I recently bought (on eBay) a canister light. American Underwater Lightning & Equip, now out of business. It looked OK on the picture but when I got the light... It's huge. The canister is more than 1' long and 5" wide. And it weights (with a LA battery, what should I expect) about 20#.
The head is good, halogen 50W, I think I'll be able to put a WA ballast + HID lamp in it.
All the cords/switches work fine too. Battery hold great charge.
1. Should I just get a smaller canister (DIY/buy something similar), put NiMH battery pack and enjoy my HID light or just toss it away and buy a new light ?
2. Is it possible at all to dive with this monster and how is it done?
3. Any other good uses?
Thank ya all.
