Cave Diving Backup Lights / Rechargeable Batteries

[vioch]

Why should I bother with the batteries I use once in 3-5 years? Want neither charge them before dives, nor even think about them))) Will rather buy throw-away once a year.
Can't understand the hi-tech lovers in back-up lights. Need to be really activists to charge and maintain batteries they don't use)))
Can understand necessity of powerful rechargeable back-up light for scooter cave dives, though.

Brown would be the old halogen bulbs. The newer leds are way brighter.

Most of us have heard what "Bless your heart" means in the South. Ok, I heard not that long ago, but still.

I've exited on a Scout with an LED. It was great, plenty of light.
