Howdy folks,

Please brag about your DPV light setups here. Looking for an advice to setup lights for cave diving on a Suex XJ.

Thank you!
 
the best thing I can recommend for cave diving is to not put lights on your DPV. They're great if you have video lights and are using them to just hold onto them, but DPV headlights in a cave are incredibly irritating and they also make weighting/trimming the DPV a righteous PITA so best recommendation is just to not do it. This is one of those things that we have tried, it doesn't work, and while you will see them on DPV's for photoshoots, they are not headlights.
 
Nothing to brag about...
Just an updated old system. Runs about 10watts total which is plenty.
Believe the chips are rated 50 watts each.
