to get you through the work week and show off some friends' videography skills at a point the cave is at its yearly best.


Edit: please don't go here unless trained

Nice vis. I was there in March and it was pretty good, but that was superb.

Great video. I am trying some videoing myself so any good video is full of tips.

Never been to Eagle, would be nice to have subtitles with names of places.

Was wondering what was your lights and camera setup?

There’s two dives spliced together. Everything was filmed on either s GoPro 7 or a 9. One scooter with a pair of Big Blue 10,000 lumen, one with a pair of Keldan 15,000 (might be 18,000 but I think 15K) and one with a pair of custom LED driven off scooter battery (on par with 2x12K? would be my estimation). I can pull the driver specs if you’re inclined to DIY. If you haven’t, it’s much easier to buy off the shelf. The BB 10K are closer to (and more than likely less than) 5K lumens each. Bear in mind it’s a massive cave.

looks quite clean - is that the main passage?

I have currently a SS with Li batts and I built custom 100W HID which I fed with a bulk head connector through the delrin lid and e/o connectors (proper ones ) Now Im using LED instead. Looking to transfer the function to my Suex XK. I would greatly appreciate any info on how you got through the hull and how electrically you connected the lights (DC-DC converter etc?)
Safe diving!

P.S Lovely video!! D.S
