Found: i-Torch Video Pro 4 Dive Light

[Buadhai]

On a recent dive here in Thailand I found an i-Torch Video Pro 4 dive light. It looks to have been under water for several months and is coated with the expected marine life. However, the interior looks pristine and was bone dry. The battery looks brand new, but is fully discharged so I am unable to test the light itself. The switch seems to work and shows not the slightest bit of damage or corrosion.

If you lost this torch please PM me with some sort of proof of ownership/purchase along with the precise dive site where it was lost. I'll figure out how to get it back to you.

Did you find it in Sameasan? My friend lost one there that we never found on koh rong Nong

That's the spot. Please PM me with contact info for your friend.

Will do, I just messages him as he is working out of Thailand at the moment. Amazing that you found it, we searched the day after losing in strong current and must have done 20 dives since in that area alone

It was pretty much buried in the sand at about 22 meters. Only the back end stuck out. I thought it was a piece of pipe at first. When I disturbed it a bit the lanyard and swivel hook appeared. I mainly brought it to the surface because I thought the swivel hook might be of use.

If you want, I can just mail it to you and you can decide how best to return it to the owner.

It was only a day old! We searched a lot but could only get on there in strong current, thought it was lost to the 'hole' lol

Amazing. That was lost in May of last year. Really thought it was lost forever

Mark, are you the owner?

Amazing that it was found, but also amazing that the owner was found. I figured it probably belonged to a tourist, long gone. I really didn't think I'd get a response from the Scuba Board Thailand posting.

Yeah Mark is the owner Amazing

Yes I am the owner, even found my receipt glad I ordered it online. Lost it the first time out on a twilight dive before a night dive. We went looking for it again the next day but a ripping current in sidemount screwed up our search. I am currently in South Africa working. We will make a plan
