Does anyone have any experience with the Kraken Sports lights?

Kraken Sports Website indicates 3 models
NR-650
NR-1000
NR-1000C

I have played around with each a little in the LDS but have never used on a dive. Wondering if anyone has any experience or thoughts?

Cheers
 
We used the 1000C on a night dive during my DM class. The light works great. All 3 of us students had other lights and the Instructor had the Kraken. At 1000 lumens, it all but made our lights insignificant. It has 5 settings and claims to last 5 hours on the brightest one. It's lightweight and easy to use. I now own one myself. I'd definitely recommend checking it out!
 
I have been using a Kraken 1000 since early 2015, it is just a great light. I have used it almost every way imaginable while on diving trips and in daily use. I very seldom don't have it with we. With the hot center and large halo it is good in clear or turbid water. Often I will use it at a low power setting as in close it is to bright sometimes.The button control is easy to use and the battery level indicator is a feature that should be on all dive lights. The little travel bag it comes in is a perfect fit for the included charger, battery and light. Small, durable aluminum cleverly thought out light.
 
We sell all their photo video lights. They are well-made and designed to eliminate a lot of issues.
We have a first look review, but are testing their new 5000 lumen and 10,000 lumen Solar Flare lights right now.
