Light advice

Just a thought - if it applies to your diving; a coiled cable could make for a *really* bad day if you're doing dives that require running line.



Not necessarily so. It would just be a matter of having the reel in one hand and the light in the other. That should provide enolugh distance between the two to prevent any tangles.

Unless you clip off your light, line and cord are bound to be in the same vicinity at times That said, line is evil and wants to kill you. So for my purposes, I much prefer to minimize gear that has the potential to easily catch and make a mess. My line skills are "ok", but not good enough that I'd bet I'd never get a bit of loose line going

Yeah, coiled cables are a problem waiting to happen. Henrik is 100% right.
