Light And Motion Shutting Down

[Whitrzac]

Dear customers,

Due to many factors, Light & Motion, a US manufacturer of dive, bike, photography and video lights is closing its operations. Over our 35 years in business, we have delivered some amazing products and enjoyed innovating to solve customer problems while building products in the US.

The challenges of being a US manufacturer are significant and the political winds, regardless of the talk, have been against US manufacturing, which continues its decline. We designed our lights to provide many years of continued use and we thank you all for your support over the years. We are not able to provide service, but some of our dealers are able to repair lights, including Backscatter.

Sincerely,
Daniel Emerson
CEO

Light & Motion | The Leader in Portable Lighting Innovation Since 1989

Light & Motion and StellaPro are committed to building products with integrity. Designed by users in our California warehouse, our LED lights are built and tested with close attention to quality. Our lights are powerful, lightweight, and durable. We stand by our products with a two-year warranty.

Thats sad to see for sure.

This is a major bummer. They made some stellar products across their lines.

And I just bought a couple of their lights.

 

[Anbaric Cog]

Very sad. A very solid company
You’ll be missed

Sad news. I've got several bike lights that's I've used for many years.

Shame. I got a couple of their lights in 2014 and still going, albeit with reduced burn times.

I never got to use my Gobe 800 on a dive since I lost it on BART. But, I love my Viz bike headlight. Y’all will be missed.

Bummer to see L&M closing down. I have been using their bike lights for over 15 years and their dive lights for over 10 years. Their lights are second to none. I had a good exchange with Daniel Emerson last spring as they were exploring new battery packs. I knew they were probably struggling as I received lots of adverts for lights this past year.

Really sad to see them go, they've been a staple in the dive light world. I have some from many years ago that are still kicking, they made great products.
