I'm headed to Bonaire on the 22nd, and am looking into buying a night dive light instead of trying to rent. I'm told the resort is full and I don't want to risk not being able to get one, and if I use it several times I've gone halfway to paying for one.
I did some reading, and while the HID torches look nice, I fear for the bulb on the trip. My LDS sells the Ikelite RD8 and it looks like a solid unit that won't break the bank, however one of the reviews I read reports it has as small and splotchy hot spot.
Does anyone have experience with this light? Is it a problem?
What other recommendations might you have, keeping in mind I don't have alot of time to wait for mail order.
