And its made in the UK!....er US. I bet the Dutch 'torch' uses less energy than the energy consumptive US version...j/k

Personally, I use the GreenForce lights (close to The Netherlands) and UK lights. I wonder what the weight of these new lights will be....good on the end of arms for video?

Guess not,UK has not,will not make any cablelights,so on a videoarm it'll be just to heavy.It's gonna be in the C8 size.

And the "UK"burntime of 2H must be good for 2 dives.

I'm not disappointed.

A nicely focused beam, bright white light. Plenty of power for two hours of diving.

The light has been performing brilliantly so far.

I did run into a slight problem on my last dive however.

I have the strap attached to my left wrist and while I was busy inflating my SMB (doing a [-]blue[/-] green water free ascent), the light was dangling. Even though it's not really heavy, it still annoyed me.

I could put the handle in my harness belt or add a boltsnap and clip it off to a D-ring but I'm not sure that would be to my satisfaction.

Any comments or other suggestions how to remedy this issue?
