Dave and I put together another instructional video last week.


This video shows the wood gun flashlight mount.


Thanks!

A little update on this light. The light has an internal battery power sensor that displays the power setting by lighting up the switch with a different color...This display occurs ONLY when the light is turned on.

HOWEVER, we recently leaned that this power sensing feature, is active 100% of the time and will draw down the batteries during storage of several weeks/months.


In order to avoid this drain, you can unscrew the rear cap about 1/4 turn. This electrically isolates the batteries as they are no longer touch the contacts.. When you get to your dive destination.. say in the morning, screw the cap down- when you are done for the day, unscrew the cap just enough to cause the light to shut down.


This also prevents the light switch from being depressed and turning the light on in your luggage or dive bag..


Thanks!
