PATCO lights dont look very appealing. Bulky, switch is on the light head which is something that I personally wouldnt want on a HID. To easy to accidently turn off. Most of their lights are only rated to 165ft. Think they sell an inferrior product compared to Halcyon, Stealth, or Sartek (which by the way also makes PVC canisters) or Dive Rite. Plus they have a non-DIR approved green cord on one of their lights. Would have to pass on PATCO!

FIRST OFF, PATCO PRODUCTS ARE LONG LASTING, IT IS OBVIOUS THAT YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO TAKE CARE OF YOU EQUIPMENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SECOND, PATCO MAKES THEIR CANISTERS OUT OF COMPOSITE MATERIAL, WHICH IS TOP OF THE LINE. IT IS MUCH BETTER THEN PVC. I THINK THAT YOU SHOULD DO SOME RESEARCH BEFORE YOU OPEN YOUR MOUTH TO EXPRESS YOUR OPINION, AND MIGHT I STATE THAT IT IS YOUR OPINION AND NOT A FACT. DO THE RESEARCH!!!!!!
THIRD DO NOT JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER!!!!!!!!! PATCO LIGHT HEADS ARE LIGHT AND COMPACT. TAKE A LOOK AT SOME OF THE BULKY LIGHT HEADS OUT ON THE MARKET. IT WEIGHS 4 OZ.!!!!! HEAVY? ARE YOU NUTS! THE SWITCH IS THE SAME SIZE AS THE LIGHT HEAD CAN YOU SEE!!!
overall:
I AM TELLING YOU THAT SARTECK MAKES THEIR CANISTERS OUT OF ACRYLIC!!!!!!!!!WHAT IS SO GREAT ABOUT THAT!!!! IT BREAKS!!!! AND IT COSTS MORE ON TOP OF THAT!!!!
