There's nothing wrong with your current touch judging by your profile pic! .Hi guys ..
Starting out , pretty new to diving, am looking for a reasonable touch
We intend to be diving in different visibilities, and will be doing a fair bit of underwater boat maintenance , need to be able to photo and video hulls , so i am looking for a torch/light which is going to last and be pretty universal , something that we can use for other dives too
I have seen cheap eBay specials which ...look like they won't last very long at all , have seen some very expensive canister lights which is a bit more than id like to spend ...
I have seen some by orcatorch which look good and at reasonable prices tho still on the expensive side ...
The canister light would look good with my back plate and wing tho ...
thoughts please ..
Might be worth popping into your local dive centre to try a few out. I've often found torches quite subjective based on your requirements. Some high powered handhelds can be pretty heavy and unwieldy, whilst a cannister light may be a bit excessive for your present needs. You can always start handheld and delegate that to backup if you do go cann light in the future.
