Considering battery longevity, water resistance, light output, and most importantly overall durability; what is the best strobe on the market today? Any help with insight would be greatly appreciated.
What's the best u/w strobe?

OP
More specifically, I am looking for something to attach to the lower portion of the anchor line to have a light beacon for diver's during a night dive. I would probably use it 2-3 times a week...

I had one for 15 years, and it just now flooded, and it was my screwup.

I like the double o-rings... most stobes don't seem to have them... The price tag is a little scary... I might be better off to buy three others for that ones price tag of $75.95... How did you end up flooding it?

There was crud on the o-ring when I changed batteries out of if. Really, there wasn't that much water in there, just enough to fog up the lens, but it must have been enough to put it over the edge. I think that, plus it just being really old, finally killed it.
The 200 version is very good too, and it's a little less expensive.
