But Jax...what are you going to wrap your long hose around?!?!?!
I prefer long burn times for the eventual Deco. Ever tried to do 1:30 minutes deco in a black cave where you can't even see your buddy? Even back up lights won't work there.
Really, it boils down to the fact that they aren't solving any problems technical divers have. We already have lights that have better beams for cave, wreck, and murky water. We already have lights with long run times. We already have lights with better depth ratings. We already have lights with proven reliability. We already have lights produced by people who do the dives we do and who understand what we actually need.
Has anyone seen Intova at the NACD convention? CDS?

This presumes use as a PRIMARY. Use as a backup is a totally different game.
