Submited By: Scott M. on 05/03/2012 I got two of these a few years ago (not from DRIS, unfortunately), after doing my AOW class night dive, and have used them on every night dive since. I usually hang it on the back of my tank strap and put it on the slow strobe, and nobody has ever had any trouble finding me, even through heavy silt. I even started hanging my spare on my usual dive buddy, since he likes to hover slightly over and behind me. I can see the strobe flash against the water without needing to roll over and look for it.
These things are very bright, and after accidentally dropping my HP130 on it, I can say they're very tough. I have the blue and green versions, but plan on getting red. They're so bright that they'll wash out smaller dive lights and kill your night vision.
