Review on ๐Ÿ”ฆ ORCATORCH D550 Scuba Dive Light, 1000 Lumens Waterproof Diving Flashlight, IPX-8 Night Dive Torch 150 Meters Submersible Light with 2Pcs 18650 Battery and Charger by Richard Koh

Revainrating 5 out of 5

High quality bright white light that penetrates muddy water easily.

Well designed dive light that has everything I need: hard carrying case, two batteries, charger, extra o-rings, lanyard, latch and hand strap so I had multiple options for attaching the light during the dive. I ended up attaching the latch clasp to the lantern with a short piece of string so I could attach it to one of my D-rings or a strap on my wrist while using it. My favorite feature is the easy-to-find magnetic button on the back, which is easy to use with 7mm gloves. If you've ever experienced a power outage during a dive and had to reach for your backup, you know how difficult it can be to find that little button or turn your head when it's pitch black. A bright white beam with a well-focused center beam helps penetrate cloudy water. My last light was a bit yellow and doesn't penetrate as far as this one. The light kept my entire 1+ hour high altitude dive and it works great the entire time. I have not tested the specified 2 hours burning time. As others have said the charger works great but you need to make sure the battery is secure. If you have multiple batteries that need charging, you can purchase one of the 4 (or 8) slot smart chargers so you can charge everything at once, but the included charger will do. A nice safety feature is that the light comes on when a new battery is installed. This way you can make sure everything is working properly before diving.

Pros
  • Pretty impressive
Cons
  • old
