Terrible Lighting, Poor Performance

As an underwater photography enthusiast, I was excited to try this product. Unfortunately, it was a huge disappointment. The lighting produced was subpar, leaving my photos with a murky look. Through trial and error, I found that adjusting the settings on my camera did little to help. While the product claims to be high quality electronics, I would not recommend it to any fellow photographers.

Pros
  • None
Cons
  • Poor lighting, disappointing performance

Good light, insanely expensive patented battery

light seems to work with all features as advertised, haven't taken it underwater yet. I deduct two stars for the insanely expensive branded battery. Anyone know where to get replacement batteries? It appears that a standard Li-Ion battery was housed in a branded triangular case. Selling extra batteries for $130 is a crime. It looks about the same size as the 32650 Li-ion batteries in my other dive lights.

Pros
  • camera and photo
Cons
  • safety

Insanely bright at full power!

This light is insanely bright, no one can imagine what 3500 lumens looks like until you see it. bright wrong. In fact, they're roughly equivalent to this light's 800 lumen spot mode, which is good enough, but man. Those 3500 lumens are crazy! So far I've only tried it outdoors and in my in-ground pool and at full power it lit everything up like a wide projector. This light is even more powerful than the built in light in my pool, no kidding! I made a short video showing the comparison, it's…

Pros
  • Underwater Light
Cons
  • Operating Speed
