I was using my Fenix LD20 as a dive light at my friend's cottage. We were trying to find a neighbors wallet which had been dropped by a boathouse. The light worked well and we were able to find a bunch of crap - Hot Wheels, outdoor furniture, wall ornaments, etc. but no wallet. I set the light down on the dock to take a break and my friend's little brother accidentally kicked off the dock.
Where it fell is about 15 ft. deep. I tried a few times to look for it but the floor is very soft and easy to disturb, making visibility difficult. It is a mixture of silt and leaves. the fact that the light is black does not help. I don't have any scuba gear other than goggles so my time down there is limited to my lung capacity. My friend's dad suggested we take a rake down there and somehow rake up everything to the shore.
The flashlight has been there for about 48 hours now, so is it a goner? I made sure that it was screwed together tight prior to the incident. Any suggestions on how to find it?
If not, what would be a good replacement light?
