Cool. What part of the world are those caves in?
Did you have to bring a giant waterproof bag full of spare cells?

Aha, about 100 bars left as far as I can see on your pressure guage - Following the "rule of thirds" you must be on your way back to the entrance right? :naughty:
I've had my U15 with me on the last couple of dives, so I updated my mini review: http://www.candlepowerforums.com/vb/showthread.php?p=1532487#post1532487

Jan, you are right, I was about to go out. Looking at the position and configuration of tubes you can see that it is not my usual equipment.
Pics were taken at
http://empresas.servicios.retecal.es/rioseras/espeleobuceo/pozoazul.htm and http://empresas.servicios.retecal.es/rioseras/espeleobuceo/barbancho.htm
Both in Burgos, Spain.

No one ever said everyone has a need for a Barbolight. In fact, people have said exactly the opposite. The best is never inexpensive. For land torches, it could be argued that Surefire gets the honor. For water, i'd say Barbolight and Tektite.

I'd say cave diving is one of the more extreme applications for flashlights. Underwater, often very cold temperatures, rough treatment (rock contact guaranteed 🙂) ... What would you call extreme use?

Whilst the Fliklite was Current I enjoyed a little bit of extreme punishments (The Fliklite that is
)
1st Pic the M@g did not do to well under the Russian T64 Tank, The Flik still worked although a little scared. Bear in mind the 1st Fliklites had a wall thickness of 7mm. I have a movie somewhere :thinking:
2nd Pic Again due to wall thickness FLik could with stand heat well.
3rd Pic Flik was the only light I can thing of that you could turn on & off whilst frozen in a block of ice. Use Full Hey!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Flik was never so extreme to try caving

I haven't done anything too extreme, but lots of lights in my collection have pretty hairy pasts. Frequently involving attitude adjustment and personality correction, plus a high speed chase or two.
