I like the way it uses cheap PR replacement bulbs and the adjustable focus. It is also versatile enough to serve as a headlamp for land use. I plan to use it as a backup light running rechargeable batteries.

Thanks in advance for any response.

Thanks Brightnorm,

I've read that post about hydrogen.

I'm not too concerned though because I can get pelets from some older flashlights to absorb the gas.

I am more concerned about the waterproofing and durability of the light. The Saxo is rated to 70 meters which is deeper than I dive but Ive seen other divelights rated to go deep but leak water at just 130 ft.
