Hi folks. I am taking on a little project that requires modifying a dive light. I would like to find a light under $25 since this is the first run after all, and i would like to switch out the LED to a blue one in the 450-470 nm range. I am pretty sure this can be done, however i have never done this, so i will be using the forum for reference and help from you guys with more experience.
To better scope out the project, I will not be diving extreme depths, 60 feet at max, light will be used to give a different contrast to underwater videos/photos. I don't really want to use a blue filter, i don't think it would have the same effect.
I have looked around and so far found these flashlights that look like they may work,

The link above is for a laser pointer but if you select the last item all the way to the right you will see a flashlight.
I looked at amazon first because i can get the light sooner, but I will look at other sites and compare shipping time vs cost savings and see if its worth it.
Do you guys think these can be modded for what i need? Would you suggest another route?
Thanks in advance.
