I thought the same thing, but I took it to 510meters and it did just fine.
Seriously I think $120, but we dive in a dark lake, helps us know when the floor is coming up so we put on the brakes and avoid a silt out mess. It outshines the OMS, and I like the switch action, worth the cash. Someone told me, this is the Coast Gaurd's prefered strobe.
Where do you connect this? I have seen some attach them to their 1st stage and turn it on for the entire dive. I have seen others attach them to their BC's and only use them in an emergency.
Looks like a GREAT safety item and a great item for black water diving.
from what ive read this, AQ4, seems to be perhaps the best on the market, 500mtrs, visible up to 10kms on a clear night, 48GBP, it looks kinda big tho, and i wish it ran on lithiums instead of a standard C cell...might get one anyway...
a C battery will last for a long time. It's not like a dive light where you will be using it all the time.
Found them for $99 bucks
Just after I bought them for $85 bucks this AM. I see the price went up to $99...
I knew I should have bought more than 3...
Shoulda, coulda, woulda... Where't that Whambulance?
