Rating: This is a great buy
Reviewer: James J Melloy Jr, - View all my reviews
I have bought a number of, so called, signal lights but this one is by far the best. It is bright and flashes on and off via a bright LED light. My wife and I use them to ID each other when diving in a group. A must have for your bag. It really does work.

not bad for price
Reviewer: anthony b.,
bought 3 for my family and I. Price was good, and it could be seen underwater, but I thought it would be more bright. For the price and the security of not losing your buddy in the dark, it is a good buy

Rating: Works great for night dives
Reviewer: Willis Chung, - View all my reviews
The flashing orange indicator was very visible at night. The plastic clip that comes with the blinker feels pretty flimsy, but worked well to hook the blinker to the rubber dust cap of our regulator set, at the connection with the air cylinder. This placed the blinker up high enough to be clearly visible.
Battery life was excellent: we did 6 night/evening dives in the past two weeks and did not see any significant decrease in the blink rate to lead us to replace the batteries.

Rating: Blinking Light Sticks
Reviewer: Devonna M., - View all my reviews
This LED Light Sticks were placed on all students while diving in St. Lucia. The orange can definitely be seen and the lights worked wonderfully. There does need to be a way developed to attach the sticks to the tank rather than the bcd so that students can be seen while moving horizonally.

Rating: Largely useless for buddy identification.
Reviewer: David Lee, - View all my reviews
This product does work exactly as advertised, but I found it useless for my needs. I wanted to use it to better identify my buddy underwater. I attached them first on a D Ring on the BC, then to the tank (at the octo). For 99% of the time I could not see them on my buddy. At shallow depths they were not bright enough to be visible. At deeper depths I could see it if it was unobstructed but was unable to find a way to attach it so it wasnt obscured. The only thing I could think of is a attached to the back of the tank but there was no easy way to do this.
However they were clearly visible at deeper depths but only as long as you had a direct line of sight.

I purchased two of these light sticks, one worked great and shuts off when you unscrew the cap some, but the other remains on once the batteries are in place. Ill be asking for a replacement. They are visible and it seems they would last for several dives.

Rating: light stick stands out
Reviewer: Tony Jennings, - View all my reviews
used the orange flashing and white "continous on" stiks on a night dive with 2 buddies. Visibility of course was "0". My buddies remarked that the flashing orange was easy to see and kept the group together. Upon ascent, the orange flash was spotted by on lookers from shore. The white is OK but the orange flash really stands out

Rating: L.E.D. Kayak Light
Reviewer: Paul Nadeau,
This product is being used for a kayaking light. As a general safety feature it clips on my PFD. For general night use I have made a mast for my kayak and fitted this light into the top of the mast. This is a fantastic instrument for night kayakain at a fraction of the cost of products made for this use.

Rating: Flash on, Flash off
Reviewer: Brad Hinton, 
As far as underwater indicators go, this flashing LED tank light is about the most cost effective way to go. Inexpensive, but powerful and durable, this light will do the trick for those night divers who want to be seen. The orange/red one is surprisingly visible at 45ft. I thought the green or the white would be more visible, but the orange/red one is highly visible. This light is worth the money!

worked like a charm. It was easy to install batteries (although I wish it use less). The light is bright- I purchaset he white non-flashing version. I usually clip the sticks to the yoke on my reg. This verison does not have a leash but it was simple enough to clip it to a D-ring with the clip that came with it.
I would definitely recomend the product

Rating: Much better than a glow stick
Reviewer: Richard Giles, - View all my reviews
I bought two of these. Loaned the red one to a fellow diver and he was easy to spot. Much better than a one time use glow stick. The little plastic buckle seems a bit shakey BUT no problems with it.... These are also just the right size to store in the pen holder in your dive log.
Thanks - Good product

Rating: No more throw away chemical sticks
Reviewer: Mike D.,
In thinking about getting one of these LED light sticks, I couldnt help but remember all the times I opened a chemical stick package only top find a dud, and then hoping my buddy had a spare (I always carry more then one but opened three duds in a row one time). The news that dive operators in the Bahamas also do not allow the chemical sticks anymore and the great sale price here was all I needed to finally get one of these reusable LED lights. The only hard part was deciding what color to get. The only negative thing I can say is what others have noted, that they sink, making the placement on your BC/reg a tough decision since it could become obscured if they settle down in between things. At this (sale) price though, it makes sense to have at least two of these, one on the front of the BC and one on the tank valve area as usual so I will be buying several more.

Rating: Pretty good tank light.
Reviewer: Robert S.,
This is a pretty good replacement for chemical glow sticks. I had bought the constant orange LED and it worked very well. I was told I stood out from the other divers. The only problem is that the clip is made out of plastic so I question its durability, also its kind of a pain in the butt to put in the small batteries.

Reviewer: Christopher Hedger, - View all my reviews
This little thing is so bright it causes me to cast a shadow at night onto the bottom. the batteries are easy to install and last a really long time, there is a beam of light that comes out the end of this as well that can be used to read gauges. my wife got upset because i kept swimming behind her to read my gauges. then I wore it and she understood. love this little light! Keep in mind i live in Hawaii and we have incredibly clear water.

Rating: GOOD PRODUCT OVERALL
Reviewer: JAMES SHERMAN,
I purchased this dive marker in white, blue and orange. All are very visable, but white is the most visable followed by orange then blue...I didnt go with red figuring that red light is absorbed the fastest under water. To attach it to our regulators, I used zip ties with the little screw holes/eyelets. That way I can leave the zip tie on all the time and just clip the dive marker on when I need it. I have used it on 5 night dives so far and am pleased.

Get one of these rather than use disposable glo sticks (which FYI have been BANNED in Bonaire - you are forced to use a usable light stick instead). Very easy to use and comes in different colors so you can stand out in a crowd. Inexpensive, so for even better visibility, use 2 or 3 sticks to really stand out.

Rating: Good Buddy Marker
Reviewer: Steven R., - View all my reviews
This light provides a nice balance between visibility and brightness. The light is bright enough to see, but not overpowering and obnoxious, which is good for a personal marker light (unless youre trying to keep track of a retard that doesnt understand the buddy concept). I use this light for night, wreck and cave/cavern dives. I would not use this light for high visibility requirements like a rescue light or marking entry points.

Reviewer: James J.,
we use these light sticks mainly to identify each other. of the 6 - 8 products ive tried, this one is the hardiest. most break after a few dives. the non-blinking model lasts for 4 - 6 dives on one set of batteries (if you remember to turn it off right away) choose the blinking type it lasts several times longer, albeit the blinking can be a bit annoying.

Rating: Light Stick - well constructed
Reviewer: Perry F., - View all my reviews
Used it on a pair of nights dives and it worked very well. Bought the strobe (white light) model for my daughter & I. Gets your attention very easily under water. Did an "exercise" where all the divers turned off their primary lights and the strobes became that much more noticable.
I am still working on a better mounting location/method as the light sinks. The light sometimes finds its way behind the hoses so it becomes less visible to other divers.

Rating: Good chem-stick replacement
Reviewer: Michael B.,
the light stick is smaller than a chem-stick, and is more than bright enough to allow others to see it on a night dive. i have only gotten to use it on one dive so far no problems, but i cant vouch for the battery life. as long as it lasts as long as the specs state, it will make up for the higher initial cost over the chem-sticks. i had a glo-tube as well, i like it but apparently misplaced it when i moved last summer. i liked the glo-tube i had better just because it did have the ability to program it to do strobing, but i dont know that that was really worth the extra $$$. the glo-tube also seemed like it was less flimsy, although i dont think the light stick is going to break. both the light stick and the glo-tube have one common flaw - its easy to forget to turn them off (i caught the light stick at the last second. i had to replace the batteries on a glo-tube after it was left on for about 48 hours straight, but it was still glowing).

Rating: excellant
Reviewer: Thomas Cooke, - View all my reviews
I have several light sticks, and when I saw this one on Scuba.com., I only bought one. After receiving it, I had to buy more. I have used it several times and they are better than any light stick on the market. So for Christmas, I had to share one with a friend. To be really honest, I have a couple of light sticks which cost more, and they look cheaply made. Even the price is right on this LED Light Stick. However, I do like the solid light better than the flashing one, but I feel it is just a preferance thing.

Rating: Ok night dive beacon
Reviewer: daniel mchaney, - View all my reviews
This light works ok. I bought the red flashing type hoping it would help distinguish me from the crowd for my buddy. But it ended up just being just OK. First off red was the wrong choice, red is the first collor absorbed by water so the beacon light wouldnt be as brilliant from a distance as say blue. My buddy mentioned that the blinking was a set back because if he was scanning for me, my beacon was easily missed. So Id say if you have to buy this one go for green or White solid. It does sink so I had to mount it centered with my white tank for it to have maximum effect. I would not buy again, I would go with the Trident Gloo Toob. My brother was using the Gloo Toob in blue and it was really brilliant. At the surface while facing him it illuminated his black hoses with a noticable blue glow and down below you could see him as far as his primary could be seen. I give the gloo toob 5 stars.
Hope this helps

We like these light sticks. They work well, and are bright enough for night diving. They are not wasteful like the chemical sticks, and unlike the chemical sticks they are not banned on Bonaire and other destinations. I would have given it five stars, except for the fact that when my wife twisted hers in the wrong direction trying to turn it off, it opened and the small batteries jumped out of it like they were trying to escape. It is a minor complaint, though, and we plan on continuing to dive with these light sticks.

The light stick got baptized into action on a night on the Stetson Bank, Flower Gardens in the Gulf of Mexico. This formation is made of clay sprinkled with coral and visibility can get slightly murky. I bought the Light Stick for my wife and I could spot her easily as the brightness of the light make a sharp outline. You can tell by just holding the thing that it is well made.
