i used this light on a night dive in Honduras, it is awesome, some look at this light as a backup. I used it as my primary. Glad i bought it. Provides good light and is compact. I carry it all the time in my BC pocket.

Bought two of these lights for a recent dive trip to Domican Republic. One light failed on the first dive. The seal let sea water into the housing and the ruined the light. The other one worked great and was far brighter than the light I had to borrow from the Dive Shop.
Hopefully I can exchange the bad one.

Reviewer: barry beheler, - View all my reviews
This light is great for the brightness of the beam and the lenght of battery life. It fits your hand well and is easy to turn on and off. If it continues to perform as it has so far, I would give it a 5 star rating.

Rating: Over all good light
Reviewer: Darren L.,
This is one of the brightest lights I have ever used. I am a commercial diver so I use this light on a daily basis. So far it has stood up to every day abuse. The only reason i didnt give it 5 stars is the battery life. I can only get an 8 hour day out of it in cold water, but for most people that should be more than long enough for their needs

Reviewer: Harlon P., - View all my reviews
Just purchased this light and used it on a 65 dive in water with less than 5 of visibility. It worked great! Very bright, focused beam made it easy to read my gauges. Very sturdy and the button that locks the switch off will ensure that it doesnt go on in my gear bag. Because of the LED format, it does not get hot. A great choice for a dive light!

Reviewer: Darren S., - View all my reviews
Great light, good levels of illumination. On-Off switch has a locking feature that could be a bit more positive (bumped light on in BCD pocket and didnt find out for a while) but this light didnt depleate the batteries as a conventional light would so it worked out well. I really like the feature of sealing the case and then NOT twisting the lens (Leakage point in past dive lights) to turn it off or on.

Rating: Great light
Reviewer: Sean McSharry,
Took this with me on 10 dives including one night dive. It puts out a lot of light in a very small package. Nice strong white light. I think this could be used as a primary light and was very handy to have on my BC for looking in caves and nooks during the day.

Rating: Bright idea this flashlight!
Reviewer: Kevin Katchmar, - View all my reviews
Long lasting and real bright. This light is in between a spot and a flood so it illuminates a nice wide path. Its a little bulky for a pocket flashlight but the extra batteries give peace of mind when youre in a dark spot for a long time.

Rating: Great Light (but check it first!)
Reviewer: Nancy G., - View all my reviews
our first light failed about three minutes into its first use on a night snorkel fortunately, we had the little suprema mini that came with it as backup. i had applied a light layer of silicone "grease" to the threads and o-ring as described in the manual before use. three attempts to "rehabilitate" the light as described in the manual failed, but it was promptly and cheerfully replaced by scuba.com. when the light worked it was great (bright light, easy to handle) and another couple on our trip had the same light and had no trouble with it. i guess the moral is to check your light before you go!

Rating: Princeton Tec Torrent 3Watt L.E.D. Light
Reviewer: don r.,
I had bought the Tec Torrent 3 Watt L.E.D. Light That i love because its bright and small enough to put into your BCD pocket.The other brand that i had from a diffent shop did me no good at night dive. It was not bright and to big to handle. This one was great and easy to handle.
Thank You

sean:
own a Princeton Tec Torrent LED light. Probably 4 + years old. apparently broke bulb. Can I buy just a new bulb? Thx

:
We do not carry the LED replacement for the Torrent. You might want to contact the manufacturer directly for information on replacement bulbs or possibly a warranty replacement. http://www.princetontec.com/?q=contact_form/contact_us
jeff:
your site advertises this light as 95 lumen and other sights list it as 126 lumens. Is there a mistake somewhere?
Bob (Certified Scuba Instructor at Scuba.com)
:
It is indeed 126 Lumens according to the manufacturer. We simply have old information that will be corrected when we have IT staff this week.
