Rating: Princeton Tec Shockwave LED Dive Light
Reviewer: Barbara T., Wednesday, January 11, 2012
Although expensive it is really well made and the color makes it easy to see even in poor visibility waters. Wrist strap is good size - not too big and not too small. Light has good power and it is not too heavy or bulky. Good purchase.

Rating: Turn " Night to Light"
Reviewer: william hanson, Monday, April 12, 2010
I am very satisfied with this light. Why did I get it? My light was an oceanic ocean pro. 25 years old, 6 volt battery, and just wore out. I was optimistic that such a compact light could deliver so many lumens, be so compact and work as described in the literature, delivered to my door in less than a week, with batteries included, free shipping. AND IT WORKED AT A 115 FOOT depth on two boat dives on the same day........... Love it, Bill

Rating: bright for less
Reviewer: john u., Thursday, December 17, 2009
Princeton Tec Shockwave is a bright though somewhat heavy (with 8 C cells) light that really lights up overhangs and reef walls. I would recommend it for anyone not concerned about the extra bulk and weight

Rating: Excellent Light
Reviewer: Michael Tuvim, Friday, July 31, 2009
Excellent strong and pure white (!) light. The beam is broad. One could possibly call it not tightly focused. Personally, I consider it a plus for a night dive: it allows you to see more in a broader field of view rather then focus on an illuminated point in the sea of blackness.

Rating: Lots of light
Reviewer: JOE E., Monday, June 08, 2009 - View all my reviews
The Princeton Tec Shockwave LED light is by far the best underwater light I have ever owned. Its penetration on a night dive is far superior to ordinary lights. A bit heavy with the 8 batteries but the hand hold is sufficient to balance the light. Great light!!!

Rating: Lumens for price amazing!
Reviewer: Raymond Y., Sunday, May 24, 2009
Some divers go crazy for the most expensive products out there assuming they must be the best. This light is a rare exception that you get what you pay for. For the money, this light blows away HID and canister lights 3 to 4 times its cost. Princeton is also amazing to work with on warranty claims, had another light earlier from them that leaked, sent it in and they sent me a brand new one, no questions asked! This new 400 lumen model is outstanding for $100.

Rating: Great light
Reviewer: Bob Ottiano, Friday, May 22, 2009 - View all my reviews
This was the 3rd. light I bought, and is The best! I could have saved a ton of money if I just went with this light. As soon as you pick it up you can tell its just the right one. The way it feels in your hand, it fits like it was made just for you. If your looking for a good light go with this one.Dont do what I did and try something else,save your money and go with the Princeton Tec and you wont be sorry.

Rating: Bright light
Reviewer: brad smith, Tuesday, June 02, 2009
Tested it out on a night dive last week and it worked great. It was far brighter than any other lights on the dive. LED technology is the way to go, no more worry about replacing bulbs and battery life is so much better. The light was so bright that it will wash out photos at night if pointed directly on the subject. Hint: save and reuse the cardboard between the batteries and the bulb. It should help preserve your batteries during storage.
