Rating: Genuine Fish Burner !
Reviewer: Robert M D.,
Out of the box, 2 night dives in Roatan, Honduras. Mainly used the low light setting which was plenty of night light and gives you extended battery life. Only minor complaint is on/off/lowbeam/hi-beam switch worked hard and required two hands adjustment. I couldnt just click between the beams with one hand on the light. Ditched a 4-D cell light in favor of this one with 4 C cells and LED light. Clearly an improvement in weight, ease of handling, and underwater light. She wants to replace her old style 4 D cell primary diving light as well, and were going to order another one of these for her. Good piece of equipment !

Took it out for a try after receiving it. Worked well,light was bright,not as heavy as I expected it to be.Would have liked the switch to be a little easier to use but not a big issue. Seems to be a good product for the price.

Rating: Princeton Tec Shockwave LED Dive Light
Reviewer: Barbara T.,
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.

Reviewer: william hanson,
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.,
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,
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.

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.,
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.

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.
