Rating: Princeton Tec C8 Shockwave L.E.D. Light
Reviewer: Stuart Farish, Thursday, October 09, 2008
I picked up one of these lights as a replacement for a different brand C8 that failed. Its a very simple design, fewer places to fail than my other light. The switch is easy to use with either hand. The switch safety is large and not a problem even with gloves on. I found the light to be bright & even. Battery life seems to be good. After a few day time dives where I used it a lot to look in holes and a night dive Im still on the orginal batteries that came in the light. Its not a canister light, but for what it is, a C8 hand held, I like it enough that I bought a 2nd one for my wife to use.

Rating: Best light out there hands down.
Reviewer: hazen komraus, Friday, November 24, 2006 - View all my reviews
I have used this light on 5 dives so far. (Manta night dives rock!) I also bought the HID Light Cannon 100, largely seen as the best light available for under $300. This light is as bright, weighs less, doesnt need to warm up, is less delicate, a permenant bulbs, and has quadruple the battery life of the more expensive light cannon. Dont debate, i did a lot of research, the Shockwave LED is the light to buy. I might suggest buying a large pack of Ni-MH batteries online in bulk from a web dealer for the cost-savings. Excellent product: comfortable, durable, light, efficient and powerful.

Rating: This little light of mine......
Reviewer: Marty Russell, Friday, August 01, 2008 - View all my reviews
Very nice light for night diving. The first time I took it under in the dark, I was amazed how bright the LED lights are! Mine was brighter than my buddies way too expensive canister light! Illumination was bright, wide and the beam travelled far enough to see well ahead. Great for dark nooks and crannies. One suggestion would be to definitely use with a coil lanyard. The on/off switch could be better, but no big deal. The switch lock is nice to have. Overall, for the price......HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Rating: Great for Night Dives
Reviewer: Michael Bove Instructor, Thursday, August 24, 2006
the shockwave ii led is a top performer. this thing is indestructible ( i should know, ive ped it a few times and it is still going strong). for those of you who are thinking about whether or not to get an led light, stop thinking and get one. the led bulb has no filament, like a standard bulb, so they are bombproof. they also produce the same amount of light as a standard bulb, at a lower wattage. this translates to higher battery life. with an led light, how can you go wrong?

Rating: Design Problem
Reviewer: David F., Thursday, May 31, 2007
After returning from my first dive trip after getting my light, the light failed to work. Upon opening up the light I discovered that the small plastic extension piece that engages the little slide mechanism on the back of the assembly that houses the lens was broke off. The slide mechanisms position detirmines the off, low, high functions. This design arrangement appears too fragile. Plus the switch locking mechanism and the switch itself is cumbersome.

Rating: Get this light
Reviewer: Kristopher C., Sunday, March 04, 2007
I have been diving for about a year, with 5 night dives in my log. For lights, I have been begging and borrowing my buddies lights. This one by far is the best that I have tried. Since it uses regular batteries you dont have to wait for a recharge and the three L.E.D. bulbs make it brightest light in my dive group. It is small, light and very easy turn on with gloves. Finally my dive buddies envy a piece of my equipment.

Reviewer: David M., Tuesday, October 28, 2008
great piece of dive equipment. worked very well and the battery life was much longer that non LED lights. this is not one of those large heavy lights, however it gives just as much light. i used this for the lobster opener and a few nights after that without any issues. the only ones who do not like this light are the lobsters..:) for both price and performance, i would highly recommend this light to anyone.

Reviewer: Scott Rich, Wednesday, November 08, 2006 - View all my reviews
I bought this light to upgrade from the original Shockwave II. Very nice improvement and the white light from the LED is great for our local, murky waters. I took this light to 133fsw in pitch black 8 vis on a wreck and this light was real performer under the worst conditions. Lifetime Warrantee from Princeton Tek is a real bonus as well.

Great light! Very bright and white. 2 light settings. LED allow for longer battery life. I used this light on 5 continuous nights using both the low and high settings and didnt come close to having to change the batteries. Id buy this light again in a heartbeat........GP.

Bob Ward, Master Diver SSI. I received my light just intime for a wreck at 110ft. My dive buddy was so impressed with this light, We both dove the wreck that day using just this one light. It was great, very bright,light and easy to turn on and off with gloves.

Rating: Light switch
Reviewer: Mark R., Friday, November 21, 2008 - View all my reviews
Light is super bright, nice compact, handles well underwater. Light switch design I feel not the best. If you wear gloves for cold water diving, turning light on an off takes a little effort. Even with out gloves switch could have been a better design.

Rating: PrincetonTec C8 LED - great value...
Reviewer: Michael Klaver, Saturday, October 28, 2006
Great light, lots of power. Plenty bright for my night dives and light enough to bring along on day dives in dark conditions - very happy with this light, great value for the money. Brighter than my dive buddys UK C8 led

On my first night dive, I was off the coast of Bonaire. My light shown quite well compared too the rest in the group. At one point, I was seeing all the way to the floor which was a good twenty feet down.

Nice compact pistol grip light that packs the same punch as the much larger lights. LED technology is the way to go. Extended battery life will quickly justify the increased cost of the light itself.

The Shockwave LED does a great job of lighting things up. The only thing I would suggest is to put some kind of attachment on the bottom of the handle to more easily put a split-ring for a retractor.
