Great service and product- thanks!
This light has been Bigblue's best-selling light for the last 5+ years and shows no signs of slowing down. It's also a trusted back-up light for tech divers. This is the perfect light for general purpose or to peer into crevices to find hidden critters! Light provides 1200 lumens in level IV at 6500°K color temperature, has a narrow 10° penetrating beam angle from an XML LED. Four power settings to reduce intensity and increase battery life. The light provides 1200 lumens (Level IV), 600 lumens (Level III) 300 lumens (Level II) and 120 lumens (level I). There is also an SOS function for emergency signaling. The lights burn times are 2-hours (level IV), 5-hours (level III), 10-hours (level II) and 20-hours (level I). Power is supplied by the rechargeable lithium-ion 18650 battery pack. A color-coded battery indicator lets you know when to recharge the battery for optimum use.
Built-to-last with the housing made from anodized aluminum means rugged dependability. Lens is made from tempered optical glass and the light is depth rated to 330' (100m). The light measures (L x Dia.) 5.5" x 1.3" (139.8mm x 33.2mm), weighs 5.93 oz. (168 g) with battery is -2.7 oz. (-76 g) underwater. Included with the Bigblue AL1200NP-II 1200 Lumens LED Light is a roll top dry bag, battery charger, wrist lanyard and owner's manual. The Bigblue AL1200NP-II 1200 Lumens LED Light is a great primary recreational dive light.

Can this mount on a Big Blue goodman glove with the plastic mounting mechanism meant for lights that can attach ball mounts?
Mario C
most of the time ther is a way... for a glove mount could be to many amounts.., not sure what glove you have.. if there is a female 1in ball mount receptor you could use something like a ball to ys and the clip mount below... my recommendation.. would be the glove for it.
hope it helps

What is the best way to attach lanyard?
DAVID L
Sharon, I wish I could simply post 1 single photo. I wouldn't have to say a word....
Let me try to explain it clearly.
I have a bulletproof lanyard system for you!
Used by skiers for gloves, Ironworks for wrenches/hand tools (as well as their own bodies), mtn climbers for tools. People who work in high places, who's life (or other's lives) depend on a 100% foolproof system for them NOT DROPPING ANYTHING!
Divers also should have everything secured 100%
I call these "Idiot Straps" Lol
I use a length of 3mm nylon cord 24" long
1 plastic cord stop, a 1" SS split ring and a 2" SS carabiner. MUST all be stainless!
Fold the cord in half and tie the ends into a simple knot close to the end. Slide the cord stop onto the doubled cord and slide down to the knot.
Pull the cord straight and tie another simple knot about 4" from the loop end (8" away from the knot end). Now you have a 12" long cord (doubled) with a knot and cord lock on one end and a knot about 8" away from that end.
Then slip the loop end into one of the holes in the tail cap and loop the cord thru itself. Now the cord is positively attached to the light.
The split ring goes in the second hole in the tailcap. The carabiner stays on the split ring clippedcto your BC when your not in the water, then you unclip it and put it on you wrist once you're down and start the dive.
To put it on, unclip from your BC (leave the carabiner on your BC) slide the cord lock up, away from the knot enough to slide your hand in. Slip your hand onto the loop. Then, pull the slide lock back down to your wrist to tighten the loop tight around your wrist tight enough that it cannot fit over your hand!!. Zero chance of it coming off! You have some slack cord. The ring hangs off the light but its small and necessary as you can't easily get the nylon cord in/out of a carabiner underwater to un/receipt it to youself. The ring makes it super fast/easy. No fumbling. No dropping
I hop that's descriptive enough to paint a picture for you.

First and foremost, congratulations. You have a great dive light. What I did was use a zip tie and a retractor. I keep the light attached to my BCD and pull and hold when I need it. Be creative and think outside the box to suit your needs. I hope I helped. Be well and stay safe.

Pull the cord through then slip the flashlight through the loop. I typically shorten the cord so that is does not dangle as much when not in my hand, this makes it easier to use, harder to loose, and reduces the chance of whacking the light on something.
Sharon S
Yes. This new model has two holes. I can use one but thought there was a reason for two. Not in literature.
MIKE W
Good point. The metal surrounding the holes is very thin. On one of my lights, the metal around second hole has already broken so it might be a good idea to slide the cord through both holes in hopes of preventing the metal from failing sooner.
JAMES L
If you have good buoyancy and carry nothing else the lanyard fits nicely around your wrist and you tighten it up with a sliding lock. You can also attach an toggle snap to the lanyard and attach it to the front of your BC. The lanyard is very good quality and very functional.
Christian L
the tail cap has a hole for that specific purpose
Sharon S
This model had as two side holes.
Shopper
is there a lock function on the light so it doesn't come on in your bag?
NICHOLAS N
There is not. I can attest, it does melt a hole in it's dry bag if it gets kicked on in there!
GREGORY M
No. I take the battery out for travel. Overall, I’m very happy with this torch.
MICHAEL M
No
STEPHEN M
Honestly,I don't know. I keep batteries separate until ready to use.
ANDREY G
What is the difference between this model II and the previous one?
BRAD L
We (spouse and I) have one of each. I would go for the new model, as it is more compact and comes with a dry bag. The bag is actually large enough to hold both lights, charger, and our three wrist computers; very handy. I wish the newer model would have come out a year earlier, when I purchased the first one.
DAVID L
Overall, it's the same light. The head on the new model is about 4-5mm shorter and a few mm smaller diameter. The tail portion is exactly the same. I noticed a very slight change to the switch otherwise, the same great light just a touch smaller.
STEPHEN M
To be honest, I'm not sure. I saw the two and went with the less expensive one. I am VERY happy with the light. Has great run time and very comfortable. I've used it all summer about 45 dives and I would buy it again. I hope this helps.
