Another fine Orchatorch product. Simply a sturdy, compact, reliable backup light.

It's a nice small light to use as a backup to my 3000 lumen on for lower light dives or just as one to have on hand on any dive that doesn't use much space.

The light is fantastic, just not a fan of the "switch" Because the switch is not a switch, but a "twist", turning this light on and off requires both hand. If you're doing photography or video, this is a bit of a problem. I ended up buying another orcatorch...one with a physical on/off button. Ill probably keep this light as a backup....it really is a great light, if you aren't doing video, or you happen to be an octopus ;)

a great flashlight for murky water and shines a long distance too. the battery lasts a really long time but it does charge pretty slow. but just put the battery on the charger the night before your dive and you?ll be fine.

Took on a lobster trip as my primary lite. Can?t say it was much brighter than my other 500 lumen lite, but having a rechargeable battery is a plus and it?s light weight is nice

Great light with lots of lumen power, small size, easy to hold and pocket with lanyard. Lost my last one so I bought another. Be careful though as the charger cord they send doesn't always fit the charger plug hole in the battery holding compartment

It’s a good little light. The battery seems to last as described, it feels like it’s well-made, the on/off twist is good and positive. Makes for an awesome backup light and not a bad primary light for recreational use. I would buy it again. Great value. The red color is more pink than red but other than that I have no complaints.

Great light for the money. Lasted many dives in Cozumel and Galapagos. Battery lasts well, easy to turn on/off. Great light for swim thru’s, highlighting interesting points. It’s not a photo light but very good for general use. Don’t understand negative reviews.

We used this light as our main light on all of our night dives in Bonaire. Never failed us and provided great light, I would recommend this light to any one.

This is a great light for the price. It is perfect for day time use or as a back up on a night dive.

Very bright and narrow beam is great for exploring. Not great for video or pictures given the narrow beam. Lasts well over an hour.

The Orcatorch was much brighter than the other dive light used that night. The Orcatorch was easy to control in the water, and easily secured.

I was only able to use this on one night dive, but it did it's job. At first it was a little cumbersome to get the twist on/off together, but I easily adapted. I didn't have any concerns with it. The beam is quite direct. Overall, I would recommend it.

Outer finish corroded severely after first dive in Cozumel. Always rinse gear well but didn't seem to help on this light. Item returned via Leisure Pro to manufacturer. Received store credit 3 months later. Wouldn't recommend although others appear to have good luck with them.

Absolutely Love these lights! I have 5 of them now. I have 3 mounted as my primary light on my hand, and 2 back up in my drysuit thigh pockets.

Perfect for a nIght dive in Cozumel. Very small but powerful light. My fellow divers were impressed. Beam traveled about 20' before dying out in 65+ viz. NOTE: Octopus hate this light.

This little torch is very powerful. And, it's light in weight. It has a turn the head off-and-on. I don't like that too much. But this design only allows one entry of water...a switch in another place would add a second "hole." A little pricey but it really shines!

This is a great dive light. Small and fits in BC pocket easily. Lanyard keeps it secure. Great light color and beam. Can turn itself on due to pressure of depth.

Very simple to operate, its a twist on/off style. Its rechargeable, its bright, its a flood beam, its small, light, and comes with a lanyard. Great price and perfect as a backup to my Big Blue 6000 lumen primary

Totally loving this dive light. It's bright (1000 lumen), triple O-ring protected, rugged, and definitive cost-effective. Saw it used in a Goodman handle setup with a reputable European tec diving group and decided to try it for myself. Not overly bright (otherwise, too much back-scatter), and the aircraft-grade aluminum body definitely stand the test of environment. Took four of these down to > 150' a few times, in both sea and fresh waters, weekly multi-dives through sandy banks and rock bottoms lakes for two months, lights still look and function like new. Also, great battery live!

It's a well made decent light, but my 650 lumen Dive Rite flashlight is brighter.

I have two dive lights. The other has an adjustable beam and a push button (very convenient because twisting the lights with three o-rings can be difficult), however, I keep coming back to this light because it is more compact. I use it mostly to look under dark reefs when diving. Especially helpful if the water visibility is low.

Took light on one dive in Hawaii, thoroughly rinsed with fresh water after dive, housing became badly "pitted" corroded. Light also stopped working halfway through the dive. Would not recommend this light to anyone!

the only thing i found annoying is that the charge does not have + / - indicator for the battery. seems like the basic stuff they left out.

Very solid built, so far so good. Very easy to carry. Perfect for shore diving in California.
