Dive Rite HP50 - Expedition Canister Light

Dive Rite's all new HP50 raises the bar for technical lighting systems. Completely adaptable to any dive mission, the HP50 easily transforms from a compact, lightweight travel companion to a rugged workhorse capable of boundary pushing, multi-hour technical dives. At its heart, a next generation multi-die Cree XLamp XHP50.2 LED provides unparalleled output, efficiency, and reliability. A unique light head design offers improved heat sinking and features a cross drilled water channel that provides a direct thermal path from the back side of the LED chip to the water for maximum output and efficiency. A magnetic rotary switch controls 4 modes of operation: High, medium, low, and strobe.

An integrated microprocessor control unit continuously monitors battery voltage and temperature to keep the light operating at peak efficiency. As battery voltage drops, light output steps down eliminating the possibility of suddenly being left in the dark due to a dead battery. The light alerts the diver of this step down in light output by a series of flashes, after which, the light produces a minimum of another 4+ hours of usable light. In a sea of cheaply made imports, the HP50 stands out and is proudly designed, manufactured, and assembled in the USA.

One light, infinite possibility. The HP50 gives the diver the flexibility to easily convert between handheld and canister versions using the same light head. Using the simple threaded, double O-ring sealed connection, quickly convert between the 4 x 18650 handheld battery pack and the corded canister adapter. The light and corded adapter are completely compatible with either the 100 watt-hour Slimline Canister battery or the 150 watt-hour Expedition Canister battery. The 100-watt-hour canister consists of two individual 50 watt-hour packs and the 150-watt-hour canister consists of three individual 50-watt-hour packs. The individual battery packs are internal and are not connected- together until the canister lid is installed in the activated position. When the lid is installed in the travel position (rotated 180-degrees) the packs remain disconnected from each other to prevent accidental activation. All battery options are UN 38.3 test compliant and are safe for air transport. Corded adapters are available in either standard straight lid or optional 70-degree lid versions for improved cord routing when butt or back mounting the canister. Additional battery packs, corded adapters, and chargers are available separately.

Cree XLamp XHP50.2 LED driven at 24W produces over 3500 lumens at a color temperature of 6500-degrees Kelvin. Light beam angle is 10-degree spot, has a magnetic rotary switch to activate, blinks 3 times to indicate low battery and automatically steps output down to increase usable burn time. Durable CNC machined Delrin and hard-coat anodized aluminum body construction. Light is depth rated to 500' (152m). The Dive Rite HP50 Expedition Canister Light, uses 100-watt-hour sealed lithium-ion batteries, has a 5-hour burn time in high-mode, 10-hours in medium-mode, 100-hours in low-mode and 50-hours in strobe-mode. The HP50 Expedition Canister Light has a light head measuring (L x Dia.) 3.5 x 2" (8.9 x 5cm) with a canister size of (L x Dia.) 11 x 2.6" (27.94 x 6.6cm) and weighs 4.1 lbs (1.87kg) ready to dive. Light is negatively buoyant 1.25 lbs (560g) underwater. Included with the Dive Rite HP50 Expedition Canister Light are 150-watt-hour lithium-ionbattery canister, standard corded canister adapter (70-degree adapter optional), canister quick belt mount, soft hand mount with locking QRMmounting system, lithium-ion smart charger and owner's manual.
