Excellent light

Sola focus lights are absolutely necessary for doing photography in the low vis water of the Eastern Pacific. We've been using Sola lights for 5 years, starting with the Sola 600 that we bought used from a friend when he upgraded to the 1200. My husband and I each use a Sola 1200, keeping the 600 as a backup. The 1200 lights are durable, reliable, and are still working after 450 - 500 dives, I'd estimate. The red function is invaluable for getting close to photograph skittish fish, crabs, and micro-crustaceans. The only time we had a repair issue was when our Sola 600 conked out after a zillion dives by 2 owners. Light & Motion repaired it promptly for no charge. Great service.

Do it all light

I love this light. I debated based on price but the small size easy charging (no batteries) and the great varied light ability......love it! I can stealth prep for photo on night dives with the red light or use for my primary and video. It is awesome!

Say hello to the Light & Motion Sola 1200 Photo Light - a compact yet powerful photo light that's bound to enhance your underwater photography experience. Weighing just 8.75 oz. (244 g), this light offers versatility with a strong flood beam and a red light, each with three power levels.

The Sola 1200 delivers 1200 lumens in the flood mode and 300 lumens in the red light mode, both certified to the FL-1 Standard. Its red light emits a pure wavelength in a smooth 60-degree beam angle, acting as an excellent focus light for wildlife photography or to improve night vision. Many underwater creatures can't see the red light, making it easier for you to approach, focus, and capture stunning photos without startling them.

This mighty light employs the top-notch CREE LEDs with a color temperature of 6000 - 6500 Kelvin, supported by optimized firmware. A unique colored Status LED keeps you informed about battery life and mode status for hassle-free power management.

The Sola 1200's flood beam angle is 60 degrees, providing 1200 lumens in high-mode, 600 lumens in medium mode, and 300 lumens in low mode. The red beam delivers 300 lumens in high-mode, 150 lumens in medium, and 75 lumens in low mode. With burn times of 70 minutes in high mode, 140 minutes in medium mode, and an impressive 280 minutes in low mode, the Sola 1200 also features an SOS mode for emergencies.

Recharging is a breeze with the included 2-amp universal charger compatible with 110/240-volt power supplies. A 2.5-hour charge time ensures your light is ready for action. Crafted to endure, the Sola 1200 sports a glass-filled nylon body, a resilient aluminum light head ring, and a tempered glass lens. Measuring 4" x 2.1" x 2.1" (10.16cm x 5.33cm x 5.33cm), it's depth-rated to 330' (100m) and comes with a handy owner's manual.
