Excellent Light
Review byJohn J
An excellent light at an excellent price. Bright enough to be a primary light and I sometimes use it as a primary for cave diving. I also use it as a backup light. I’ve had mine for about 3 years now and it has never let me down, even on cold water dives in excess of 400 feet. The beam quality is great. I appreciate that is doesn’t use special or rechargeable batteries.

Wonderful Light
Review byMichael
This is my go-to light. Nice narrow beam - perfect for spotting life or signalling. I always carry 2 lol. My only wish for this light would be if it could accept Enloop Pro batteries. The Enloop Pro's do very well in cold (40F <) water, and fit fine in the cartridge, but are just a pinch too big for the overall internal diameter.

Bright, compact, easily obtainable batteries!
Review byWendy
Initially I bought this as a backup light for recreational and technical diving, however it is bright enough to suffice as a primary for cave diving. I used it in the caves of Mexico and it was fantastic. I love the fact that it is compact, very bright, and uses commonly found batteries. It seems robust and comes now with both a soft handle and a hard handle. I tell everyone I know about this light.

love this light!
Review byNicole
i purchased this product based on a recommendation by an instructor. at first, i was skeptical of the 1000 lumen claim with the said price. usually the lights being sold in my country are about 1/3 the lumens of this. when i got my order, i was extremely impressed with the brightness. although i don't think it is actually 1000 lumens, i'm happy with the performance of this light. i would buy more if i needed it and would recommend it to more people.

Excellent Backup Light
Review byCarmine
I orginally purchased this light early on, prior to tech training, as my primary light. I thought it worked great, especially for it's size. Then as I progressed I upgraded to a primary light with a much longer battery light and brighter beam. So I needed backup lights, switched the shorty from my primary to secondary and bought a second shorty as my second backup. IMHO they are the perfect backup light. They fit on my shoulder d-rings perfectly with a small snap bolt. They take up little room, but work great when needed.

Really nice lights
Review bySteve
I ordered these a couple weeks ago on a very short timeline before a trip to the Philippines. The DRIS staff rushed my order and got them to me in time! Originally ordered them to reduce my packing load, I've got several very nice lights already, but I liked these because they use AAs and it allowed me to use one type of battery for the new dive lights and all of the other gear (strobes, etc) which made packing easy. Super bright spot light on these and battery run time was north of 2 hours on each dive. I did notice a weird incident where the battery carrier swelled a bit due to heat/humidity and had a tough time getting the batteries in once, but overall extremely happy with them.

Great light when on a budget
Review byPhilippe
I needed a primary light for my night diving class, and wasn't totally sure how much I would enjoy night diving. I opted for the shorty dive light with rigid mount as it powerful enough to be used in the PNW and affordable that I would not regret buying in the event that night diving wasn't what I was hopping for. Well I sure am happy I chose this light. The narrow beam makes it easy to signal my dive buddy as well as pinpointing point of interest during the dive. The light is fairly big and feel really well made. As noted before its a 2 hand operation to turn it on and off but I did not feel it was a nuisance at any time during the dives.
I will keep it as my primary light for awhile and I will have no hesitation recommending it to friends.

Superb Torch
Review byRandy
I purchased this with the hard Goodman Handle and the combination is excellent for recreational night dives. As others has stated, the 1k Shorty requires two hands to activate. It comes with a lanyard which I cinched up my wrist. After twisting it on, I feed my hand into the handle and continue my dive. When finished, I slip it off and twist off the light. The construction is heavy duty and the light it produces is very bright. I carry this with me on every dive. I'm planning on ordering another one for backup. Ordering was effortless and shipped to me relatively fast (for being military stationed overseas).

Best Scuba Light on the Market
Review byclinton
The best scuba light on the market for the price is this. It is so bright yet compact and has a good price. It uses very commonly found batteries. It is very comfortable to use underwater and easy to turn off and on. I do wish it has a button instead because sometimes I have to remember to turn it the right way so I do not accidentally open it underwater.

It was a great gift
Review bystephen
I was given this as a gift from a friend. It is one of the best flashlights I have ever used. It is very powerful yet compact. I use this as a primary dive light. It is solid and has a quality feel to it. It is great value. This light is fatter than the standard ones but I prefer that over a narrow tube. It uses AA which I have plenty of them laying around which is a nice thing. I dislike using those special rechargeable batteries because they never seem to hold a charge or I forget to charge them. I recommend any scuba diving to have one even if you never dive at night!
