Flashlight/Camera Locking Retractor by XS Scuba
XS Scuba Flashlight/Camera Locking Retractor: Secure Your Gear, Control Your Reach
Dropping a brand new light or camera into the abyss is a diver's worst nightmare. Even dragging your expensive electronics across the reef can cause irreparable damage. The XS Scuba Locking Retractor solves these problems by keeping your gear attached to your BCD at all times while giving you the freedom to use it comfortably.
The Locking Advantage
Most retractors constantly pull back against you, which creates hand fatigue when you try to hold a camera steady or aim a light for a long period. This unit features a specialized locking mechanism that sets it apart. You can lock the cable in the open position to relieve tension while you film, lock it closed to keep gear tight to your body, or secure it anywhere in the middle. This gives you complete control over your equipment without the constant tug-of-war.
Built for Heavy Use
Reliability matters when your gear is on the line. XS Scuba builds this retractor with a Spectra/Nylon line that offers a breaking strength of 80 lbs (approx. 36 kg). It provides a generous 42 inches (approx. 107 cm) of extension, allowing you to reach arm's length easily. With a pull force of 12 oz (approx. 340 g), it handles most medium-sized dive lights and cameras with ease.
Versatile Attachment Options
Connecting this system to your kit is simple. The retractor body clips to your BCD D-ring using a sturdy Delrin snap hook. On the gear side, you have choices. Use the stainless steel split ring for a permanent connection or the nylon lanyard for items that need a softer attachment point.
Stop worrying about dropping your gear and focus on the dive. Add the XS Scuba Locking Retractor to your setup today!
