matey ...assuming you don't want to spend bulk cash - as there are many proper boat lights that install on or in the hull... - what about a couple of swimming pool lights?

matey - you mean something like this? www.diveoz.com.au - The Wizbang DIY Strobe Arm - Page 1 i have made one or two of these and they work well... (although these days you can get bought ones fairly cheap off yer e-bay) cheers,

matey - you could use the dial controls to push some buttons - just mount them at right angles and attach levers inside and out.... Seatec housings from australia used to do this. advantages are that the controls are not going to be triggered by excess depth... disadvantage is that you can't...

Matey - the polymorph stuff goes brittle after a while.... i built a focus light mount out of a strip of aluminium that wraps around the light. the light is secured by cable ties - the other end is bolted on by the strobe mount i have also done it as per the attached photo - basically cable...

matey - dead easy to bend - clamped in a vice - smacked lovingly with a hammer...

Ows about this lot then?

Folks - i have noticed that a company called 'dyron' makes wet lens mounts for a 67mm thread that purports to support a wpdc16/ a720is housing.... i can appreciate this would be great to attach a macro lens, but it is hard to tell from their site whether a wide angle lens will actually...

miketsp - i considered making a sealed battery canister in this way....am still thinking about it....and the fact you built yours "some years ago" tells me this is not a bad idea! (i was going to put some nimh in some pvc pipe and completely fill the air gaps with silicone) one thing that...

Sirto - in a nutshell - no i have not experienced this on either of my conversions. just lucky i guess ;-0

Wasp - i am sure this has been done but i am not sure of the result... a better way would be to make the shape out of existing PVC plumbing bits and fill the air spaces with epoxy....something like this: Dive light - Budgie's Torch

Van isle - it is of course your life to toy with - In terms of building ones' own safety gear it is definitely a case of "you don't know what you don't know". Presumably a bought reg or BC has undergone rigourous design and testing using tens or hundreds of units that expose where the...

As a matter of fact someone has!!! Seacam Australia i used to have one of these - rated to 70m - heavy but good i have another that was used for an slr - but is too heavy nowadays

In my opinion - the XPG drop-in provides more light for the same current.

Folks - sea-tested the XPG on saturday..... in practice it stomps on the XRE.... when shoving light under a rock, the spots are the same brightness - one is much larger than the other.

Hard to say matey.... to the eye in real life - the lights all look about the same brightness, just varying sizes of hot spots.... but your eyes will adjust to what makes sense to them... my opinion from looking at the beamshots its that the R2 and xpg are the same brightness, but the xpg has...

Beam Shots? You want beam shots? say hello to my little friends... before i show you - a description of how this was done. all pictures taken with f8, 1/3.3 second Iso 800. (for the camera non-geeks this means the exposure was the same for all shots) taken at a distance of 7 Metres. all...

yeah - have to second the warning re: using different battery chemistries - they all have different discharge characteristics, and if you stuff up bad enough, you could end up reverse charging a weaker battery - at best it will leak, at worst - "boom!"... (why not replace the real 'c' cells...
