I ended up purchasing one and used it on my dive today at the channel islands. My buddy used a Green Force 10w HID. In sunlight, the HID wins. As far as distance "punch" and focus, the HID wins. But the Hollis held its own and was suitable for signaling in daylight up to about 10 ft.

But in shadows, in the dark of a kelp forest canopy or in the nooks and crannies, the Hollis was a clear contender. The slightly wider focus, is, in my opinion, and advantage and the color is more white than the bluish 10w HID.

I'm happy with the purchase and it will serve as a wonderful backup, travel, or loaner light.
