So I've had my Halcyon for about 2 months and most of that time its been at halcyon getting fixed. Issues:
1) Light shipped but bulb broken in shipping, returned to Halcyon and fixed
2) Light flooded on maiden dive, returned to Halcyon and fixed with a modification to the design.
3) Bulb breaks on dive (or on boat), returned Halcyon and fixed.
Other than my frustration that Halcyon sees my light more than I do, and my joy that Halcyon treats me good and keeps repairing my light for free..... Anyone else having issues with the Proteus head and the bulb getting broken easily?
For example I tend to keep the light in a very tight "mag-lite" type beam. Could transporting the head in this position cause the reflector to rest on the bulb and the slightest bump snap it? Keep in mind that I baby this light cause I love it and hate seeing it shipped to Halcyon.
Just wondering if anybody else has the same experience.
