Nick,
Any way to tell if a Hollis LED 25 is the older or newer style?

I had the chance to use my new Hollis 25w - this thing is impressive. There are a few changes. Power cord is not as think (not that it matters), but the head seems solid. Battery runs forever and it is BRIGHT!!!!
I have to send my 15w back in to them - but i did a quick comparison with the beams and the 25W is significantly brighter at the hot spot.
Well worth it. This is a nice light.
I used it last week in a dive with ZERO ambient light and sediment everywhere (2-4 feet of vis) and the H25 really blasted through.

I bought a Hollis LED 25 last month and put a few day and nigh ocean dives on it. I have to say I'm happy with the light. There is a decent size hot spot and area lighting around it that makes it great for night diving. I feel that this light compares well with the other LED's on the market. +1 for the battery life too. I purposely didn't charge the battery after a couple of 1 hour dives and it worked as good as it did on a full charge. I may post a pic or two that shows how it did next to some other top LED's and a few lower powered HID's
Bottom line, IMHO if you're a cave diver, wreck or frequent night diver and you want the surrounding illumination this is not a bad light.

Here are a few shots of the LED 25. In the middle pic you can see another light at about the 5 o'clock area. I won't name the 18w light lol

Hey Spg1, we have been talking lights every time we dive man. You've seen my other light and the LED25 I just got in person. I don't know how it looks on the other end of the beam LOL Like I said, So far I'm happy with it on night dives. The beam and the cone pattern area lighting IMHO. I have some good B/U lights so I'll dive the LED 25 a few more time w/o charging it. If it's truly up to 8 hrs per charge then wow... no worries from me
