I think I may just order one - but I'd be interested in knowing if it's a good light...

This is a pretty good light with just one disadvantage. You need a lot of force and a special tool to remove the head. So this is not a light for holiday divers who fly. You have to remove the bulb for flights. That is not so easy with this light. Anyway, it is a good light for a very good price. But to be honest, the 24W Version is the better one if you want to have a powerfull light. 21W is already bright (about as bright as a 50W halogen light), but the 24W can even compete with a 75W halogen light.

why do you have to remove the bulb when flying?

Hi,

because nearly all airlines demand you to do so. (Lufthansa, Quantas, Hapag Lloyd, Emirates, Ryan Air, ........) . I do not know anything about Philippine airlines, but there are many others that will not allow you to enter the plane with a working light.

I hate to be the one to say this but batteryspace raised their price on this light to $399 today. Guess they were selling a bunch of them or it was a pricing mistake that came to someone's attention.

Hi,

the manufacturer Brightstar demands to sell the light for that price.

A familiar theme in dive gear sales, unfortunately.

Mine just arrived in the mail yesterday from Battery Space. I got it for $299, before they raised the price. I haven't had a chance to take it underwater yet, but even on land it was awesome. Last night I turned off all of the lights in my house and it lit the place up like it was daytime. The regular light generates a nice tight beam and the accessory flood filter produces a very even, dispersed light. Can't wait to take in on some wrecks / night dives. Assuming it doesn't flood, I think I'll be very happy with it.
