    If you buy bulk you cant beat Fogstar's price. The minimum order is £75 (~€89). Every week they offer 15% codes posted on Facebook. Which comes out to €2 ($2.11) per 3000mAh battery. They also sell lots of different chargers at good prices...

    I just looked up the DL570 and it has laser pointer!?! Never seen that in a dive light before, thats awesome lol. Would love to see a side by side comparison if you can borrow a light in the future. I was looking at the Orca 910V. 5000 lumens, battery is 3-18650 (38 watt-hours), run time on...

    Just a guess, don’t know what emitter it uses but it looks like a copy of the XM-L2 which is 116-175 lumens per watt, the brighter it runs the less efficient it is. So that’s somewhat between 3800-5800 lumens. I think the 6 LED version might use a lot more power. Didn’t you say your light runs...

    I use the xtar vc8 it’s $28 at illumn. It has extra features that are nice like being able to change charging current and storage charging (you don’t want to store 18650 completely full or empty for long periods). A downside is you need a usb wall adapter to USB that can supply 9V 2A. You can...

    They arent as bright as they claim, but still very bright. If you're in the US heres a couple of batteries I would recommend. Keep in mind theres a global battery shortage, prices are high at the moment. https://www.illumn.com/18650-lg-mj1-inr18650-mj1-high-discharge-protected-button-top.html...

    Heres a test I did of the 10 LED version. Average battery voltage after 120 minutes was 3.17V. I was surprised the light didn't dim as the batteries drained. Battery used was LG MJ1 3500mAh and based on drain time the light uses about 30 watts. Depending on LED efficiency, 4000 lumens give or take.

    Nanaimo vs West Vancouver diving

    Very similar to what were planning. We want to do 1 day of shore diving and 2 days of boat diving. I called earlier and it came out to the same price. I'll be sure to check out bocca cafe!

    Nanaimo vs West Vancouver diving

    Welp...after looking into prices I might just head over to Nanaimo. Sea dragon is $130 for a 2 dive charter. Two tank rental is $50/day for steel (plus they said air fill not included, $15 per tank). No discount renting for multiple days. Weights are $10 a day. So all together $220 without...

    Actually found another option from that website. This ones says 16mm hole. All of them are rated to IP68 and not IP69k so it still might not work. I'm not sure tbh https://www.oznium.com/switches/waterproof-led-switch

    I found these... https://www.oznium.com/switches/waterproof-anti-vandal-led-switch and https://www.oznium.com/switches/ip68-waterproof-switch The latching one the button stays depressed when circuit is complete. Says it needs a 19mm hole though, probably too big.

    I was wondering how to get remove the front glass too. How did you manage to do it? Is it only finger tight? I dont want to take it apart yet so I dont want to try it. Sucks to hear the board is fried. Try contacting Letonpower and negotiate a bit, they might send you a new board. I found their...

    Found this on Alibaba. This version has two tripod screws, a nice feature I wish you could find on Aliexpress.

    Interesting...I dont think I would like unscrewing it to charge though. I bought the same Letonpower light, 10 LED version. Haven't got batteries to test mine yet. For the price I impressed with the build quality and good customer support. Hilarious packaging though "DIVING DEEP LOVE" and...

    Damn... How do the charter boats run in BC? is there a divemaster in the water or is it self guided?

    Too bad shipping costs $202 to Canada lol It's not bad deal just saying they probably aren't Panasonic cells (Like the name NCR18650B implies). Still a good battery and I would buy them if shipping wasn't insane. An alternative is buying them online in the US, expect to pay $6-8 for a name...

    Nanaimo vs West Vancouver diving

    Actually the wedding is in Tofino. Flying in and out of Vancouver because flights are 6x more to Nanaimo. My family is going to fly out the same day my buddy arrives for our small diving trip. So I’ll be making two round trips on the ferry if I dive Nanaimo. So from my understanding both have...

    Thanks! Sea dragon is who I was looking at if I chose horseshoe bay! Glad to hear more positive reviews. I will look into that, maybe stay at the motel. Why pick one when you can do both!

    Nanaimo vs West Vancouver diving

    Hey all, I'm heading to BC for a wedding in May. Going to bring my gear for a weekend of diving afterward. My dive buddy is flying in and we will be sharing accommodations. I'm trying to decide what part of BC I should dive with only a few days. We were thinking Friday shore diving, Saturday and...
