Sorry Joe, I won't be able to send any good photos. My sidemount gear is in Mexico and I'm back in Canada. But the C clip is attached to the front of the light head with the switch pointing up and the striker on the bottom. You can (hopefully) see it in the attached.

The EX35 clips in and out of the razor mount without any issues. Hope this helps. If there’s something more specific you’re looking for, let me know.

I have yet to experience it myself but I hear from others that Dive Rite’s customer service is outstanding. Glad things have worked out for you.

@Manatee Diver did you notice any colour difference? EX35 greener than the HP50?

@Doby45 How did you find the spot angle difference? Was HP50's 10-degree much different than EX35's 6-degree spot, as @jlcnuke says it is?

Yes, I've contacted them and they're happy to inspect the light and make things right if the light turns out to be defective. Since you're using 5600K video lights (similar colour temp to the EX35), I wonder if difference in hue would be noticeable between the two. I only noticed a marked...

I’ve recently purchased Dive Rite’s EX35, flew down to Tulum and found the light much too green. (Reminded me of my local Lake Ontario on a summer day.) The people I dove with used Light Monkey. The EX35 outputs at 5700 Kelvin, whereas LM at 6500, so closer towards the ultraviolet and therefore...

Thanks all for the feedback.

If anyone has used sms 75 as a single backmount, can you share your opinion? I have one lying around and am looking for an on-budget single backmount system. Someone suggested I add an STA to the sms75 and done. Is it that simple? Is it any good in this config? Other than an STA, what would...

Thanks both for your input. A very good and useful point.

I'm in the process of getting a SANTI E.motion Plus (first dry suit) and have just come across a video of Steve Martin and Vas Proud talking about dry suits. Specifically, Vas argues that integrated boots may not be as good as socks with regular dry suit boots because: 1. they introduce extra...

Hi all. First, apologies for the late reply. I hopped on a plane to MX shortly after posting and this is my first day online since. Second, thanks so much for this overwhelming and useful feedback. Really appreciate it. I think I'll stick to renting for the time being. My lds always has...

I've recently been thinking of getting a pair of own sidemount cylinders but am not sure whether it makes sense. My local shop charges $20 to rent one, so each outing ends up costing me $40. They're Nitrox filled and I don't have to worry about maintenance and storage. Aluminum tanks with...
