Recently at the dive shop, I got to hearing about how some people build their own light to use on a dive. One of the guys said that another diver built his own light that was stronger than a D8 flashlight and that when the guy turned on the light, it was like an underwater sun had "risen out of the water" so to speak. The only problem was that the battery pack was quite heavy (which the diver used it as part of his weights). This light he referred to was called halogen, I think... not sure if I got the right name for it. I do know some people buy it and it is quite expensive, while others have the knowhow on how to built it. I was wondering if there is anyone out there that can explain how it is built and how you build it to withstand the pressure when you take it down with you diving, as well as the supplies that you need to build it?
