i like the Underwater Kinectics (UK) Sunlight SL6; it's cheap ($30.00) and puts out
good light.

also, for $20.00 it's hard to beat the Ikelite PCaLite. it has a halogen light, and it's
BRIGHT:

i've owned both of these lights, and they're good on batteries.

Princeton Tec 400 is a pretty good and inexpensive 4C light.
Lights that use AAs can be small and very bright but C cell lights will have much longer burn times.
Blue Hole Belize, I assume?

If you can spend $5 more, and need a primary night diving light, I'd get the C8 Sunlight. It's a good bright light with plenty of burn time, and it has the added bonus of having two bulbs that can be switched underwater in case one burns out.

If this is only a light you're going to use rarely... I'd get the SL6 like Andy said. Little smaller, fits in a lot of bc pockets... so you'll be able to take it on a lot of dives that you wouldn't take the CL8 on.
