Dorcy Dive II 220 Lumen

[Hatul]

Mine are still going strong, apart from the aforementioned issue with being hard(er) to turn on/off below ~40m. For $40 I reckon they're a steal for a tech backup (burn time allowing) or primary day/night dive light

That's probably true for any twist on-off light as the pressure is pushing the O ring against its seat.

I have 3 Dorys now for a while without any failures with recreational depth dives.

Does the 220 fit in the OxyCheq Raider III Light Sock?

If it does fit, does anyone have a picture of it?

It fits fine. I use this setup currently. No pictures tho.

How are these lights for a primary light for night dives in clear warm water?

They are fine. Any light that works in cold water with limited viz works in clear water. The only issue is the narrower beam angle that is needed in limited viz but not in clearer water.

So, they work but if you have a light with a wider beam it will work in clear water and you will see more.

It's sort of a no brainer though to have one of these types of lights because they make great backup lights in any water conditions.

I've got to agree with the above.


for night-time, I like my wider beam lights better as they light up more.

where I REALLY like this light is for daytime dives, looking in nooks and crannies with it's focused beam. It's great for looking under the endges of sunken bridge spans for instance, which are narrow corridors.
