Dear all,

I bought an IST dive light/strobe exactly like this off of a friend (he got it as a gift):



I intend to use it as a marker light for night diving at a local lake. However, the strobe crapped out when I was playing with it at home. I think it is the bulb. Does anyone know where to buy a new strobe bulb?

TIA,

Jeff
 
OK, this weekend I fiddled with it some more. I pushed the battery housing some and it made a better connection with the strobe and fired immediately. I feel like an idiot. I wadded up some paper and put it in so that the LED light module will push against the strobe and it worked like a charm. Problem solved!
