Other than the D&D not showing the box (boxes are nice but for me they usually end up as overburden) what did I miss?

Nothing; the lack of hard case is the only difference. This is the first time I've seen Orcatorch promoting their lights from somewhere other than Amazon.

Incidentally, the one for sale on Amazon from Outdoor Equipment Experts does have the case.

The D&D website shows 2 x 18650 batteries, and a battery charger.

The version shown in the post above depicts 1 x 18650 battery and a USB cord to charge with like the battery that comes with the OrcaTorch D530 dive torch.

The one I bought came with two batteries, as did both D710’s, D530v may have come with two since there is one still in the packaging and one in the light but I have lots of 18650’s around so…

For the past few years the D550 came with 2x18650 batteries, charger, soft goodman handle, wrist lanyard, 3xspare o-rings, a very small bolt snap, and plastic case.

The D530 came with 1x18650 battery that has a micro USB port, short micro USB cable, 3xspare o-rings, packaged in a cardboard box.

The D550 pictured in the original post of this thread seems to be a change to what they are offering as it only shows 1x18650 battery and a USB cable...no charger.

Not a deal breaker, but the 2nd 18650 battery was a nice extra, especially with how long the 18650 battery that came with my D530 takes to charge with the USB cable....I often just stick it on a spare 18650 charger.

Just sayin.

You're correct; cancel what I said above. That does appear to be the same battery set-up that comes with the D530.
