SOLA 1200 & GoBe500 vs Others

[MikeAg03]

I'm looking to pick up a primary/backup light. I ran across this deal:
Light & Motion SOLA Dive 1200 S/F and GoBe S 500 Spot LED Light Combo Kit

Which seems like it's the older version of the SOLA1200. Looking at spec's vs the newer one (black/blue vs teal) it doesn't appear to be different other than cosmetically.

I was also consider just getting the black/blue SOLA1200
Light & Motion SOLA Dive 1200 S/F FC LED Light (Black)

And getting either the Hog or DGX lights for a backup. (I kind of like these better since the battery is replaceable).

Thoughts and opinions? I'm open to any set of lights and not just the ones above.

I have the SOLA 1200 S/F its a great light and paired with my Kraken 650 as a back up its a good combination. The price for the combo isnt bad at all ..

The newer version of the Sola 1200 has a faster charge rate. I love mine!

Stay away from the Gobe, ive had to warranty about 3. All 3 had leaked through their not so good o-ring system.
