Geez and with that commercial message from the wkpp for another wkpp's
members product I hope we can end the advertising day. Couldn't you guys
just say "I'm a wkpp member we support the business's of our members and the
guys that dive these products really like them" although a small message at
the bottom saying "not all members of our group use this product however we
are in agreement Thats it's a fine product". I don't disagree with the fact,
and I do think it's a fact that Barry makes a good light, I just find all
the self serving "buy only off my buddy" rather wearisome. I don't ever beat
my light with a sledge hammer but do like being able to look in a housing
and see if it's flooding. I wish my camera had a clear housing for the same
reason. I also don't beat that housing with a hammer nor do i use a sledge
on my other gear. I have however kicked my dog once or twice, he's also
fallen off the tailgate i can say a mongrel is a very durable dog and
wouldn't suggest a housing for him.
