Subject: Re: I need a new light....
 Good to see this list up and active again.
A question was asked and a answer was given.

I have droped my EE off the tail gate and onto the limestone.
No Problem.

I have flooded my Clear Canister and No Problem
I did not see that it was flooded but when I exited the 
dive I knew it was due to the weight. Then my dive buddy
told me it was flooded.

Oh yeah this light worked perfectly during the dive.

I was lucky to run into Barry Miller the next day
I told him about it the canister flooding and that 
it might have been my fault.
No Problem  Barry took the light and replaced the cord
No questions. and again No Problem

Does AUL offer this level of service? 
I dont know, I dont care. Barry does it right.
and with the Level of Service that you get with EE,
you wont go looking elsewhere.

TRY IT WITH OMS! hahahahaha  hehehehe
