Sorry I missed most of the conversation on this, but, I was diving Madison
last weekend; heard about the new HID light from dive-rite; so I wrote them
and asked about it. Look at there web page and consider it. The info I got
back sugests they are still in the experimental stage; not sure if or when it
is available.
I too am in the market for another primary. Presently I have two scouts
and an old dive rite ( the square one ). Once the primary gave me trouble,
and that was when I took lessons on how to cave dive.
Consider this; carrying a single 12 volt battery and a ballest ( I hope
this weighs about the same as a two 12 volt battery canister), having the
light of the sun with you and it lasting longer than the currently available
primarys of the same size.
I am not saying this is the light for you as I don't know what you need: a
light NOW, or take a chance on a light that is new in design (this of course
means there may be improvements after the first year, although, I'm know dive-
rite stands behind there gear). I KNOW I'm going to wait and see when the
light becomes available as to the price and specs. of this new light, and then
I'll buy a new primary; Which will be either an AUL, Explorer Pro 14, or the
new HID from dive-rite.
The furture looks bright, from dive-rite,
NO, I'm not a salesman for Lamar, but it a good sale pitch, eh?
