 Garrett, I see it is time to cut to the chase with you . Correct me if I am
wrong: you are an open water instructor from Seattle who has been "empowered"
with some kind of "technical" diving badge or badges, and now feel the need to
dispense advice on the subject of cave diving and cave lights about which you
don''t have the first clue.

 Let me put this subject into perspective for you. The bulb for an HID lights
costs more than it would cost you to get any one of your foul, rotten, nasty
black teeth replaced.

  I would be glad to save you a little dough and remove all of them at once.
No , I am not a dentist, just a helpful guy.
