What about just cold? Say, someone who's in fresh water for 95% of their
diving?

Anyone on this list (including those "weenie dive" guys who just 'fessed up)
have problems with EO connectors in caves?

Main reason for asking, is that I may opt to buy an entire new light instead
of an upgrade. If the problems with EO connectors are restricted to salt
water, than perhaps the upgrade is a decent option.
