    Pierre, the acrylic light case breaks when dropped with the battery in it- 
do not leave the battery in it, especially when transporting, and always carry
a 
spare. There are two huge risks in cave diving : driving to the site, and 
breaking your gear before you get to dive . Lexan would be ideal, and Alex 
Varouxis has one, but he machined it from a solid block- it does not come in 
tube of the right thickness (it flexes). Aluminum would be great if it did not 
conduct electricity . PVC is cool, but the sizes are either a little too big
(5" 
id), or too small (4" id). 

    Been there, done that , Pete , take the battery out. - G
