Ken,
I have about 24 dives on the light now and the students who were in the 
course are DR dealers and they have about 16 dives on the lights now.

To date no problems, and I'm quite happy with them . I have had them to 
270 and they performed perfect. They do require attention when 
assembling them as you could think you hyad them closed when in fact 
they may not be. That is easy to avoid by observing if there is still a 
gap after closing the lid. If a gap exist the light is not closed 
although it may feel as if it is.

The class you saw me with was tired that day, on Friday we did a 173 
minute bottom time on one dive in the peacock springs system(stage dive 
of course)

Tom
