Where can I find one of those strong canister lights that can be seen by the 
boat during the daytime? or for that matter, unlike those stupid mirrors that 
only reflect sunlight? Gee, I gotta get me one of those canister lights for 
my daytime ocean diving. It can take the place of my UK light. I don't have 
to worry about them being Y2K compliant do I? Just DIR compliant right? And I 
can toss out my safety sausage too? And all this time I thought a whistle, 
small signal mirror and bright orange bag was all I needed if I couldn't see 
the boat on the surface. I guess I still have a lot to learn about DIR ocean 
diving.
