I've been reading the posts on the list for a wile but this is the first time I'm posting (hope I get some polite replies ;-)) I'm planing to buy a new light and have a few questions. Hope someone can help me. 1st. Does anyone has any experience with the new wreck light from Dive Rite (with the HID head)? I would be using it for intro to cave dives. Is it really as bright as a 50w halogen bulb? Is it 2 hours enough burn time? 2nd How about the Extreme Exposure lights (I'm considering the explorer pro 14 with halogen bulb, witch would be considerably more expensive then the Dive Rite). Any good or bad experiences? Thank's in advance for your attention. Ps. For those who doesn't have any valuable information, please refrain to post. I'm a newby and I�m just looking for some advice. ------=_NextPart_000_0014_01C0B876.23DB4C00 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META content=3D"text/html; charset=3Diso-8859-1" = http-equiv=3DContent-Type> <META content=3D"MSHTML 5.00.3019.2500" name=3DGENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=3D#ffffff> <DIV><FONT color=3D#0000ff face=3DTahoma><SPAN = class=3D010522922-29032001>I don't=20 believe the 10 Watt HID head is as bright as a 50Watt Halogen, although = I would=20 say it is close.
