   Dan , a good light is a good light - don't listen to the
nickelrockets. Get 50 watt, 3400 kelvin, 1300 or higher
lumens. The 100w comes the same way with nore lumens,
but the shape and orientation of the bulb make it difficult
to focus with the same reflrector that works for the 50, the
#3. These things will last 50 hours, but toss them at 20.
They will usually blow when you first turn on your light, so
check it on the surface before jumping in. Otherwise, go to
Arnold, get a removeable spare head with underwater
connectors, keep it in you pocket, and replace it if it
goes. This is better thasn overdriving, because at least
you will know when to expect the failure. Thes things
will cost you a whopping $4.50. - George
