Great light for wearing on your hand. However it loses its ability to hold a long charge quickly.
Pros
- Ease of use
- Wears on your hand for easier function
- Durable
Cons
- Loses charge quickly
- Charging contacts corrode
The light is easy to use and the ability to wear it on your hand allows for greater ability to do other things underwater. The light has three setting for brightness for the flood beam and the pinpoint beam. It is also durable. Someone's tank fell over on mine and bent the bezel. Light still functions properly.
Unfortunately the light will go into sleep mode and it will not take a charge when this happens. It must be woke up which tends to be hard to do. You also have to search the internet to find out how to wake it up without sending it back to Light and Motion.
It also tends to lose its hardiness to charge after a while. Mine will not run for more then 30 minutes without another charge. Suffice to say I can only get one dive in before it needs another charge.
Operability is easy as it has a slide mech that is easy to use even with heavy gloves.
