Underwater Kinetics Light Cannon eLED (L1)

I have only recently purchased this light and have used it twice now. Let's begin with the negative aspects...really there are not any. I see where people say it is heavy. Well, it uses several C cell batteries so it will be a bit heavy but seriously any ten year old can carry this without any difficulties what so ever. I have also read reviews where they claim the handle screwing into the body is not very secure. Again, I disagree. If you can work a screwdriver properly then you should have no difficulties mating the handle to the housing. And lastly, I have read several reviews where people claim not to be able to use the on/off/dimmer switch with gloves on...maybe if you had the hands of the Incredible Hulk you may have some issues but most people should not.On to the positives.When the light arrives it comes with a fresh set of C cell batteries. I tested mine with a meter just to be on the safe side before I dived with it.Batteries insert easily into the housing and the threads/O'ring thread easily to form a secure, watertight fit.The handle comes separate from the housing for ease of shipment. To mate you need a #2 phillips head screwdriver with a 6" shank or better.Comes with an adjustable wrist strap.The light switch easily goes from high beam/off/low beam without difficulty even with heavy gloves on. It even has a lock to keep it turned off during a dive or shipping. Easy to use.Light is very bright even on the dim mode. I was using it in 82' of water with good vis.Rugged housing.If the batteries last as long as UK claims then there is nothing to complain about at all.

It's by far the most amazing and the brightest light torch I ever had, It beats the guides' and instructors' much more expensive lights, it has a strong consistent beam. it's little bulky outside the water, but once you go down it's not an issue. highly recommended primary light source

Bought October 3rd 2016 and Arrived October 11 2016When it first arrived in the mail, I opened it up and assembled it right from the get go. Tested the high beam function, worked fine . Tested the low beam function, did NOT work at all. I fiddled the swinging action toggle switch to turn it in the off position and then the low beam MULTIPLE times and it worked "sometimes". I was a little discouraged that the low beam didnt work ... So i went to troubleshoot the problem.. I twisted off the lens that held the battery in the body frame, and I lightly shook the lens cover and I heard something rattle inside. So I unscrewed the 3 screws that was holding the solid state mother board behind the lens and 4 small pieces of seems to be ceramic pellets fell out. I really don't know what it was, but that was rattling inside the lens cover. So i assembled the light back together and i re-tested the low beam and high beam , both functions work perfectly fine now. I even turned it in low and high beam and shook the light to see if the light would turn off, works perfectly fine. In conclusion i really dont know what that was, but im sure some of those broken pieces was blocking a connection to the low beam ... I also dont know if that is an important piece to the equipment... I have to test it in water now to see if it is water proof.Pros: -the light it produces is really really bright-comes with an adjustable strap that fits ALL wrist sizes-comes with the batteries already inside the light-small light so very mobileCons: -low beam did not work right out of the box and I don't know if those pieces are important to the equipmentI would reccomend this product to anyone who is looking for a dive light or scuba light etc. Just be sure to check every little thing this light has to offer and don't hesitate to return the item if you are not satisfied. These are my opinions to the product. :)

Ive went scooping for bait 3 times now with maybe 12 hours of use and I can't say enough how happy I am with this light. Still the same strength the entire time. I don't even turn my headlamp on. I don't dive im using it right at the surface in shallow water, so I can't say anything about the depth. But I would buy this again in a heartbeat, no questions asked!

I am very impressed !!! I have been using LED lights for night diving for quite long time and this is one of the best lights I have ever used. The brightness is awesome for a light this size.the light switch is very convenient and has only three settings: Off, High & low, which as a snorkeler and a diver I am very comfortable with.P.S. : I am using NiMH C batteries made by Tenergy.

It is the brightest dive light I have ever used. This is the one to get. I have been using "UK Dive Lights" since they have produced them (20+ years). I have almost every light they have produced. This one is by far the best.

just received this light. went in the water and tried to turn the light on and the handle immediately broke. ordered a replacement and hoping the same thing doesn't happen. will update review after trying again.

Most of the folks writing reviews here sound like very experienced scuba divers so I would defer to their recommendations for scuba. I purchased this for light-duty night diving with snorkel in reef depth water of about 12'. For that this product is teriffic.My only regret is that I did not do more research before purchasing this product inasmuch as it is overkill for what I use it for, and I could probably have gotten by with a cheaper LED solution. That is not the folks at Underwater Kinetics fault, I should have done more research and found a more cost effective solution for my less than mission critical usage.I'm giving this 3 stars for those out there like me who may be looking for a decent reliable light to use for reef diving at night. Don't spend the money on this unless you are sure you have ruled out other products that may cost less and deliver what you need.

Perfect for the job and well made. Best on the market for in and out of water

Recieved item and the batteries leaked all over inside the light so it needed to be returned. Very disappointed!

excellent seller and diving light thank you *****

These are top quality dive torches and I wouldn't use any other lights.
