Apparently somebody left their high quality, high powered dive light at Devil's Eye last Saturday. This could be how they carry spare duct tape for during dive emergencies. I left it with the security guard if you wish to retrieve it. Must be using Energizers, because it is still going. How classic is this!

Thats a poor open water divers light if I ever saw one.My guess is it was close to the entrance.
Does the spare duct tape also double up as bezel/lens protector? :-D
Dive safe,
Celia
is it negatively bouyant or positive??
Dang- I always leave my gear laying around. I have been worrying where my primary light got off to. I'll pick it up at Ginnie before I start my next cave course.
What a relief.....

Is that the DIR model???Quote:

That is just so wrong on so many levels. The owner may still be in the cave....
:oops:
On the bright side (No pun intended) The bulb in this light will probably last longer and be less expensive to replace than the HID light I currently use.
Suffice it to say that if I knew what I know now I would have stuck with a Halogen but I've already spent the money. $139.00 to replace a freakin light bulb. That's more than the GDP of some countries!!
I thought Chinese labor was cheaper than that.
I agree with Greg. Check the cave. They might still be in there.
Absolutely- with the unnecessary high dollar stainless steel replaced with duct tape.Quote:

You should see my Student Control Device (SCD):

During my training I was required to wear the Jockstrap version of that one SCD. It only took 2 or 3 jolts before I got it through my fiendish little brain that swimming the line or assuming a Head up Fins down position wasn't going to be tolerated. It was Hell on my Sack er I mean my SAC rate though. :smt018
On another note I want to apologize for my previous post concerning the HID bulb. :roll: It was 2 for 1 Guinness night at the Pub and after a few pints I'm prone to obsessing about the past. I wont bring it up again..........Maybe?
No problem. What else would we expect from someone called caver anger? :D
Oh, give the kid a break! My first divelight didn't look much better :oops:
Thats because it was 150 years ago, before masks were even invented!Quote:
