Goodman Handle

[Greenwood_60]

I like the Gooman handle if I'm wearing gloves or mitts. If I'm diving bare handed I prefer the elastic light holder.

Take one of those $0.99 neoprene koozies and cut a pad for the back of your hand. Glue it to the inside-top of the goodman handle.

So bend the aluminum into an arc

The Goodman handle was a vast improvement over holding a light, like it was a flashlight. It is really hard to use your hand for anything else, if there is a flashlight in it.

Thats a great idea, but I already bought the Oxycheck glove thingy. I found it was hard to use my hand for ANYTHING a week after my first week of diving with the Goodman handle. I did have to put a piece of innertube around the light head so that it didnt slip around, but it works great and feels good.

So Jersey! PM me an address.... you'll have a slightly used Goodman Handle.

Put a suicide clip on it and loop your pinkie in it when you need to do other things with your hand.

My dive buddy, a machinist-whiz with metal, did and called it a "Comfy-Grip" - it rocks! If I wasn't so computer-inept, I'd send a pic.

Did you lose it last weekend. I found one at Ginnie on top of a trash can and turned it into the shop. Looks like it fits a small DR head or maybe a Light Monkey head.

Yes Tom! Thanks! Now I have one for each lighthead..... happy diver. Thanks guys.

My buddy lost one jumping in OG yesterday. I have no use for a clip on handle. I guess because the lighthead turns, nothing solid can be mounted to it. I like an elastic band myself, more versitile

Yes thanks Stairman, I am pretty sure it was when I jumped in OG but could possibly have come off getting out at Peacock. I had the head clipped off to my d-ring and did not realize it was not there until I jumped in OG. It is a small worn out clamp with elastic I borrowed with a Light Monkey I rented from Linda at Cave East. If anyone finds it please return to Linda. I wont use one like that again, it does not hold light very securely, it comes off way too easy. Thanks. And since I have highjacked this post, I also lost a Scubapro bootie at Peacock a few weeks ago, I thought maybe my dog took it out of my garage, but it still hasnt shown up since diving 3 weeks ago. Yes, I know I need to take better inventory before leaving each site!
