I would have to disagree with you on that generalization. The Salvo uses a single LED and focuses just like an HID. That is why their LED offerings are superior to the DR LEDs. I had the original DR LED300 and loved it for the size and convenience, but the beam was a huge problem for me due to the poor signalling capabilities. I am surprised that they have not fixed their design yet. So, as it related to the three LED DR lights, I would agree that they are not ideal for anything that would require a tight beam (i.e. signalling in caves), but the Salvos do not have the same deficiency.

BTW - I dive the Salvo 21W LED and my buddy Sam dives the 12W LED.
