"Not", I have always been the first to say proof is in the pudding (in this case lake goo), but very soon I will have that proof.

X-Ray LED Light

Best U/W Dive light I have seen hands down!! I know, bold statement and I may be jumping to conclusions and I should qualify that my statement is based solely on topside experience, but...WOW!! Being a light-junky and dark murky lake diving junky like many here on this board...IMHO if you desire the...

Re: je boyden

Cant we all just not leave line around a wreck??
Survey a wreck in 35' of water, can't the surveyors lay and clean each dive??
Can't we just put the gloves on and solve this Turf War??

Back on track, someone who has read or commented on this thread knows who left the line or left the line themselves, man or woman up and say that you did or know who did and either explain and pay respects or declare mutiny and tell all the camps to piss off. "Or" bicker, whip it out, and ...

Thanks for the suggestion, IMHO Bill Stone is the most under-publicized explorers of our time. You can find some of his lectures online, they are a bit lingering to follow but informative to say the least.

Re: Need help resolving an intractable problem, LED or HID

No brainer...LED, but I only have murky lake dives next to HID's to support that opinion. Funny thing is, it seems that HID out performs LED in ambient lit diving in good vis, the murk is where the LED punches through. Oh well some say tomato, some say potato.

Re: Why the short can?

I will be diving with one in the next few days, and will be a stocking dealer and sharing a booth at the dive expo with edge-lights (If the dive proves a success). So far I am impressed for an economical can light.
