I bought three of these torches now and I'm in the process of adapting them for fluo diving. I've never tried fluo diving before but I find it very attractive and I love the DIY potential. I already managed to mount a compatible blue led on one, but I couldn't remove the LED assembly from the head, which made the soldering a bit difficult (had to solder with the iron inside the parabolic head). I wonder what you exactly unscrew to disassemble that? Or is mine a different model that is maybe a single piece? If you find the project interesting, we could get in touch and exchange some ideas on tinkering with torches.<br /><br />Take care and happy diving,<br /><br />FrancescoRincewindhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07233780028841808694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8278117808961939973.post-4369620704706360262015-12-02T10:57:18.529+00:002015-12-02T10:57:18.529+00:00Like this one?

Wonder what the runtime would be at higher mA ? Ideally for my dive lights it needs to be 75mins approx for two dives... as a minimum...<br />John<br />JohnohUKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09500074383053235941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8278117808961939973.post-36268337318157024312014-06-30T09:21:30.594+01:002014-06-30T09:21:30.594+01:00Hi!

I'm now taking the triple XML light with me as well, just because it gives out a lot my light.Batteries, I use the Xtar 2800s and they are fresh for each days diving.<br />JohnohUKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09500074383053235941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8278117808961939973.post-50653632930586041462014-06-03T11:55:35.693+01:002014-06-03T11:55:35.693+01:00Great review.

I doubt you will get 6800lm out of it as everyone seems to exaggerate the output, probably more like 3500-4000lm... the other thing I've just found with my triple XML torch is the runtime is low... say 30mins so you need a fresh set of batteries for every dive.Try it and let us know...John<br />JohnohUKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09500074383053235941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8278117808961939973.post-67759243924430264952014-05-18T09:49:23.255+01:002014-05-18T09:49:23.255+01:00Do you think that this one could be as great as yo...Do you think that this one could be as great as yours? http://www.ebay.it/itm/150m-Dive-6800Lm-4x-CREE-XM-L2-LED-Diving-Light-Flashlight-Torch-Lamp-w-Battery-/321405944125?pt=UK_SportsLeisure_Camping_LightsLanternsTorches&var&hash=item4ad549813d&_uhb=1Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02765410812748545949noreply@blogger.com
