Re: Let there be light

The "Technical Information" has got me completely baffled.It doesn't seem to have any relevance:

For use in polymer or aluminum tanks

Fire Test Capable: Yes

Hose Connection: 1-1/2"

Maximum fuel leakage is 0.5cc/m at 12.5 & 149kPa


A searchlight for use in tanks?
Fuel leakage?

WTF?

Re: Let there be light

I like these 60,000 lumen LED flashlights from China. I assume there's some exaggeration in their lumen count, but still, they produce some serious light.

60000LM 24x XML T6 LED Flashlight 5 Modes Torch 26650/18650 Camping Lamp Light | eBay

They're relatively inexpensive, and mostly waterproof (good enough to use on a rainy night, but not for diving).

You do have to deal with the 18650 batteries, but you can easily find 12V or 110V charging units for those.
