Canister lights?

Re: Canister lights?
I have used both Dive Rite and Salvo led lights. I bought the Dive Rite LED-500 first, and had nothing but problems with it. Sent it back to Dive Rite twice and it still had issues. Then I bought a Salvo 12 watt led, it also failed after one dive. However, Salvo paid to ship it back to them and back to me. It has been working great since, it costs a bit more, but is a much better light than the Dive Rite, IMO. It seems just as bright as a 10 watt hid, but does not penetrate quite as good in limited viz. In clear water the led is fantastic. I bought the led mainly for cave diving in Mexico, so the small size and durability for travel was a big plus. I do not like the snap in handle that comes with the Salvo, the light head pops out pretty easily so I water-jetted one out of delrin that clamps around the head to solve that problem. Overall I am very happy with the Salvo, and would recommend them to anyone.
