Two used Light & Motion Sola Nightsea lights, along with three soft hand mounts, one hard hand mount, several ball mounts, & one charger. Full disclosure that the yellow filter to change the light back to white light for one of the lights is damaged. It does still work & stay on the light, but I believe in being up front & honest about what you're getting. Both lights appear to work & charge just fine. $400 for the pair plus shipping

Does anyone have any recommendations fora snoot that will fit an Inon Z-330 strobe? I've started looking, but haven't really seen anything that's impressed me. I'm wanting something that has various mask accessories so I can play with different sizes & shapes of light. Any help would be appreciated!

I've had a couple people reach out to see what I switched to from the Kraken adjustable float arms. Here's been my reply to those who reached out: I moved to the Ultramax Helium variable buoyancy system. It basically has stackable rings/inserts where you can customize the amount of buoyancy. Unfortunately it can't be done in the water like the Krakens, but it does break down much easier for travel, which is a huge plus for me. So I swapped my Nikon from using one set of Nauticam small float arms plus the set of Kraken floodable float arms, to two sets of helium arms. Here's their website: https://www.ultramaxdive.com/products/ultramax-helium-variable-buoyfloat-arm-system?variant=22638528856149

By no means am I saying that level of redundancy is necessary, but I just know that I'm going to do something stupid when I am on the other side of the world & I refuse to end a vacation because I kill a camera/housing 😂 Though I will say I don't tend to take the TG out a lot. I much prefer my D7000s. But I've been indoctrinated by my tech diving community that two is one & one is none. Hence the backups to the backups! Oh & I just landed a backup set of Z-330s. Can hardly wait to figure out where they're going to go 🤔🤣 -

These are amazing float arms that can be used with either video lights or strobes. They are designed to be able to flood to be able to get your camera perfectly neutral. There is no better feeling than getting your camera perfectly neutral in the water & knowing you can take your hands off it & it won't go anywhere! It will just float right in front of you. They have minor cosmetic scuffs from a couple of years of use, but have been regularly cleaned after each dive & are fully functional. New these will set you back $195 each from Backscatter, or you can purchase two from me for $200 plus shipping with payment via PayPal. I have loved these, but have moved on to a different float arm system. Help me find them a new loving home!

I bought this a couple of years ago to use on my Aquatica housing for my Nikon D7000. Never wound up using it so decided to hopefully find another loving home for it. Here is the original description from whom I bought it from (again I have never used it): "Works perfect. Has some tiny scratches near the retaining clip from the time I had nothing but a hex wrench to install the retaining clip. The scratches are nowhere near where the O-rings seal, not even on the same surface. The white thing is a little thingy I 3d printed to retain the clip and ball bearings while traveling." For reference, here is its description on Backscatter: https://www.backscatter.com/Inon-45-Angled-Underwater-Housing-Viewfinder $250 plus shipping via Paypal
