I can't find that thread. It was a comment by someone who said he doesn't bring it down unless he has to because it is prone to flood. I have that focus light and the red flood indicator light came on when I was on land before it even went in the water. It is being fixed now but do they really tend to flood easily?

No, that wasn't the thread but it is interesting reading. Thanks.

That wasn't it. Maybe I read it on another board. LOL. It was a discussion about the Fisheye and the diver said he doesn't take it down unless he absolutely has to.Thread title is Fantasea Nano focus light. I think Bruce got his lights confused.Steve

I think it was this board...the Dutch guy who said it cost $400 and he was worried to take it down ONLY if he had to?
If was about using a focus light and WA for perhaps CFWA...an offhand remake about how expensive it costs (Fisheye) and relatively prone to flooding...

It was me; and it was a little tongue in cheek - since the lights are so expensive. But on a liveaboard trip a couple years ago (14 photographers) - I saw 2 flood in 10 days. Coincidence - maybe. Both of the floods came in the middle of the dive at depth. So I have been really careful ever since - and I do usually leave it on the boat when shooting wide angle.

Thank you both. I thought I was going crazy. Well, I am, but I thought I was aware that I was going crazy.

No problems.... I got the same light and have not used it yet..... I plan to be super careful too but will take it down with me on probably all dives unless in very shallow waters....
