Under $600 USD it's a a great deal. I have one, I've had it for about 6 months with maybe 50 dives and no problems. If you are trying to impress people with how much you've spent on your lights, probably not for you. If you want a dependable, quality light for a decent price, it's perfect. I've been a Big Blue fan for years. I've owned some chinese made cheap lights that broke after a few dives. I've never had a problem with Big Blue or Orcatorch. The customer service for these two brands is awesome.
I agree with everything you've said there. I've now had this light for half a year or so, good chunk of dives on them and still happy!
A nice feature of being able to use your D630 battery as a USB power bank is when you travel by air. You have to carry your lithium batteries with you and not put them in checked luggage. So, as long you have to have it with you in the airplane cabin, you might as well be able to put it use to keep your entertainment devices working.
That's a very good point!
I understand that older arguments for a cannister light is burn-time. But with today's lithium ion batteries and power saving LEDs with TIR lenses, there are peoducers of non cabled tec lights with 4800 lumen on 10 degree angle. Max power it has 2+ hours burn time and on 1000lumen it has 12h burn time. How much burntime do you need to defend a cable today?
Im genuinly interrested since i have need of a new torch. Currently looking at bigblue TL3800P supreme, or bigblue4800P.
My budget is about 600 dollars.
Any tips are good but mostly i am curious to the arguments for a cannister light with today's technology.
Great priduct video as always, dude!
Not having to recharge after every dive is a big argument. I also find that having a smaller light in your hands (because the battery is placed elsewhere) is quite convenient when diving with a lot of equipment.
@@DiveSAGA and these arguments are of course subjective since what is long enough battery and light enough lighthead? Good to know. I thought there might be other reasons besides these.
I will hand it to orcatorch being able to use it as a powerbank is pretty sweet. 😎
Worried the batteries will be stopped at the airport tho. Any issues with the batteries on this one?
@@JonasPeltomaeki have not yet traveled with them but I'd say there should be no problem if you put the battery in your checked luggage
Yes there is a place for canister lights. First most of the canister light brands aren't the cheap Chinese brands, so when Dive Rite claims 4,000 lumens they actually put out 4,000 lumens out the front of the light, unlike other brands you mention which at best put out half the claimed brightness. So in order to get the 6 hour burn time you need a massive battery. A handheld battery would probably last about an hour for that light.
When you start doing 2 hour technical dives, a canister is the way to go. I upgraded from a handheld light with a rated runtime of 90 minutes to a 6 hour canister when 1.5 hour dives were becoming common for me.
Of course you can ask do I really need a light this bright, and TBH I've tested exiting on my much dimmer back up lights, and while I can see well enough it doesn't compare to how well I can see what I turn on my canister light.
@@Teampegleg i totally understand your point of view and i do know that many manufacturers report sort of incorrectly. Technically a pocketlamp can be constructed to throw 8000 lumen... For 2 minutes. Then it will start to step down radically to prevent melting in your hand. 45 minutes later it dies. "But technically it is a 8000lumen lamp with 45 minutes of burn time". Its technically not wrong... And. Alie at the same time.
I compare my nanight tech 2 rhat boasts 4500 lumen for 1,5h on max power. If i step it down to just under 2000lumen i get around 6 hours. And on lowest i am supposed to get 12 hours.
Its a canister light with cable, sold here for the equivalent price of about 600 euros.
Or i get a bigBlue 4800p Supreme which has the exact same performance as my nanight, a tighter more sharp beam, same burn time on same levels and 50 euros less... And no cable to mess with.
I dive in swedish murky waters so a right sharp beam is to be preferred.
The benefit of canister for me would be that if it is big enough it can power both a heated undergarment and a lamp (which can be a good solid benwfit in case there are needs) but for brightness/burn time/ beam, i am very impressed on how far the handhelds have gotten.
But in the end we all dive what we personally feel is best and that is the best. 😎👌 Dive safe!
How much mate ?
About $570 USD
@@DiveSAGA not too bad at all 😎
@@daveb6345 it's a good deal for what you get!
