I bought four of these for a family trip. Blue(x2), Green and Orange. The blue and the green are a rich nice color. The orange on the other hand is very faint and hard to see. These lights have a soft, mellow blink, rather than a flash or strobe. When night diving with these, they do not frighten the aquatic life. These lights are negatively buoyant, and tend to hang down around the regulator rather than float upward. They are made out of an aluminum housing. That is very solid and very durable. It’s a simple twist on twist off design makes it easy to operate without accidentally turning it off during a dive.
