I wanted a dive torch
I wanted a dive torch, but I didn't want a cheap one and buy twice.
I'd seen the 230 in a dive shop and the other reviews were very positive, so I bought one when Simply Scuba had a deal on.
The torch is pretty bright (I have nothing to compare it with though, except household torches which it trounces) and feels very solidly made.
I've yet to use it in the water, but I can echo some of the concerns of others in that the provided lanyard looks pretty flimsy and the screw on/off action would mean that you might want to enter the water with it on and leave it that way until you get out to avoid the risk of flooding (however remote that would be in reality).
Simply's service was a good as ever and the torch looks and feels good value, but I'll have to reserve ultimate judgement until I get a chance to dive with it.
