Review: Great little light, Instructor recommended - As an instructor I feel a good dive light is, perhaps, one of the most vital and underrated pieces of equipment that a diver can carry with them, even on daytime dives. That said, most of the time size and weight are a primary concern. I've been diving with this light for about two weeks so far and I am extremely impressed! Bottom line, this little light is absolutely worth the price as it's construction and performance are better than every other light in this price range I've had experience with. This light comes with a charger, TWO 18650 batteries, a spare set of o-rings, and the light itself. The light is extremely slim and light, but that is no indication of the light level that this thing produces. It is very bright! I compared it to a 600 lumen light I usually dive with and it is noticeably brighter than that, so I believe the 1000 lumen claim. The specs say that the light color is supposed to be 5000K, I find that it is a bit cooler - maybe 3500-4000K, yet I find that more beneficial in water that has some particulate (less backscatter and better penetration). Battery life is fine, we typically do one hour dives from the boat, and the battery lasts at least that long. It's my standard procedure to change the battery in my lights during surface interval, so I haven't tried to push the battery life to it's limits. In truth, the battery is mostly responsible for battery life, and the power drain from the LED allows for at least a full hour of "on" time. The construction of this light is very solid. Water tightness is secured by a triple o-ring system (they did not arrive with any silicone grease on them - put some on before you dive with it) that works very well. The body of the light is metal and solid, this is NOT a cheap plastic product. The light is turned on by a twist, and is a very solid switching system. This light does not flicker, it's definitely on or off. I was taking pictures of it's performance underwater, for this review in particular because I've been so impressed with it. Unfortunately my camera flooded (it wasn't as water tight as this light), so I will update this review with pictures at a later time. I am so impressed with this light that I am purchasing a second one and will also look to purchase the push button light from the same company. I highly recommend this light for any diver looking for a good quality light at a fair price.
Review: Awesome light! - Just tried out my new Orcatorch. First let me say I am pretty much a flashlight freak and own many good ones. This one blows them all away. Best construction I have seen in a light this size or any size for that matter. I have a large 1000 lumen light that requires 4-D cell batteries. This one is much smaller and just as bright. Batteries, charger and light all show quality in there construction. I am taking it on a week long dive trip to Cozumel soon and will use it on a night dive with a large group. I am already convinced that I will have the best light on the dive. Has plenty of flood type beam with a nicely focused center to boot. Very, very impressed! Highest recommendation I could possibly give an online purchase. I'm a believer! Update: used both of them that we purchased on our night dive and on a dive we did on a rainy, overcast day. Both performed flawlessly and we recieved many compliments on their performance. They were as good or better than all of the more expensive lights that the other divers were using. We were able to get good GoPro footage with them also.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Extermely bright light great for photography, primary or a backup light!
*by G***. on July 26, 2019*

Trying out the orcatorch for the first time opened up a whole new way of diving for me. This is the first good quality light I have purchased and I have been extremely impressed. The wide angle on the light is great, it gives me the ability to light up everything I need to see making it perfect for photography or to see small creatures. This light brings out the colors in all the sea life bringing a whole new light (no pun intended) to diving for me. Even when I was using it on a recent dive with buddy's who spent hundreds on their lights that couldn't even get close to the quality of the orcatorch. It comes with two batteries which is perfect to be able to switch out between dives, although I found myself not having to due to the 2 hour battery life. The three O ring design on the light makes me confident that this light is not going to flood or break any time soon. I would highly recommend this light to anyone looking for a good quality light that they can trust for a good affordable price.
