I just checked the prices. as good as they may be, I could never justify the cost for my current level of diving. Hell, the 12w Rebel led is more than my BC!
I really appreciate the clue-in on Salvo though, I hadn't heard of them before now.
Can light prices seem absurd until you actually use one. Then you buy a small one. Then you start lusting after a bigger one. Then you sell your small one to fund the bigger one, and suddenly you have the very $1k flashlight you used to scoff at, and realize that someone would have to pry it from your cold dead hands to take it away...
$1k light? (I should confess, I have serious compensation issues when it comes to lights... but all my buddies have light envy when they dive with me!!)
