I've been i the water many times with buddys who have had one. It's a darn powerfull light and very white too. Last time was two weeks ago. had a UK D8 light and much of the time I just looked at where ever his ligt was pointing. If only I could justify to cost. I am looking at their LED camister lights

i decided to lay down some decent $ on it, the 35W was too much $ and proabably overkill, i was torn betweeen the LED and HID the wrecks here in New England are cold and dark so it'll be perfect

I could only afford the 10w Adjustable HID Salvo. I couldn't imagine what the 21/35w lights look like....

Oxycheq has one in the pipeline as well. May be worth waiting a little bit, since their backup has blown away so many lights.

I have the 21W and a 10W and most of my diving the 10W is fine but the 21W is great for open areas.

Give us a report as soon as you can. I have been researching a can light for a while. I've been leaning towards the Salvo 21 HID, but I hear great things about the LED. At least I HAVE to wait to buy mine. Let's see where the LED technology is in another year.

Maybe the HID will come down in price if LED takes off.
