There is another thread asking the same thing here.
I own one and no problems. Customer service is super.

There aren't many out there that have them but those that do love them.

I have the blackwater. I really wish that I had an LED but the money isn't there. Since I bought the Blackwater used for video I can't complain. It does what I want it to.

Take my advice and save your money. You can find used 10 HID for $300.

I have their Pro Diver in Halogen (10 + 15watt) setup. It's a decent light for recreational night diving, but now that I'm into tech diving, I need a much brighter light for signaling.

Also, don't use their head mount system. It will blind your buddies when you look towards them. What's more, when you have a light that closely mounted to your eyes, you will see all the reflective particles near your face. You don't want that because it's gives a distorted view during night time. I recommend a soft Goodman handle instead.

If you still want to buy this light after reading my experience, IM me. I sell you mine at a blow out price.
