I haven't dropped in the water yet, but they say it floats.
Diving gear, including flashlights or cameras, that has been tested under 'SO MANY ATMOSPHERES OF PRESSURE' will provide a depth the item will remain "waterproof' to or will provide a depth over time From past experience this means casual or momentary exposure or contact with water.
The flashlight is sold with 'waterproof' and 'floating'.
I think you might want a more specialized flashlight for a specific use underwater, however, it has not leaked yet. I have it for emergencies and not for regular submersive use like diving. QUESTION: HOW FAR DOWN IN THE WATER CAN THIS FLASHLIGHT GO? DEPTH WISE UNTIL IT WILL LEAK? I went snorkeling with this light and it failed the first time I used it.
I wouldn't trust it, mine leaked in and doesn't work.
That's why I bought it and have it on my boat. Probably could get away with snorkeling, but it's really about floating and working submerged, like unfowling a prop on a boat or something like that. QUESTION: IS IT GOOG FOR DIVING? HOW DEEP CAN IT GO? The other 4 have been working very good !! I dropped one of the 5 flashlights, that I purchased from Amazon, and after I dropped that Flashlight at never worked again. I'm not sure yet if I have another problem not related to the batteries. The arrows point to the opposite direction and it won't work this way. The base of the battery, or negative end, should go against the spring. I noticed the directional arrow inside the battery pack was pointed the wrong way.
Have had a problem with mine so checked batteries and reinstalled them.
I have arthritis in my hands and it might be more of a problem to me. Oak, I gave this flashlight to 6 of my family, and all have enjoyed it and haven't mentioned any problems.
I've only used it about 2-3 times but didn't have trouble with it turning off and on.
be sure to press the on/off button firmly until it clicks. it will be back on my sailboat if spring ever gets here. used it to hunt down a squirrel in my attic. Maybe you could make sure there are no burrs on the main body mating surface or trim it back a little -so the head screws in a little farther -and the center and side contacts touch properly.
I never had that problem- but if I unscrew the head a quarter turn it goes out.
If it's not firm and tight, a circuit won't be completed. Then make sure black piece is screwed back on tight. On the batteries, unscrew the top black piece - turn hard if necessary, but it will come off. The manufacturer has NO DIRECTIONS for such, and that is certainly delinquent on that. For one thing, make sure batteries are installed, and installed properly according to the polarity markings. QUESTION: HAS ANYONE ELSE HAD TROUBLE WITH THE FLASHLIGHT NOT ALWAYS TURNING ON? NOT SURE WHAT'S WRONG WITH IT BECAUSE I JUST GOT IT.
