[PSUBS-MAILIST] LED light

[Alan via Personal_Submersibles]

Hank,
it's got me puzzled. It says 560W for a high / low beam combo,
& then other lights are 50W for the same. The highest power I
could see on deal extreme was 120W. Thought there was a
legal limit to car headlight intensity!
Look forward to hearing about them when you get them.

Now thats' bright;-)  I am not sure how they will work but for the 10 minutes it took to put bulbs in my fixtures, it is worth a try.  I do NOT want to rely on one light source.  Imagine you drive 4 hr to the dive location then 1 hr to get on site then you dive 380 feet to the wreck and you spot the gold and your light quits.  At 380 feet it is dark!   I currently have three separate light sources with separate power sources and separate switches.
