Lost Cannon Light!

80ft off the kelp in La Jolla, doubt it will be found, but you never know... It had a lobster gauge on the end of it. I replaced the Gauge that rusted off with a Trident guage, had to drill holes in it. It is the yellow one, and had a brass clip ziptied to it. Should have wrote my name on it.... bummed!

If found, your choice of Cervezas, or Sodas on me.

chris

it is this one, but as described above, now has a lobster guage and has the brass clip like the SL4 light. (partially cropped out)

Noooo! That sucks man, what a nightmare. That's why I was afraid to buy such a nice light. Good luck finding it.

Re: Lost Cannon Light!

Can you narrow down the spot a little bit? Not to sound like a smart ass, or to give away you light to anyone. But that is a lot of area to cover.
If you have numbers and need a ride out there, shoot me a pm.

Re: Lost Cannon Light!

That thing is better on the bottom, bro... Believe me. I've had 2 of those damn things and nothing but problems. Not to mention, UK has the WORST customer service of any company I've EVER dealt with in my life. You'd think if you spent 200 bills on a light, they'd make sure it worked or replace it.

Pick yourself up at PrincetonTec Miniwave LED for under a 100 bucks, you'll never go back. Trust me.

I got the 8 battery Princenton Tec (Shockwave) LED light and it's SICK!

Two of my friends who have that UK light ALWAYS have problems with them and once one of them scuba by my light while i was freediving cause his died 30 minutes into the dive after charging overnight

Me neither, only issue I have had is hitting it on a rock and having it turn off.

Re: Lost Cannon Light!

Mine turns off too. If I hit it on a rock that is. Why?

Because it sucks. Mine did that all the time. Every little bump would turn it off and then sometimes it'd come back on, sometimes it wouldn't. I tossed them both. Horrible piece of equipment.
