Hi all,
Sorry for the extra spam, but for those interested - I burn tested the
1000NS on low setting with a top notch 3400mAh battery and got 12
hours. Enough to get out of any cave you're likely to encounter in
Australia at least.
Cheers,
Steve

Hi Jack & all,

For info - the 1000NS is what I use for cave diving as it has a very
focussed beam and is very small - although has a slightly larger head than
the 1000N (2 things which Pedro's Skyray possibly lacks, but it still looks
very interesting for video and night diving). Some interesting specs on it
from my previous experiments:

The current draw from the battery is:

2.25A on high

0.57A on medium

0.22A on low

From a high quality 3400mAh 18650 battery (I have plenty if anyone wants
one, they are about $15) I got 2.2hrs. The one which came with it says
2600mAh, and may be less. Which means on medium is should be about 8hrs,
and on low 20hrs.

Cheers,
Steve

Hey guys, looks great
These torches are really good, but recently I got two with 7 LED each,
instead of one, debiting > 7000Lumen for the same price (around 55$).

They have the same specs: beam high, low, med + SOS and depth ratings.

Been taking them in all night dives and the amount of juice coming out
is
ridiculous! 7000Lm for the price of 1000Lm its a pretty good deal.

They come with an extension if you want extra juice/longer burn times.

Can be operated with 18652 or 26650 battery

you ca have a look here

(if you search there are lots of offers, the lowest price I found was
50$)

anyway, just thought you might like to have at this new torch

Hi All,

I've attached the catalogue for the dive torches on offer. I have
included
the old catalogue which gives you the tech specs of each torch including
normal prices and also the 'special' clearance promotion prices in the
separate pdf. Please refer to Jack's email below and contact him for
more
information. You can probably order anything off the catalogue including
what is not on promotion but they may not have stock.

Regards

Adrian
PS. These are really good prices and while the club doesn't make any
money
from these orders our members get access to great deals! For a price
check
see this link (it's the same 1000N torch!):

Hi all,
I'll be making an order of dive torches with this mob -
http://www.superstar-global.com/index.html
They are having an end of year sale that only lasts until stocks run
out so
I need to order soon.

We've ordered with them several times in the past and their products are
awesome, historically the most popular choice has been the 1000N, it's
super bright, small, robust and rechargeable.

If you would like anything, please look through the sale prices PDF
attached and the spec sheets. Attached is also the normal catalogue for
reference, it also has some items not on sale. If you want to make an
order, PLEASE RESPOND TO THIS EMAIL, DO NOT SEND A SEPARATE ONE!!!
Please
answer each of the following questions in your reply.

1 - Quantities and types of torches you would like.
2 - Postage cost will likely be roughly an additional 25% on top of the
list price, do you agree to cover your share of this cost?
3 - The list prices are in USD and you will need to pay me back in AUD -
exchange rate isn't great at the moment. Still with me?
4 - If the sale price is not available because stocks are sold out,
would
you still like to order the torch(es) at the normal price?
5 - Your name and a contact number

I will be making the order first thing on Monday morning so get your
orders
in by Sunday night or you'll miss out. I anticipate torches to be in
Melb
some time early Jan but this could blow out... I'll send out my bank
details once I know the total postage cost and can split it between
everyone in the order. This means that I'll be fronting all the cash
monies
so once the order has been sent there will be no piking or I'll get
cranky.

Get excited guys, night diving, cave diving, wreck diving... All better
with a torch!

Cheers,
Jack

PS) No torches with lasers, they're illegal in Vic.
