Video Comparison
Notes on Using the Different Test Videos
The following instructions should be followed for viewing the test videos:
- An absolute magnitude comparison is not possible, because the video camera, with the amount of incident light from the dive light, the iris automatically adjusts back. For this reason were also different distances chosen to show which dive lights have enough light intensity and coverage range.
- At 3 meters (9.84 ft) during the day almost ALL lights look very bright and overexpose the illuminated object (here a dwarf) quite clearly. Seeing a difference in brightness is here almost impossible.
- At 6 meters (19.69 ft) away by day it shows very plainly: only the strongest lights are able to illuminate the dwarf. So you can see very clearly which light at 6 meters (19.69 ft) and with good visibility at all is able to illuminate something. Weaker lights fall without mercy through at 6 meters (19.69 ft).
- At 6 meters (19.69 ft) away at night you can clearly see how much residual light every single dive light still produce to recognize something at the right and left side. Furthermore, here is the illumination and light intensity of the LED 2000 video in direct comparison to 3 meters (9.84 ft) and 6 meters (19.69 ft) to see.
- Direct comparison of two preferred lights: Here you can compare many lights to each other under exactly the same conditions. You can see then very clearly the weaknesses and strengths of the various lights.
- Important TIP why lumen for me as a diver does not help, or why the specification lumen for us divers not important is and leads to buy the "wrong" dive light, can be read here
