10 Reviews: Best Dive Light for Night Diving (Mar 2023)

The Acebeam D20 is a palm-sized dive light powered by a powerful CREE XHP35 HD LED. The IMR21700NP-510A is a 5100mAh 21700 Li-ion rechargeable battery with a built-in Micro-USB charging port and a charge-discharge USB cable. The Micro-USB rechargeable 5100mAh 21700 battery removes the need to carry along another device due to its increased run time. The light has a depth of 200 meters and emits 2700 lumens. It’s quite light, weighing just 128 grams.

At the Consumer Electronics Show (CES), MiXXAR has shown off a new line of underwater diving lights. The company, recognized for its high-quality LED goods, offers spearfishing torch lights with five XM-L T6 beads and a 10,000-lumen output brightness. You can count on these torches to survive for a long time without breaking or catching fire since they’re made to last. Up to 80 meters of visibility is possible with these lights, which generate a brilliant neutral white light (or 100 meters). The flashlights may be used for scuba diving, fishing, salvaging, and underwater photography. MiXXAR is the greatest spearfishing torchlight on the market if you want a high-quality product.

Stong led light makes night dive like dive in the day.

The OrcaTorch D550 is a reliable 1000-lumen dive light from OrcaTorch that has a good reputation for long-term use. It has a lithium-ion CR18650 rechargeable battery, as well as a charging connector and cable. 2 hours of continuous usage on the maximum brightness level, or around 6 hours on the lowest brightness setting, may be expected from this battery. For most dives, this should be more than enough time. It takes around 7 hours to completely recharge the battery, and it’s always good to have a backup on hand.

Used on 4 dives so far and light is plenty bright for night diving and day (peering into crevices). Battery lasted through 2 night dives without recharge.

You’ll be using Sola for years when you get accustomed to how it works, that’s how easy and adaptable it is. It’s waterproof, lasts up to 6 hours, and is so bright that your diving friends may not need to bring their lights. Instead of straps, it clings to your hands with ballistic Cordua fabric, which many professional and working divers find handy. It’s intended for all levels of divers. It includes a spectacular dual-beam system that can be switched as needed. The flood beam encompassing a 60-degree range is perfect for interested divers who want to see coral polyps or aquatic plants up close with their video cameras. A 12-degree spot beam that helps you navigate the seas and locate sharks from meters away.

I bought this light for night diving and it did not disappoint. With the light on flood mode it worked flawlessly with my gopro. Most lights have hot spots, but on flood this did not. [...]

This remarkable Sola light is developed for diving experts and technical adventures, with a penetrating 8° spot beam for great light penetration and excellent signaling even in the most difficult of visibility conditions. Instructors, stage divers, and public safety authorities will appreciate the Dive Pro’s strong output and extended runtime mode. The external charging port and quick charge circuits make recharging the tiny platform a breeze. The Dive Pro is compatible with an optional battery pack or automobile charging connections, enabling recharging when electricity is not available or 12v outlets are the only practical alternative, to meet the expectations of professionals.

Good enough to catch lobsters!

It features a Super Bright light with a maximum brightness of 3000 lumens, and the beam distance of this diving waterproof flashlight is up to 100m. It has a clever design. Turning on/off the light and adjusting the brightness from low to medium to high by rotating the magnetic ring. One rechargeable battery powers the device. The flashlight’s aircraft-grade aluminum alloy housing and hard-anodized finish make it rust and corrosion-resistant. IPX8 waterproof level, up to 100 meters underwater, ideal for a variety of outdoor activities such as diving, hunting, hiking, and so on.

Love this light. Went night diving with it, and it didn't disappoint! High lumens and long battery life makes this one of my favorite and most reliable diving tools. I use it for construction and camping as well.

The Light & Motion SOLA 800 is ideal for night diving and photography. The wrist strap provides for the hands-free operation of this high-tech space-saving light. With 800 lumens 60° wide beam and 500 lumens 12° spotlight, it has three power levels. This light may be used as a flood or a spotlight. Led picture light with a wide beam for lighting up the surroundings. If the water is murky, shine a flashlight through the particles. The SOLA is 285g light. The included wrist strap secures it without your hands. So little and light that you won’t even notice it.

Best light, after night diving with the Sola Dive Light I felt in love with it, I could see every thing and its fantastic the 3 different setting that the light has, easy to work.

2500 in its name alludes to its large 120° beam angle. No hot areas with this strong light. Upon submission, darkness becomes day. You’d think a diving light this strong would be short-lived. The Sea Dragon can run at maximum brightness for 60 minutes before the low power lights flicker and the Sea Dragon automatically switches to low power mode. The “low” power option still produces 1200 lumens for two hours, which is excellent.

Excellently designed light that was indispensable for night dives and was diffused enough to allow excellent underwater photography. I used it as my primary dive light. [...]

A diving light that won’t overexpose your photographs is the Light & Motion GoBe broad beam light. Its soft beam has no harsh edges or hotspots, making it ideal for photography and filmmaking. The GoBe light has several advantages. First, it’s little. It’s small enough to fit in your palm and still produces 1000 lumens. This dive light’s battery is larger than the common CR18650 lithium battery found in many dive lights. The GoBe is also flexible, allowing you to replace the light head with a GoBe 800 or GoBe 500 spot head, thereby converting it into a spotlight.

Big Blue is a well-known maker of high-quality dive lights, and their Big Blue AL12000NP-II model is popular among night divers. This torch produces a soothing but bright light at its lowest power setting, which may last up to 20 hours. The battery life of this torch makes it a fantastic backup light, and I recommend pairing it with a wide-beam torch like the Mares torch EOS 20Rz.

I mounted this light on my speargun, and it works like a champ. It is super bright.
