The First High Intensity Dive Light That Runs
Brighter Underwater.
The C8 eLED
®
Plus combines two intense LEDs into one narrow, incredibly
even 10-watt beam pattern free of uneven spots and ‘beam borders’. Unlike
conventional xenon filament lamp lights that grow dim with use, UK’s unique
eLED
®
circuitry maintains constant brightness for the life of the batteries.
When longer burn times are needed, the user can switch to low power mode
to extend the life of its eight alkaline C batteries. Polarized battery contact
plates make it possible to interchange individual battery cells and rechargeable
packs as well as prevent potentially dangerous reverse battery insertion.
Featuring a proprietary “through the lens” heat sink and a unique dual power
electronic circuit to control the matched pair of 5-watt LED's developed by UK,
the new C8 eLED
®
Plus offers scuba divers a high-intensity dive light that runs
brighter underwater and maintains constant brightness throughout the
battery’s life. For every one-degree drop in temperature, the new C8 eLED
®
Plus increases its lumen output by 2 percent. When immersed in water, heat is
drained from the LEDs, improving the lumen rating of the unit by 10 to 15
percent. By using the ocean as an immense heat sink, UK’s through-the-lens
heat sink technology ensures that the two high-flux LEDs run at optimum
temperature and provide consistent illumination while diving.
The C8 eLED
®
Plus also features a dovetail handle slot, which is molded into
the case for balancing the location of optional pistol or lantern style grips.
Other features include a lamp that will not burn out, locking switch mechanism
which prevents accidental activation during travel and a rubber lens guard.
Offering more than twice the output of its predecessor (a maximum of 170
lumens), the C8 eLED
®
Plus is the brightest in its class, perfect for piercing the
darkness and looking into the great unknown.
