does it work when scuba diving?

sorry, haven't tried that. it does have o-rings, but not sure how deep or how much pressure it can take.

I know the flashlight is waterproof because I submerged it for about 20 minutes after I first bought it to make sure. I don't know how well it will performs while scuba diving or what Depth but I do know that I've dropped plenty of fluids on it at work. Aircraft fuels, hydraulic fluids or oils and have dropped it a few times and it performs very well probably the best flashlight ever owned.

Though I do have a heavy duty plastic Cannon Elf camera housing that does not have much more of a seal to it that is rated to about 30 meters/100 feet I wouldn't want to take this light down more than 1 or 2 feet on purpose. It is clearly quite water "resistant" at low pressures in shallow water. It is also not marketed as SCUBA equipment and I would assume that is for good reason as they could charge much more if it was. I have dropped this light in the gutter while changing a tire in a rainstorm, etc. with no problems but beyond that? I do have a lot of SCUBA experience as a TDI tri-mix divemaster and the seals on this light do not look like they are designed to take much real water pressure.

Never tried.. I seriously doubt it though. I actually scuba dive and from experience with dive lights I can tell you this is not one

The only real reason this flashlight can not be used as a dive light is the power actuation button on the end. If you add additional O-rings to the tubing/head groups (where applicable), that will seal all the joints beyond any doubt. Unfortunately, the pressure of diving will push past the rubber button on the end. Solve that issue and you will have a moderate depth dive light.

Elysian, although it has gaskets does not provide a tight "water proof" seal needed when scuba diving. I have been very impressed with this light but would not recommend for use when scuba diving.

I took it to the pool and did some laps with it. It would work sporadically, it matters how deep your head goes underwater And how far the device is. I hung my phone in a bag midway thru the lap and that helped with distance. It worked well in jacuzzi after. So you can swim with them but not recommended. It's more of a selling point to stress the water durability of the product.

Dear Irma, I am not sure what is specified question, but hope my answer will help you. Its a very nice water bag, I have used it in the sea trips and in a water park leasure areas. I went with the bag all around waters and sea sport activities. It works. I never dive with the bag. Not sure if you mean diving activities, I never tried it. To keep your stuff away from water in general water activities, yes it works. I do recommend it for that purpose. Regards

Yes but if you try to dive down deep enough to have to equalize (10+ft), you most likely will blow out the valve in the mask as I did on mine. This set should be strictly used for surface snorkeling and NOT scuba!

Yes, I works underwater but it's better you start the monitor outside the water and wait for the monitor to connect to the chest strap.

That's a good question. I don't believe that it's water tight. So, in the short term, you could use it for scuba diving, but it would likely get water inside and possibly rust or otherwise not last very long after. That said, getting some great shots underwater might be worth the cost of the item.

Hi TJ, I've worn it while swimming and it still works. Not deep sea diving or anything, just in a pool swimming in a sportive way. Also I've been wearing it in the shower for 9 months now. I do avoid pushing the button when in the water, no idea if that's necessary, but that's just what I've been doing. Hope that helps..

I don't know. I bought the snorkel for my husband who recently died and no one else has used it. So I am not really sure how it is supposed to work.

I do not recommend this mask. We could never get it to work. I bought it for my daughter who dives, for Christmas and went diving with it in June. Wouldn't work and company never responded to my requests for help.

Unfortunately I'm in the middle of the Desert right now so it's being tested with the extreme heat, blowing sand, sweat, and dust. It's performed great so far. I have not been in the water w/ it yet. I am a scuba diver and it is guaranteed waterproof down to 33 feet so I will test it for you when I have the chance. It should work just fine. Just make sure you rinse it in fresh water if you take it into salt water. Salt water will destroy any metal over time.

Hello,Absolutely not! That is the beauty of this product. It works underwater. Thank you for your interest.Calli Books

It works as far as breathing goes. You won't struggle for air, but it isn't made to work like a genuine respirator.

probably, but it will be dirty air vs the clean air you receive from SCUBA shops. Why not just regulate the output down to 150-200 with a second regulator? There is also a "shoe box" sold that allows you to use a regular shop air compressor to completely fill a high pressure tank.

This device is not waterproof. There are special waterproof containers for cameras, and most scuba shops rent cameras that will work underwater.

I have scuba dived with it. It is not particularly useful. The wrist mount does not point naturally in a direction that you want to shoot.I would recommend something that points in the direction that you want to shoot. A head or chest mount, or a head mount with a pole that points back towards you would be better. It is not particularly stable either as the strap will only tighten so far. The strap holding the mount to the wrist strap is not tight and can come loose; you won't lose the camera, but it will dangle from the other strap mount and footage will be 'shaky' to say the least.

the jack was not made to work underwater BUT in an emergency you use whatever you have at hand to undo whatever you have gotten yourself into or the place you are at that you do not want to be. you have to remember that the tool is there for the job NOT the job for the tool sometimes DC voltage items will work underwater short time only

It has amazing sound pick up even when wearing in a shirt pocket. It picks up cars and birds including narration. The mic is not really directional so it picks up what you hear. Under water it tends to pick up scuba bubbles if it is not placed correctly, even though it is in it's case. However, in it's case it is limited to it's pick up. The source has to be quite close.
