Hello Everyone,

I must revise my post to give all members a heads up. I just returned from Mexico, my wife and I did the full cave course. Amazing course, very challenging. Anyways, about the lights. I was using the GF diamond backup and my wife, the Intova LED. The Intova is 3 times brighter than the GF. Being in a cave and having a GF as a backup would make me nervous. Not a bright light at all and very scattered. Plus, they cost twice as much as the Intova. GreenForce makes a great primary light and I have no complaints about those but I would not purchase another backup unless they do some major upgrades.

I emailed Green Force regarding my dissatisfaction with the Diamond Backup and they have inidcated that they are planning on releasing something new at DEMA this year. Just have to wait and see..............
