The nano compact re-chargeable underwater lamp is our first lamp utilising the lithium manganese cell technology. Theses cells are the latest development in lithium cell technology and allow us to combine the features of a small compact lamp with above average power attributes in an extremely safe design.
These cells have distinct advantages in regard to safety compared to nickel cadmium and nickel metal hydride cells particularly when they are overloaded or age. When the cells deteriorate with age, the chemical reaction in the lithium manganese cell does not produce the highly explosive hydrogen gas. In addition to this, there is no danger of the explosive reaction between lithium and cobalt metals, possible in lithium ionen cells. |

Thanks to this stability and safety in the lithium manganese cells, we are now able to construct a lamp that can be charged without opening the housing, an attractive feature for divers, but one we were unable to endorse without the application of lithium manganese cells.
Despite the feature of charging the lamps in a closed housing, the nano compact lamps also have the plug in power pack for quick and simple replacement of the cell pack making a 2nd cell pack an ideal companion on dive trips.This feature also allows the user to replace an aged cell pack without the need and expense of sending the lamp in to a specialist workshop for cell replacement. The re-charging time of the lamp with the standard off-shore charger 1/6 takes approx. 3 hours.
