For the mini/maxi compact we offer interchangeable LED modules (mini compact 2x3Watt/maxi compact 3x3Watt, beam characteristic: spot).
The functions of the lamp, such as power control, activation of the SOS distress signal, and remaining burn time warning as well as total discharge warning will be fully sustained.
The existing reflector unit is replaced by the appropriate LED module. After removal of the halogen illuminant the electric contact is established by plugging in an adapter plug into the socket.
The electronic is protected against reverse polarity of the adapter plug.
What are the advantages of an LED-light?
An LED has an extremely long life span. It is considerably longer than that of a halogen bulb.
The LED is hard to break and very durable.

 

The cold white (bluish) light of an LED is not as strongly absorbed by the water as the warm white (reddish) light of a halogen bulb. Therefore, underwater an LED light has a greater range.
Due to the individual perception (only in dark environments!), cold white LED light seems to be stronger than warm white halogen light .
What are the disadvantages of an LED-light?
Fairly high costs of the LED and the necessary electronics.
Bad rendition of the red colour.
Conclusion:
We recommend the use of an LED-illuminant for night dives in freshwater, for dives in murky and cloudy water and for cave dives.
Despite a rather low power consumption of the LED modules, a sufficient brightness and a considerable longer burn time is achieved.
