This Bigblue CF-250 Focusable LED Dive Light (Blue) is a compact but powerful LED dive light. The 1 XR-E LED provides 250 lumens of light. The CF-250 is powered with 4 AAA batteries; both Alkaline or NiMH will work. It has a burn time of up to 2.5 hours. The light is constructed from aluminum alloy, and is anodized, to be anti-corrosive.
The CF-250 can be used as a back-up light for cave diving or as a primary for some diving situations. The light has a color temperature of 6500 °K, and a focusable beam angle from 6° to 31°. Just twist the front to go from a wide even beam to a concentrated hot spot. Using the narrow beam could be useful for looking under ledges for lobsters and other marine life. The wide-beam is useful to restore natural color underwater. The light also features a magnetic swivel switch that makes one-hand operation easy.
The included Goodman-glove is constructed from soft neoprene, and has 2 adjustable touch fastener straps. On top of the glove is a slot for your light to slide into, and it is then secured by a stainless steel ring. This accessory can be worn on your hand or on your forearm. When worn on your hand, your fingers are free to handle a reel at the same time as the light.
Also included is a pouch constructed from neoprene with a nylon strap on the back used to attach to a weight, or BC belt. It can also be attached to a D-ring using a zip tie or a carabineer. The top flap of the neoprene pouch can be sealed with its touch fastener. Built into the pouch is a retractable stainless steel cord used to tether your light to prevent it from being lost.

Comments about Bigblue CF-250 Focusable LED Dive Light (Blue, Goodman-glove & Pouch):
This light works great in both day and night dives. The focus beam was bright enough during shallow dives to look under crevasses.
Unlike the other lights where you have to hold and twist the barrel, the sinlge handed operation of the switch works great.
Works well as a primary light for night dives.
