Wurkkos DL02 Scuba Diving Light,3000 Lumens 6500K Dive Light with Rotary Magnetic Switch,IPX8 Waterproof 496M Long Throw 100M Underwater 3 Lighting Modes Submersible Flashlight for Night Diving

This is a really nice light! First off, the amount of light this thing puts out is wild for its size and price point. On high, this flashlight can get up to 3000 lumens, while medium is rated for 1000lm, and low at 300lm. During my testing, I was able to get it to fully illuminate a house 200m/650ft away at night without any problems. The functionality of this light is very straightforward with impressive results, being able to throw a long distance while also giving you plenty of usable flood light in the process. The color temperature is between 6000-6500k, which is a bit cool for my tastes, but I imagine it's better suited for diving than a warmer temperature. The light is really hefty, with its full metal construction and large battery that comes included. According to the manual, the battery seems like it will last a long time, but I haven't run it all the way down yet. One unique thing that I really liked about this light is that it included a small charger for the 21700 battery, which isn't super common. It's also very tough - it's well built and actually waterproof, which I tested out by submerging it in a glass of water for about 15 minutes. While it's not the same as diving down 100m with this light, it's definitely watertight. Overall, I would definitely recommend the DL02. For a light this bright that includes both the battery and charger in the box while also being waterproof, this is a really solid deal!

Looks well built, charger works well, and it's extremely bright. The switch is precise and easy to use with one hand. Love the small fornat for spearfishing. Can't wait to test it in the water.

First off I want to state I received this light for the purpose of reviewing by Wurkkos. I will put forward likes and dislikes about the light in hope of helping those considering it for purchase. Most of my use with the light was over several nights as I walked the dogs. The light seemed well packaged and included a few accessories like extra O-rings, lanyard, a USB-C charger and a short charge cable. The charger isn’t anything fancy but got the job done and is fairly compact. The light also had a protective tab inside to keep the battery from making contact with one of the springs during shipment. The larger size lanyard is easy to put on and take off and the rubber tube is a nice touch. The switch was my favorite part about the light. Being able to find the switch easily in the dark and pick just what mode you want in a hurry was great. I also really like the overall smooth aesthetic and feel of the design. I did a minimal water submersion test and operated the switch under water and it seemed to keep water out just fine. The color balance of the LED is pretty cool but seemed appropriate for the intended purpose of the light and for good clarity at night. This LED seemed pretty powerful and put out a good amount of light. It also gets warm pretty quick on high. The 21700 battery is a nice slim battery for its capacity and gives good battery life. The ability to mechanically lock out the light by unscrewing the head half a turn or so is helpful. If putting the light in a bag this is a great idea so it can’t accidentally get turned on. I also like that the light uses a non-proprietary battery. The battery level indicator is always on if the light is on. My biggest dislike was not having a fourth lower power setting. I had to train myself to keep the spot on the horizon and use the less intense part of the beam to look at things up close. This method seemed to help and I got pretty used to it. The lanyard hole also has slightly harder edges and was a little thinner than I really liked but once the lanyard is installed it didn’t seem to be a problem and felt pretty sturdy. All things considered the DL02 feels like a solid light. It has a bit of weight to it at 7 ounces (200 grams) with the battery. The more I used the light the more I liked it. For me the biggest improvement that would make the light much more versatile would be one more additional lower power setting. The switch is different than most but what makes it unique and fun to use.

The DL02 is another great flashlight from Wurkkos. Created with diving in mind, the flashlight has a rotary switch used to access the 3 different modes, on one side is low and medium, which is 300 and 1000 Lumens respectively, or you can switch it the other way to get high mode, which is a full 3000 lumens! The flashlight comes with a smooth reflector and an SFT70 led, so you get a beautiful beam that is rated for an impressive 496m of throw. The smooth reflector means you also get 61500 candela. I haven’t had a chance to use it underwater, but its construction makes me confident that it will do great. Some may not like the lack of onboard charging (the flashlight comes with an independent charger that will charge the included 21700 battery as well as many others in your collection), but this lack of a port means that the flashlight can accompany you underwater properly. Great flashlight for diving, but also great for emergencies (waterproof) or for someone who just wants a basic flashlight that is super bright! The switch is very satisfying to click back and forth, and the beam is beautiful, check out my video to see it in action. Wurkkos has done it again!

While I did not use this flashlight for diving, it certainly passes for waterproof and makes for a rock solid flashlight that can be taken camping, adventuring, boating, or just used around the house. The key feature of this light is the simple brightness toggle with three modes. The beam is very bright with good reach. It does not get excessively hot to the touch, like some. I tested the turbo mode for 15 minutes, and found the numbers to match the advertised specifications. High/turbo lasts for 6+ minutes after its initial step down in brightness, which is very good. And it holds the same brightness after that for a long time. The light can be held a couple different ways, as pictured. The mode toggle is very easy to use - perhaps too easy for carry in a pocket. While there is no internal battery charging, it was a nice inclusion to have a battery charger in the package. My only complaints would be the very smooth finish of the handle. Grip tape should be an easy solution there. I wish the lowest brightness was dimmer - I think it would benefit from having a fourth brightness setting. Also, the light does not stand on its tail very well. Overall, highly recommended for general use purposes!

This light is really bright and comes with a pretty unique UI, entirely controlled by the magnetic dial. Center mode is off, counter-clockwise once is medium, twice is low, and clockwise once (from center) is high (which at 3000 lumens, is really more of a turbo to me). Each mode indexes with a satisfying magnetic snap. The light has a quality machined feel to it, and has a bit of weight. It's larger than most EDC lights, but not as much as some other full-size throwers. The light can headstand, but not tailstand due to the lanyard cutout. The body does have a unique ergonomic shape with a taper towards the back. Most of the weight is in the head of the light. I'm not the biggest fan of this, since it means your natural grip position will cover the magnetic switch, requiring you to adjust your grip whenever you need to change modes. With that said, it feels fine in the hand when you're just holding it. The body is sealed to the head with double O-rings, which do a great job of keeping the water out. I can't say much about how well it'd hold up at depth, but it did pass the bathroom sink test with flying colors. One interesting thing to note: since the switch is magnetically operated, if you place a magnet near the switch, the light will turn on without turning the dial. I don't think this is too much of a negative, more of a quirk of the design, but something to keep in mind. My only real complaint with this light is that there is no low/moonlight mode. Even the 300 lumen "low" mode can be a bit too bright, and you still have to go past medium to get there. I like lights that give you quick access to a moonlight/ ultra low mode straight from off. At the very least, I would have preferred they swapped the medium/low mode on the UI selection so you can get straight to low from off. I took a few pics of this flashlight with a few other lights I use often. Compared to the others, this one beat them all in terms of brightness and clarity, with only the SP36 BLF on high coming close. In the group picture, from left to right: Wurkkos DL02, Sofirn SP36 BLF, a cheap zoomie, and a Wurkkos HD15R. All in all, a great flashlight from a solid flashlight company. Way brighter than you'll ever need, and would recommend to anyone looking for a waterproof light.

This dive light is awesome! It has incredible throw and is the brightest light I've ever had rated for diving (it even makes a great flashlight for use topside). The user interface is simple and intuitive. I have only tested it in shallow waters so far (bathtub pictured and shallow pool ~4 ft) but it has not had any issues and seems to be very well built to stay waterproof. Runtime seems to be very good; the 21700 battery packs a lot of power. I've added a picture of the DL02 between the HD01 and FC12 for size comparison. It would be good if the handle had a little more texture to grip (I'm planning to add some marine grip tape to mine), but the included wrist strap also works fine. I can't wait to use this on my next dive trip!

This is a good quality flashlight. Diving or just kicking around in the glovebox, I don't think you can go wrong. Just holding this thing in my hand I can tell it's well built. The finish is great and everything fits together exactly as it should. I noticed the light has a spring on each end of the battery tube which is a feature not seen in cheaper lights. This thing was definitely designed take some bumps and drops without issue. The switch is the killer feature on this light. It's hard to accidentally trigger, but still very easy to use with cold or gloved hands. Way better than a push button. For diving purposes, there is a double O ring seal on the battery tube. All other opening points seem to be permanently sealed to minimize points of failure. I only freedive so will not be taking this to it's full 300ft rated depth, but I have no doubt it can handle the pressure. The beam pattern is good for it's advertised purpose. There is a strong beam in the middle and lots of spill around the edges. It's not a floodlight or a spotlight, it's a perfect in-between.
