Wow a through review of a couple affordable video lights, which I'm in the market to buy. Thank you very much 😊

[@danielvidal962]

wonderful video of review°!

[@watertrek360]

Thanks for the positive input.

[@lexvanlith8591]

I have also the BB14, they are great. I also had the same issue of which button is which function. So a put a tape on the button for the red/blue light AND at the back cover i wrote a white arrow so i can see from the back on which site the correct button is.. :-) Very nice lights !

[@Piet1709]

Top revieuw!!!!!!!!!

[@Mrveescuba]

i have 2 of the bb14 you call it,it is the exact same ligth without the red ring i call them amazon cheap ligths the serve me prety well just the one of 2 stays on,seems like some sort of contact inside the ligth,it stays on like 1% of the power you can see it only if the room is dark..anyways good review!!

[@olegigoshin]

How do you measure CRI, or do you blindly trust manufacturer characteristics? What about lights that do not list it? And why choose the 90 threshold?

[@watertrek360]

CRI is hard to measure unless in a lab. They compare against know light ranges with daylight as the benchmark. The company making the light has that. They may or may not want to publish it. So you are correct, there is some trust. However, if you have a light you trust that has a known CRI, say at 70 or 80. If you compare the 90+ to it, colors will be more closely aligned to what you would see in daylight.. For years most lights had CRI around 70 or so, until manufacturers realized it's importance underwater. They began developing ones with 80 or greater then 90+. Most good lights are at least 80+. Good ones are 90+ because it give the brightest most natural colors underwater without being overly yellow or warm. This video (attached) was shot completely using the Leton BB-14 lights.. kzbin.info/www/bejne/oHmUhqFmfMaKmtk

[@beluil]

Did you actually take them to 80meters?

[@watertrek360]

No the deepest I’ve taken them is 110 feet roughly 34 meters.

[@johnwilliamsscuba6487]

I bought a pair of cheap Amazon lights one still works the other leaks

[@watertrek360]

As mentioned in my review there are two threads on main body. With o rings. The back thread may be the one that leaks. Did the leak kill the light?

[@SGManhHa]

I just commented but I dont see it now....

[@watertrek360]

?? I do not see a comment?

[@SGManhHa]

@@watertrek360I think the post is disappear when I add the link. I just want to say thank for your review. I bought the similar in AliExpress but they post it 30k lumen which I doubt about it. Do you know how to measure the lumen?

[@watertrek360]

you would have to buy a Lux Meter. You can find them on Amazon, anywhere from $14.00 to $45. But you'd use them topside, not below to get general measure. That will get you close. @@SGManhHa

[@thalion100]

​@@SGManhHa I bought two of the "Turbo S1-S". Shop says 25000 lumen but manual says 13000. I think the manual is way closer to reality.

[@johnwilliamsscuba6487]

What is cri?
