I have gone thru 2 princeton tec lamps this season. They are not waterproof or even water resistant. One was a $30 light. I would not purchase these. I have sent them back for a replacement. One night standing way out on on a bar with waves pounding me and it decided to go on by itself on high-beam and would not shut off. I could not pop off the battery back and had to walk back to the beach where I buried the sucker. It was about 3 or 4 weeks old.

I need a good WATERPROOF light that has a switch (no twisting) red and white led as well. The ray-o-vac seems a bit bulky.
