If you're looking for a waterproof light that you can dunk, check out the lights from Princeton Tec. Most of them can be used as dive lights. The Impact and Torrent models are pretty small and lightweight. Relatively inexpensive also. Good burn time if you get the LED model. Match it with surgical tubing to hang around your neck.

I just got a new Princeton Tec quad tactical headlamp and I like it alot. Waterproof and solid feeling. Interchangeable lenses for red,green or blue light output. 3 settings for up to 45 lumens of output. Flash mode. Only thing is the button isn't as easy to access as my UK vizion. Hope that helps.

If you want a flashlight, find a waterproof one, Princeton Tec or Pelican, tape some surgical tubing to it to hang it round your neck and a snorkel tube mouthpiece to the end of it so you can hold it in your mouth for hands free mode.
