PRO-V8 LED VIDEO LITE
Ikelite Pro-V8 LED Video Lite

Light is the most important contribution to underwater video. The Ikelite Pro-V8 LED is the easiest and most affordable way to add valuable light to your system. Three 5-watt LEDs are arranged behind a special optical lens to give an exceptionally even 45° beam completely free of hot spots. The color temperature is daylight balanced for warm, beautiful tones with or without color filter. Light output is the same over its entire 10 hour burn time, providing more than enough light for an entire week of diving from one set of 8 "C" cell alkaline or NiMH batteries. Depth rated to 300ft (90m)

A lightweight and flexible pop-bead arm provides versatility in aiming without adding bulk. The included flex mount ball attaches to the top of any Ikelite standard video housing handle without tools. Requires the Ikelite # 9523.51 Video Compact Tray (sold separately) for compact housings. For more light, add a second Pro-V8 LED with the # 9523.52 Dual Tray. Additional pop beads can also be purchased in 4-piece sticks to extend the arm.
