Today we’re diving into the Core 1000 light by Dive Lantern, an Australian brand making waves in the diving world with its innovative gear.
The Core 1000 is a compact, versatile dive light that’s perfect for divers and outdoor enthusiasts alike. Let’s break down its standout features:
• Powerful Beam: Delivers 1000 lumens in a tight 8-degree beam, ideal for signaling or exploring tight crevices underwater.
• Durable Design: Crafted from aluminum, it boasts a 100m depth rating, ensuring reliability in the toughest conditions.
• Compact Size: At just 133mm long and 32mm in diameter, it’s easy to pack or carry on every dive.
• Long-Lasting Battery: Offers 2 hours on high, 4 hours on medium, and up to 20 hours on low, powered by a rechargeable 18650 battery.
• USB-C Convenience: The game-changing USB-C charging makes it a breeze to power up anywhere, perfect for traveling divers or those who dive frequently.
Available in three bold colours—gunmetal grey, blue, and pink—the Core 1000 comes with a compact case, USB-C cable, wrist lanyard, and spare O-rings for added value.
What sets this light apart is its versatility. It’s not just for diving—keep it in your car, bag, or use it for camping or hiking. I recently used it on a night dive, and the tight beam was perfect for spotting marine life in crevices without disturbing the environment.
The Core 1000 is an excellent backup or primary light for any diver. It’s reliable, portable, and stylish. The new battery tech is a real game changer. The only problem is deciding which colour to go for?
