purchased this product6 dives and already dead! Unreliable product!
After 6 dives it doesn't turn off anymore.
I took it apart thinking that it was just the button that was defective... and I discover that the circuit is oxidized and rusted by salt water, so it has taken the water!
As an experienced diver and used to underwater photo equipment, I respected all the instructions: max -30m, rinsing with clear water after each dive and immediate drying. Check the seal before each dive and when changing the battery!
Rather disappointed by my purchase...Pro
- Awards
- Good lighting for day/night macro
- GoPro 4 compatible battery
Contra
- Not waterproof as stated

purchased this productOk for the price but not usable for recordings
A bit too dark for diving. The light cone is also not very good for a wide-angle lens, which is built into the Go Pro. Shooting is certainly better than without it, but only for very close photos and videos. As soon as you want to shoot something at a distance of 2 metres or more, the light no longer has any influence.
My recommendation is to spend a little more money and buy a decent torch for underwater use.Pro
- Good torch for the price
Contra
- Not suitable for photography and video recording

purchased this productAs long as you only use one flare, it's all good.
Bought everything as shown in picture 3 and found 1 slider and 2-3 small screws missing. Digitec does not sell these things, so now I have to contact Go Pole.
Great! Going on holiday tomorrow!Pro
- Light and compact
Contra
- missing accessories that should actually be included.
- The 2 mounting plate bends too tightly. Flare a bit slanted (not parallel to Go Pro).
- would have been best to make a plate with 3 screw-on options.
- Batteries from Flare do not fit in Go Pro 7.
