What the flashlight mode is for:

You’ll see the low-yield incandescent light on other ACR strobes too. If you ever need to be resuced from the water, the strobe will summon and guide help from a considerable distance – but when the rescuers get close, it’s blinding (bad for helicopter pilots!). When help arrives you should switch from strobe to flashlight so you’re still visible, but not making things hard by dazzling the people trying to help you.

Thanks for the great review – very helpful! I was commenting on the need for every diver to carry a strobe on my blog just the other day – we had a dive incident that was greatly complicated by a lack of some equipment (including a strobe). You can read about it here: http://fit2dive.blogspot.com/2011/09/diver-unconscious-no-reg.html

Thanks again

Nice review. At $32 a clip the ACR Electronics Firefly Plus is a steal. It is useful to learn the light apparently handles the depths pretty okay
