It's always nice to have more light during a dive, to explore hidden places and experience the wonderful colours, and there’s nothing worse than discovering that your torch is not working while underwater! 

That’s why we have prepared this list of tips to help you take care of your torch and be sure you're never left in the dark!

  • Rinse with Freshwater: After each dive, rinse your dive torch thoroughly with fresh water to remove saltwater, sand, and other debris. Pay attention to the switch and battery compartment to ensure they are clean and contaminant-free.
  • Dry Thoroughly: Allow your dive torch to air dry completely before storing it. Remove the batteries and ensure that the interior and battery compartment are dry. This prevents mould growth or corrosion, especially if you won't be using the torch for an extended period.
  • Store in a Cool, Dry Place: Store your dive torch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and excessive heat. Avoid storing it in a damp environment to prevent damage to the internal components and battery.
  • Lubricate O-Rings: Check the O-rings regularly for signs of wear or damage. Apply silicone grease to the O-rings to keep them in good condition. This helps maintain the torch's waterproof integrity and prevents leaks.
  • Battery Care: If your dive torch uses rechargeable batteries, charge them fully before storing the torch. If you won't be using the torch for an extended period, consider removing the batteries to prevent any potential leakage or corrosion.
  • Avoid Impact: Handle your dive torch with care, and avoid dropping it or subjecting it to rough handling. The impact can damage the internal components and affect the torch's performance and waterproof seals.
  • Check for Water Resistance: Periodically, perform a water resistance check by submerging the torch in a basin of water to verify that there are no leaks or issues with the waterproof seals. If any problems are detected, have the torch serviced by a qualified technician.
  • Avoid Direct Sunlight: Avoid leaving your dive torch exposed to direct sunlight for extended periods, as it can cause fading or damage to the materials and components.
