Sorry, I should have proofed my previous message instead of just hitting the spell check. The light I am referring to is if fact omni-directional or multi directional. For those of us who are directionally challenged; i.e. we don't know where we are and take direction really badly, it can be seen from all directions - assuming that it's higher then your head. To answer some of the queries about the make. The light is manufactured by PrincetonTec and is called an eco flare. It's waterproof to 1000 feet. (Can divers dive that deep?) The white light will last up to 5 hours and the flashing red up to 50 hours. Power comes from two AAA batteries. I paid $23 Canadian or about $25 Australian. That's about $1.25 in real money (US). This was a spur of the moment purchase consequently I do not know the lights visibility range. You can likely see it at www.princetontec.com As usual I have no affiliation with this company or any other kayaking company. Although I often share my opinions here, if you want you can buy them. Contact me back channel for details. ;-) Gordin warner *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
