The best at the moment is intova which is sold directly from M&A bugibba.
Ask for Jason sales and instead of the original price at about 60 euro, he will give it to you around 50euro.
There are 3 versions, the ideal for spearing is the one with the normal switch, the other with the switch at the back is suitable for diving.
Then there are two lenses to choose from. I would choose the one with spot which is superb.
The only drawback is that it does not tAKE NORMAL BATTERIES, but once you put in a set, they last very long. Us spearos, we do not leave it on for long. A friend of mine did not change his batteries for a year so!!!

The body of it is very robust aluminium. and the seal is double... so have a look...
Its the best option now.
It is also very compact....

Please note, replace the wrist strap, the original one which is intended for diving and is very strong. If the torch gets stuck between the rocks, you will be stuck with it in the bottom, without the possibility to cut the line by pulling. It happened to me, and beleive me, you wil panic. I was lucky to stay calm. But since then, I replaced all the straps with elastic ones.

hi baghira, i took your advice , i bought the intova you metioned, it was 65eur, but he gave me a good discount and i got for 52eur, its a small compact torch, but yet extremly powerful, i think the fish dies as soon as i switch it on them , no need to shoot them,  joking lollll. thks again.

Intova is a very good one and not expensive. I got an Omer Moonlight as well (for almost Lm75) 3 years ago, but after 1 year it did'nt function anymore.

Bought the new intova (tovatech) yesterday.....
