A fantastic dive torch that provides an excellent output, featuring a single switch for easy operation.
The Xtar D26 1600 is an updated version of the popular D26 dive torch, now with a 1600 lumen white output on maximum setting and utilising a Cree XHP35 HI D4 LED.
It can work to a depth of 100 metres and has an on land beam range of 432 metres. The beam angle of 55° brings a broader view than the D26 used to, enabling you to see more marine life and also making it safer for diving.
Powered by either one 18650 lithium-ion battery, one 18700 lithium-ion battery or one 26650 lithium-ion battery (included). The supplied battery tube needs to be removed from the battery compartment area if you wish to use a 26650 lithium-ion battery.
The magnetic switch controls the outputs, with one press turning the light on and each press thereafter cycling through the brightness settings as follows; turbo, high, mid and low. Hold the switch for 1.5 seconds to turn the torch off.
To prevent accidental activation the torch can be placed in lockout mode by holding the button down for 3 seconds until the green indicator flashes once. To exit the lockout mode simply press the button 3 times in quick succession and the light will come on.
An LED power indicator just above the power switch lets you know when your battery is running low. Above 25% power the light will be green, between 5%-25% the light will go red and below 5% the red light will flash to remind you to charge the battery.
A single 5200 mAh 26650 lithium-ion battery is supplied, and can be easily recharged in the provided Ant MC1 Plus single bay charger.
