There is a very wide range of dive
torches available on the market; small LED rotating
bezel torches costing as little as £7 or £8
generally run using standard alkaline AA batteries
which are widely available. The more sophisticated
Umbilical Torches can cost up to £500 or more;
these torches have separate containers which house
a special battery, made up of a number of cells. They
can be either rechargeable NiCd or NiMh cells or primary
Lithium cells which can deliver the enough energy
to the high power torches. We have had a lot of experience
in building packs to fit into dive torches (as well
as dive computers). Because of this, and to make it
easier for you to purchase replacement batteries for
your device, we have created a list of previously
made packs. We are currently building up our database
to list all the makes and models of torches which
use each pack. If you find a pack that suits your
device but we do not have it listed then please let
us know and we will add it to our database.
If you cannot find a battery to
suit your device then please contact us and we will
be happy to help. In order for us to design a pack
for you quickly it would be helpful if you could provide
the following specifications:
• Voltage requirements,
• Capacity of the battery (mAh or Ah rating),
• Battery chemistry (NiMh, NiCd, Lithium…)
• Cells used, or Pack/Individual cell dimensions,
• Battery terminations,
• Make and model of your torch.
If you have access to a digital
camera then e-mailing us with a picture of the battery
would be good or physically sending us the pack will
enable us to in essence copy the pack so your new
pack will be a direct replacement.
You can either e-mail us on
or phone one of our team on 0191 427 4577, please
