Description

Bigblue’s own tagline for the VTL9000PB says it best: red, white, blue, wide and tight, and fluoro. This rechargeable dual-beam light is built for technical diving and underwater video, and it covers almost every lighting job in one head.

The wide beam puts out 9000 lumens of even white light across 120°, plenty to fill the frame for video. Switch to the 6° narrow beam for 1300 lumens with a focused hotspot that keeps you seeing in low-visibility conditions. Six high-intensity red LEDs give 500 lumens of red for low-impact lighting. Eight blue LEDs give 45, 90 or 180 lumens of blue for fluoro dives, and Bigblue includes a yellow filter and a yellow plate.

White light has three levels: 2250, 4500 and 9000 lumens. Burn time is 3 hours on the highest level, 6 hours on the middle and 12 hours on the lowest. Power comes from a self-contained BATCELL18650X4 Li-ion rechargeable pack, and the push-button switch has a battery indicator.

The body is anti-corrosive anodized aluminum with tempered optical glass, tested to 100 m. It weighs 550 g in air and ships with a soft Goodman glove, a 1-inch ball joint, a lanyard and a 7L dry bag.
