 fantastic light Aug 23, 2011
By Dallas J. Johnson
Red light option, check
Low beam white light, check
High Beam white light, check
Emergency strobe, check
Waterproof, check
Lightweight, check
Magnet mount, suprisingly useful
Suction cup mount, I tossed this but suspect some people really like it
In a pinch this would work as a watercraft 360 light even though the majority of the light projects forward or upward. I consider it a backup light when on my sailboat. Low on the water where kayaks are, it would likely be just fine and far better than using glow sticks.
The white high beam has a poor focus and is not much use past 100 feet or so, but it has a very nice even light spread within it's given range. The rotating switch isn't perfect, but I'm unable to think of a more efficient design myself.
The only thing this lacks is a light sheild to cover the high beam white light spreading out the side of the light forcing the user to cover it with their hands.
After testing one unit, I now plan to buy a half dozen and keep them mounted in my sailboat (on a metal bar using that magnet mount) for the entire crew to use as night lights and safety strobes.

 Perfect for night paddling Jun 04, 2010
By Carl R. Mousley
The light works perfectly for me.
I have a simple requirement. In winter I paddle with friends in the dusk and (in the middle of winter) in the dark. By law we're supposed to have an omni-directional white light on the back of the boat.
The light is simple to attach to the deck of the boat (I use strips of duct tape as a safety measure to make sure the sucker doesn't detach).
And it's simple to switch on and the power of the light is perfect for my application.
Works fine - great product.

 Very weak light and hard to turn on. Oct 18, 2009
By Fern Boggess
The white lights are so weak that I can hardly even read my watch by them. The red light is a lot brighter. The switch which turns between all the functions is very hard to position where the light will work. You have to keep turning it back and forth until the light finally stays on, then you put it in the holder and the light goes off. Very frustrating. Not the quality I expected for the price.
Mixed Initial Results, But Ended Favorably Oct 13, 2011
By Jill St Jacques
From the beginning, I really wanted the Hydrostar SOS lamp to be mine. I liked its design and the functions: a perfect rig for sea kayaking in squall conditions, or poor visibility scenarios. So I shelled out the forty bucks. A good deck lamp is worth it. But I must confide that the first Hydrostar lamp that the manufacturer sent me was defective. It would not turn off, even when placed in the "Off" position. "This will use too many batteries," I thought to myself. "Now I'm screwed." Having endured, at other times and with other unsatisfactory product purchases, the inevitable rigamarole that occurs when you want to return an item purchased on Amazon (downloading the return postage slip, negotiating the red tape, etc), I feared that I was stuck with it. But because I absolutely love their products, I called the manufacturer directly, and they sent me a new lamp well in advance of my expectations. Their customer service was superb, and made me feel even more allegiance to the brand than I did before. The new one works just perfectly, and I am pleased to add it to my emergency kit, where it can keep company with the other necessities that every remote location hunter should have: emergency whistle, first aid kit, cell phone, paddle float, matches, knife, tool kit and other lifesavers. Even though we got off to a rocky start, I would still heartily recommend this product to a friend.
What 360 Degree Light? Jul 02, 2011
By Rick Gauger
I did not buy this light, but I have opened a couple of them in the store. I can't find any sign that this device has a 360 degree white light. If it did, I would buy one to use with my kayak. It does have a 360 blinking light, but Coast Guard regulations say that blinking white lights are for emergencies only. If you show a blinking white light from a small craft at night, every boat that sees it is supposed to come to your aid. I don't really understand why the advertising for this product says it has this feature. If I'm wrong about this, I like to know.
