Product Information
The Nocturnal Lights M700i is an ultra-compact underwater LED video light built on Nocturnal Lights' KIS (Keep it Simple) design philosophy, delivering 700 lumens on its high setting with an 80-degree beam and a depth rating of 100 meters (330 feet). Battery not included; the light runs on two CR123A lithium batteries or a compatible rechargeable lithium-ion battery from Nocturnal Lights.
Who it is for
The M700i is designed for underwater videographers and photographers who want a compact light that mounts directly onto a camera housing or an arm system. The wide 80-degree beam on high output is intended to add color and contrast to video footage, while the low power setting, reduced to 40% output, is suited to macro shooting or use as a focus light with a softer touch and extended burn time.
Key details
- 700 lumens on high with an 80-degree beam; low setting reduces output to 40% for extended burn time.
- Twist on/off mechanism that toggles between high and low power each time the light is switched on.
- Measures 5 and 1/4 inches long, 1 inch in diameter at the body, and 1 and 1/2 inches at the widest point of the light head.
- Aluminum light head acts as a heat sink, allowing topside use above water.
- Built-in controller monitors heat generated by the bulb and reduces power as needed.
- Double o-ring design between the light body and battery compartment supports a 100 meter (330 foot) depth rating.
- Runs on two CR123A batteries or a Nocturnal Lights rechargeable lithium-ion battery, each offering approximately 1.5 to 2 hours of usable light and up to 3.5 to 4 hours of burn time on low.
Compatibility and sizing
The M700i mounts directly onto a housing or arm using YS adapters or ball joint adapters, both of which are available for the light and cover most arms on the market. Additional mounting accessories are also available for the M700i.
