Description
One device with 2 roles for wide and macro! The newly developed COB creates the perfect ‘center light distribution’ from a single light source for both wide and spot lighting. It is a versatile underwater light that offers optimal illumination in various scenarios, not just for imaging but also for wildlife observation or night diving.
01. Two roles in one – wide and macro!
The light source is COB (LED), known for its uniform light distribution. The unique design transforms the COB into a donut shape. The wide light source is positioned on the donut, and the spot light LEDs are placed at the center of the emitting surface (the donut hole). Whether for wide or spot lighting, the optical axis is always at the center of the light-emitting surface, ensuring optimal illumination.
02. Achieve the perfect ‘center light distribution’
The light source is COB (LED), known for its uniform light distribution. The unique design transforms the COB into a donut shape. The wide light source is positioned on the donut, and the spot light LEDs are placed at the center of the emitting surface (the donut hole). Whether for wide or spot lighting, the optical axis is always at the center of the light-emitting surface, ensuring optimal illumination.
| What is the new ‘COB’? |
|---|
| ‘COB’ is a type of LED. It stands for ‘Chip on board’, where multiple LED chips are directly placed on the board. This arrangement results in high luminance due to the concentrated LED chips. Additionally, the light emitted from a surface allows for even illumination across a large area. SEA&SEA is the first in Japan to implement ‘COB’ in a donut shape, reducing shadows in the center for uniform light distribution, even in wide lighting. |
03. Clear elimination of multi-shadowing
COB eliminates ‘multi-shadows’ in both wide and spot lighting, bringing out subjects clearly and sharply, making it an ideal light for imaging.
| What is multi-shadow? |
|---|
| Unique shadows produced by LED lighting, where multiple LED light-emitting elements create unnatural overlapping shadows different from those of sunlight. These shadows can obscure object outlines and reduce visibility. The single light source COB avoids producing multiple shadows. |
04. Convenient light intensity adjustment features
4-step light adjustment (25% increments)
Adjust the light intensity in 25% increments by pressing the power/light adjustment button while the light is on. Each press cycles through 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% settings, allowing for easy adjustment based on the situation. The % display provides clear visibility of the light intensity.
100-step light adjustment (1% increments)
Utilize the light intensity adjustment buttons on the left and right for precise 1% adjustments in the 0-100% range. The digital % display enables fine adjustments and enhances user confidence.
Memory function
Featuring a ‘memory function’ that restores the light to the same intensity as when turned off, ideal for video recording to maintain consistent lighting.
Equipped with a ‘flash sensor function’ that detects strobe light, automatically turning off the light and then reigniting it one second later. This feature ensures that the light does not interfere with captured images by reacting to the strobe emission. A spot light serves as a focus light, while the wide light aids in subject search and environmental checks without concerns of uneven exposure or color blending.
The optional “LX Red Filter” proves effective for observing light-sensitive organisms. When capturing images of shy creatures or ecological scenes, the red light can be used as a focus light without overwhelming the subject, while the light’s flash sensor prevents red color dominance in images.
06. Power variation by changing the light head!
The LX light series share a common body structure, allowing for interchangeability of light head parts. The LX-2400SW FS light head functions as a 2400lm light, while the LX-4000SW FS light head can deliver 4000 lm illumination when paired with the LX-1200SW FS. *Adjustments are necessary after light head replacement; refer to the manual for detailed instructions.

07. Dual battery charging options
Despite its compact size, the Li-ion battery boasts a sizable 3400 mAh capacity and supports two charging methods.
1. Direct charging:
The battery can be directly charged by connecting the provided rear charge plug to the charging connector terminal on the body’s back. This method eliminates the need to remove the battery, reducing the risk of water submersion and saving time and effort.
2 Removable charging:
The battery can be detached from the body and charged directly using a charger. With a compact battery size, having a spare allows continuous usage without worrying about power depletion. Additionally, the removable feature facilitates carrying the battery during air travel.
08. User-friendly panel display
A color LCD panel presents various functions prominently, including ‘light intensity’ and ‘remaining lighting time’, crucial factors underwater. Users can adjust light intensity while viewing the panel display for enhanced convenience.
Light intensity: Display of real-time light intensity in 1% increments.
Remaining lighting time: Real-time indication of available lighting minutes.
Included attachments cater to diverse needs, offering flexibility in usage.
Attachments like gun grip, YS base, Ball base, GoPro base, etc., can be affixed or exchanged based on requirements.
Not just for recreational diving, the light can be utilized for imaging by attaching it to a housing or arm system to expand lighting possibilities.
10. Compact body for easy handling
Featuring a spot light source at the center of the donut-shaped wide light source, the design minimizes wasted space on the light-emitting surfaces, resulting in a compact light head. With a palm-sized body and an underwater weight of just 163g, the ergonomic design ensures comfortable handling and ease of use.
11. Function display with mode icons
12. Four troubleshooting functions
Safety Mode:
Indicated by flashing battery indicator, it automatically reduces light intensity to 20% when the battery level is low. The display shows ‘10min’ and begins counting down.
High Temperature Protection Mode:
When the light head reaches 55°C (131°F) or higher during operation, ‘HOT’ is displayed, triggering protection mode to reduce light intensity to 20% maximum.
Blinking Mode:
Activates rapid blinking by simultaneously pressing the light intensity adjustment button (+) and power/light adjustment button for approximately 2 seconds. Useful for signaling to a buddy or providing night diving signals.
SOS Mode:
Serves as an emergency signal, activating by simultaneously pressing the light intensity adjustment button (-) and power/light adjustment button for about 2 seconds.
