Warning: I spent $400 on a new dive light with a 'magnetic switch' and it flooded on the first job.

Was that a magnetic switch or a magnetic drain plug?

That magnetic switch design seems like a real weak spot.

Used to think magnetic switches were the coolest thing and way better than mechanical ones. Saw one of these fail on a video from a cave diver in MX last month, water just punched right through the seal. Changed my mind completely after that, saving up for a good mechanical twist head now instead.
