The Nightsea Flip3 filter is only effective when used with the Sola Nightsea, a blue LED light emitter.

The Sola NIGHTSEA, is the most advanced tool for fluorescence diving on the market. This is not a white light with a blue filter. The Sola NIGHTSEA takes full advantage of the high output efficiency of LEDs by using blue LEDs coupled with NIGHTSEA’s proprietary interference filter that fine tunes the output for maximum viewing effect,” says Dr. Charles Mazel, President of Nightsea, LLC, and principal research scientist who pioneers the study of fluorescence as well as the specialised equipment needed to do so.

The Sola Nightsea ships standard with a convenient hands-free wrist mount that is easily removed to substitute a ball mount, a localise video mount, or a pistol grip. This light also ships standard with a remote phosphor cap that turns blue light to white – perfect for orienting yourself, reading your gauges, or just seeing what exactly it is that is fluorescing. It is a whole different world down there when you use your blue LED light! Be the first of your dive group to experience it. For more details, please visit www.lightandmotion.com.
