Already presented in all its very interesting technical details in our X-Rays article, the Mares EOS Pro torch shows also great performance and wins the Best Choice 2024 by Apneapassion. Another novelty of 2024, the H.Dessault Sirio torch is another excellent new torch on the market, which convinces for quality and performance united to a more affordable price than the Mares EOS Pro, and wins the Best Value 2024 by Apneapassion. The Cressi Lumia, winner of the Best Choice 2023, confirms its qualities and has set the standards for the new torches on the market, but would need a rechargeable solution.
Mares EOS Pro winner of the Best Choice 2024
The strong elements which make the Mares EOS Pro the best spearfishing torch on the market are: rechargeable battery with type-C plug and charge indicator led, powerful and narrow beam, anatomical design, perceivable switch, quality materials and semirigid adjustable elastic lace. All these elements make the Mares EOS Pro practically perfect, with no defects, and no additional elements to suggest for an improvement. The duration of the battery is incredibly high, which makes the use of this rechargeable torch very comfortable, without the risk of having to charge it too often. The best torch on the market has indeed a price determined by all its quality, which is around 100€.
H.Dessault Sirio torch is Best Value 2024
The new H.Dessault Sirio puts together a lot of technology. Rechargeable and completely sealed, this new torch has no risk of flooding, just like the Salvimar Galaktica, finalist of the Best Choice 2023, but with some limits in terms of grip. Differently, the H.Dessault Sirio torch has a very good grip with no risk of the torch slipping from the hand. The light beam is extremely powerful, but slightly less narrow than the Mares. The switch is very well perceivable, and is a sliding solution. It is also complete with a clip to use when storing the torch, to avoid it to turn on accidentally.
The recharging is possible only with a dedicated magnetic cable, which is great as it gives the possibility to have a super safe water tight torch, but at the same time without the specific cable you cannot charge the Sirio. So take care! The lace is just the same one of the Mares EOS Pro torch, a good quality semi-rigid adjustable and elastic. Thanks to it, inserting the hand in the right way, just as for the Mares EOS Pro, the torch will always have the switch on the side of the thumb. The H.Dessault Sirio torch wins the Best Value 2024 thanks to all these great qualities united with a price suggested to the public which will be indicatively 80 €. The sales will start at the end of 2024.
Cressi Lumia
Not much more to say about the Cressi Lumia torch, winner of the Best Choice 2023 by Apneapassion. One of the best, if not the best, beams on the market, definitely the best switch, the Cressi Lumia only needs some update with a rechargeable solution.
