Hey divers, Thomas here! I'm back with another exciting find from the DEMA Show 2023 – the OrcaTorch D710. OrcaTorch has been a favorite among divers for its reliable and high-quality torches, and their latest updates to the D710 series are no exception. Let's explore what's new and exciting about these torches.

OrcaTorch D710: New Colors and Features

The OrcaTorch D710 is now available in new colors: OD Green, red, and blue. These options add a personal touch to your diving gear. But the real game-changer is the introduction of the D710 DC (Direct Charge) and a prototype with an adjustable focus beam. Here's a breakdown:

  1. D710 DC – Direct Charge: This version features a USB-C port for charging the battery inside the torch, maintaining the same waterproofing standards. It also includes an extra O-ring for enhanced protection.
  2. User Replaceable Batteries: Despite the new charging feature, you can still replace the batteries, offering flexibility for longer dives.
  3. Adjustable Focus Beam Prototype: A new prototype allows you to switch between a tight laser beam focus and a wide, soft light – perfect for various underwater lighting needs, from videography to cave exploration.

Design and Usability

The OrcaTorch D710 series maintains its reputation for robust and user-friendly design. The new models continue to offer:

  • High Waterproof Quality: Ensuring reliability under various diving conditions.
  • Versatile Lighting Options: Catering to different underwater activities, whether it's photography, videography, or exploration.
  • Personalized Color Choices: Allowing divers to match their torch with their gear or personal style.

Conclusion

The OrcaTorch D710 series, with its new colors, direct charging option, and adjustable focus beam, is a significant leap forward in dive torch technology. These features not only enhance the functionality of the torch but also add a level of convenience and personalization that divers will appreciate.
