Scubapro adds new models to dive light range
The new NOVA 850 series replaces the previous 720 series and are characterized by even more lumens and outstanding brightness.
In addition, the range is complemented by the new compact but strong NOVA 250.
The Nova 850 delivers intense illumination, ideal for lighting up the dark spaces and bringing out the vibrant color on night dives as well as day dives. It is machined from heavy-duty aluminium so is both lightweight and built to last. It’s also easy to use. A 50% mode allows to increase burn time if full power is not necessary.
For divers looking to brighten their dives, the Nova 850 is the perfect choice.
The NOVA 850 Series
- Rugged matte black, blue accents aluminium body offers a stealthy “tech” look while providing lightweight long-term durability.
- Equipped with a Cree XPL LED.
- 850 lumen illumination / 15,000 lux @1m.
- Double O-ring seals ensure watertight integrity.
- Push-button switch on the end of the light is easy to activate, even when wearing gloves.

May the 4th be with you!
Oyster Diving have recently been given exclusive access to offer scuba diving courses and fun dives at Mercers Lake, a beautiful lake near M25/Gatwick in the UK.
Oyster have just launched their own dive boat ‘The Blue Pear’ to explore various parts of the lake. Divers can glide around the underwater woodland, see lots of fish and decent visibility. Out of the water divers set up in the purpose built kitting up area, unwind in a warm shower, and off-gas in the café & licensed bar.
To celebrate the start of the summer season, AquaSports and Oyster Diving have teamed up to host a Star Wars-themed open day on the 4th May.
Guests will be able to enjoy discounted tasters of various watersports including Stand Up Paddleboarding (SUP), Canoeing and Sailing. Oyster Diving will be joined by Apeks and possibly other dive manufacturers to display their latest products. Demo gear will be available for qualified divers and Oyster’s sales support team will be on hand for customers with any questions.
Divers wishing to get in the water will need to book in via Oyster Diving’s website where you can also choose to hire any equipment. Non-divers and well behaved dogs are very welcome!
As well as the watersports there will also be music, food and a licensed bar. The fun starts at 10am and finishes around 4.30pm.
Please come along, wear your finest Stormtrooper or Princess Leia outfit and enjoy the fun!
