Information on the Cressi Astra Torch

The Cressi Astra Torch is a modern and powerful explorer's torch, which comes with normal torch batteries or rechargeable batteries. The torch battery version is powered by 5, 1.5V "D" alkaline torch batteries and is already set up for transformation into the rechargeable version as it comes with a removable battery pack with charger plug. All you need to do in order to change from one to the other is replace the bulb and buy a kit of 5 Ni-Cd, 1.2V - 5A/h cell packs plus battery charger. So, the user can choose between the extremely long burn time and practicality of the battery model and the stronger light from the rechargeable model.

Features

  • Can be bought as a rechargeable torch or as a non-rechargeable torch
  • Non-rechargeable torch can be converted to a rechargeable torch by buying bulb, battery kit and battery charger.
  • Adjustable beam uses a brand-new bulb centering system that eliminates any shadows.
  • The faceted dish provides a very strong, concentrated cone of light that will penetrate deeply even in murky water.
  • The reverse on/off switch is easy to use with right or left hand and comes with double o-ring seals, as does the lens cover.
  • The pentagonal shape means the torch sits steadily on a flat surface.

Advice on Apnea Freediving

Apnea diving or Freediving as its more commonly known is the sport of breath holding. This small advice section covers the questions we generally get asked by people who are considering taking up freediving.

To view more information on freediving view our full Freediving Advice Page.

Why do I need a specific freediving mask?
Freediving masks are of a much lower volume than a general masks, this makes it much easier to equalise. The lenses should also be clear allowing your buddy to see your eyes.

Why do I need specific freediving fins?
Freediving fins are much longer than normal snorkelling fins, this allows you dive deeper with less effort.

Why do I need a specific freediving snorkel?
Freediving snorksl are much more basic than general snorkels with no purge valve or flexible section. This reduces water drag allowing you to move through the water with less resistance.
