This video is a full underwater field review produced by the Want To Sea The World community, focusing on the LetonPower Shark CX flagship dive video light.
The review is conducted entirely in a real underwater environment, where the Shark CX is directly compared with the Asafee DRC01 dive video light. The main purpose of the video is to evaluate whether upgrading to the Shark CX is justified at a retail price of approximately USD $399, based on real-world underwater performance rather than specifications alone.
