For some purposes, underwater light gear need not be expensive. In our field tests, we used a globe-type, 250-watt light bulb in a watertight socket, weighted so it would sink (photo p. 38). A 300-watt portable generator. suspended from aloft or set on a cushion to minimize vibration, provided power. The light circuit was connected to the generator through a control panel containing fuses and a dimmer. As the wattage rating or number of lights increases
