RF Dragon D1800 - anyone used one?

[Mattrees]

I'm interested in hearing from anyone who subjects a RF Dragon D1800 to hard caving. How is it holding up to rough use, long grovelly trips in wet caves or weekly digging?

Overall impressions? Thanks.

Another good place to ask would be on Aditnow, they have a RF lamp forum on there too

I have a Dragon 1800 and very pleased with it. It is really good value and has stood up well to some abuse.
The only  problem I would mention is the  heavy duty connector and cable between  the lamp and battery is a bit stiff and does not encourage unplugging before throwing into a kit sack. If the switch gets knocked on by throwing the kit bag around then the lamp can get very very hot if it is covered by other kit.
