RF Dragon D1800 - anyone used one?

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.
 
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.
