Buy an Argolamp instead, much better product , more compact, user replaceable batteries 21700. Carry as much back up as you want for multi day trips, without being ripped off with expensive bespoke batteries. Depth tested to over 200m. No bespoke charger required. No brainer.

Argolamp - Starless River

Argolamps are made in Sardinia, by cavers and divers, for cavers and divers. A compact and fully waterproof lamp which uses twin 21700 lithium ion rechargeable batteries and has a variety of settings

I’ve had an argolamp for about a year and a half now but it can’t take the same punishment as a Scurion. The buttons are less intuitive and don’t play nice with silt. That said, it is much lighter and easier to wear around all day.
Last straw was on a solo Daren diving trip when the lamp got stuck on full spot and the lower button stopped working(!!). The prospect of caving out on 2 backup diving torches wasn’t very appealing

What, buy a Argolamp instead of selling his Scurion? Surly he'll then have 2 lamps he doesn't want

Fair enough, not had any issues with mine.So far......
Tend to keep my expensive dive torches eg scurion/argolamp for long duration, cleaner, multi-sump diving and use long duration back up torches for gmarly stuff.
