The imitator not only copies the protected design, including the 3D trademark, but also the diver pictogram. The very low price is reflected in cheap materials (plastic instead of stainless steel), an inadequately dimensioned heat sink and inferior LEDs as well as poor functionality: despite 2 setting options for the light intensity, the result of the plagiarism is the same weak light in both positions.
