Ammonite System

Ammonite System build modular technical dive lighting: primary canister heads and umbilical kits, handheld and backup lights, Stingray video sets, canister batteries and chargers, Goodman handles, mounts and cables. Because the parts are sold separately you can build or extend a setup piece by piece. What goes with what depends on the head, the battery and your rigging, so check the manufacturer specification or ask us.

    Who Ammonite System are

    Ammonite System are a European manufacturer of technical dive lighting. Their lights are used by technical, cave, wreck and cold-water divers, and are built around a modular canister-and-head arrangement rather than sealed all-in-one units.

    The primary and backup lights are designed for cold, low-visibility inland water and for overhead and expedition diving. Housings are machined metal and the canister batteries are electronically managed. Output and burn time vary considerably between heads and batteries, so check the manufacturer specification for the combination you are considering.

    Ammonite's modular design philosophy allows divers to tailor their lighting systems to suit their configuration, whether diving sidemount, backmount or CCR. Features such as Goodman handles, canister battery systems, and clean cable routing suit divers who want a streamlined, functional setup.

    Here at Dive Rutland we stock Ammonite because the modular approach suits the diving we do and teach: parts you can replace, extend and service rather than a sealed unit you send away. If you are progressing into technical training, come and talk to us about how to put a setup together.

    Building a setup

    Because the parts are sold separately, an Ammonite light is a set of decisions rather than a single purchase: which head, which battery, which cable, and how the whole thing attaches to the rig you already dive. Compatibility depends on that combination and on whether you are diving backmount, sidemount or CCR. Check the manufacturer specification for the parts you are pairing, and if you would rather have it confirmed before you order, tell us what you are diving and we will go through it with you.
