The Kraken Hydra 10000 WRGBU is the ultimate underwater video light—10,000 lumens of power, high CRI 90 color accuracy, and a new push-button + dial control that makes underwater use effortless. With WRGBU + UV modes, a wide 120° beam, and up to 60 minutes of runtime, it’s the perfect all-around dive light.

Hydra 10000 WRGBU – Professional Underwater Video Flood Light
10,000 lumens continuous output • 120° soft flood beam • CRI ~90 • Depth rated to 100 m

When you need even coverage, accurate color, and fast, usable controls on every dive, the Hydra 10000 delivers. Designed and manufactured by Kraken Sports, this compact flood light gives photographers and videographers the brightness and flexibility they need for reef panoramas, macro work, and fluorescence night dives.

Key Features

• Wide, even flood: 120° beam eliminates hotspots for smooth wide-angle illumination.
• Consistent, sustained output: The 10,000 lumen spec is the working output — what the light produces through a full dive, not a peak it hits for the first few minutes before stepping down. We engineer the battery and drive circuit to maintain consistent brightness from start to finish, because your exposure shouldn’t change mid-shot.
• WRGBU + UV modes: White, Red, Green, Blue, UV & RGB — use UV to reveal coral fluorescence.
• Burst mode — fiber-optic triggered: Sync via fiber optic cable to your camera’s built-in flash and the light fires a quick, bright pulse timed to your shutter. Recycle is fast. The difference from a dedicated strobe isn’t recycle speed — it’s flash duration. A xenon strobe fires in microseconds, which is what actually freezes motion. Burst mode fires longer than that, so very fast-moving subjects won’t be frozen as sharply. For macro work on slower subjects — nudibranchs, cleaning stations, coral detail — it works well and gives you a meaningful brightness spike over continuous light alone.
• CRI ~90: Colors look the way they actually are — reds, oranges, and skin tones reproduce faithfully instead of washing out to the greenish cast common with lower-CRI LEDs. If you’ve ever had to color-correct underwater footage for hours, you know exactly why this matters.
• Intuitive controls: Push-button + dial interface for quick adjustments, even with gloves.
• Fast USB-C charging: USB-C PD recharge keeps you on the water — ~3 hours to full charge.
