First Light.
BIGBLUE’s story begins in Hong Kong, where a young electronics engineer, fascinated by scuba diving books and the mysteries of the deep, built his career around precision and mission-critical reliability. When, in the mid-2000s, he was asked to create the most reliable dive light ever made, it became more than a technical challenge. It was the meeting point between lifelong curiosity and elite engineering skill. The result shaped the DNA of BIGBLUE: performance above all. Behind BIGBLUE Technologies is a team of divers, passionate engineers, and explorers who live and breathe the underwater world. Some came from precision electronics, others from the depths of technical diving. What unites them is a shared belief in tight tolerances and real-world reliability. This fusion of engineering mastery and dive experience created a company uniquely equipped to deliver exceptional underwater lighting systems.
BIGBLUE made its official debut at the 2007 DEMA Show in Orlando, bringing bold ideas and bright innovation from the very beginning. Those first lights didn’t just shine underwater; they stood out for their distinctive and purposeful design. That moment set the tone for everything that followed. Since then, BIGBLUE has continued to push forward, pioneering advancements in recreational and technical lighting, as well as high-output systems for underwater photography and video. Today, BIGBLUE stands as one of the few manufacturers introducing new ideas across every category: recreational, technical, professional, commercial, back-up, and rescue.
Through advanced design, efficient engineering, and remarkable value, BIGBLUE delivers some of the most capable LED systems in the world. Whether it is a compact recreational light or a full professional illumination system, there is a BIGBLUE light for every diver.
