I was informed that Ike Brigham, the founder of Ikelite, passed away last week via email, but I was waiting for confirmation that it was true before I posted it.
Ike was very active on Wetpixel and so when I saw that Eric posted it, it was enough confirmation for me.
Ikelite started out making lights, underwater compasses and finally the strobes, photo and video housings that they are now known for. Ike was known for amazing customer service, where he personally would get involved and solve a problem.
He had been battling an illness for years and he will be missed.
