bobby-b 1 Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 (edited) I bought a torch from china via ebay and its the dogs gonads. It cost me about £12 with postage + battery charger and adaptor. Its 800 lumes with a nice spot. Im not saying go out and replace your lamps (its good but not that good) but its ideal for taking the dogs out locally when I dont want to be carrying a big lamp about with me. Also police couldnt get funny saying i was going equipped as it is a torch lol. Lamped a rabbit with it last night a good 200 yard off. let my running dog off the lead with my Alsatian running behind yelping lol. I didnt expect him to get it just thought he could do with the exercise. Anyway 1 run 1 rabbit. Have a look at them they are ok and the charge lasts all night. Even when out with my main lamp I always take it as a spare. Trust me you can lamp with these with a beam that will put a spot on a rabbit 100s of yards away. I wont put the link up on here as I dont know if it is allowed but mail me for details. Im waiting to order 3 more 1 as a spare and 2 for friends. link http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rt=nc&nma=true&item=220712775571&si=Phu1g1zTv9gQbODhXvSKG0YK7lk%253D&viewitem=&sspagename=ADME%3AX%3ARTQ%3AUS%3A1123 Edited January 29, 2011 by bobby-b Quote Link to post

Tyla 3,179 Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 I've got an LED lenser, not as many lumens as yours and more money but very useful. Handy when you need to be discreet and just walking the dogs Quote Link to post
Shazza 52 Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 Can you send me the link for the Ebay one please, £12 it's worth a shot Quote Link to post
bobby-b 1 Posted January 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 Can you send me the link for the Ebay one please, £12 it's worth a shot Hi Shazza Iv sent it through to you hun Quote Link to post
bobby-b 1 Posted January 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 Wife bought me a 300 lumen mag light last year for my birthday and paid about £. for it with a scope mount. This one is better a lot cheaper and it cost me 7.00 a time for batteries for the other. Same scope mount fits both. Think this will be the way future lamps are going. Bright, light weight, not bulky and no big 6v or 12v bats to carry Quote Link to post
wuyang 513 Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 (edited) Led lensers are the dogs. A bloke on the rabbiting forum was talking about them so i looked into them and took the plunge. You want to be going for the M OR P14, they run on AA batteries, these are about 225 lumens (its not just the lumens that gives you a good beam.....quality of lens etc. This one doesn't even have a reflector...really strange. Its not £12 though these cost between £50 to £65. i can honestly sa its better than my long gone blue eye 200,000. I couldn't believe how good it was. Its a really well built bit of kit, not cheaply made. Any heres a link.....you may have to convert to english at the top of the page...made in germany. http://www.zweibrueder.com/ENG/produkte/html_highperformance/html_Mserie/m14.php?id=m14.
