  1. Thanks FD. I ain' got a vice mate but I will know a man who has. I will post a pic up of it as soon as I can just to be sure. Sounds like you have the right picture in your mind Was out with the pup earlier doing a bit of exploring. Met a lad I have bumped into a few times now in the early hours. He had his young hawk with him and his battery was flat, so I gave him ago of the K50 and what a sight with the hawk flying down the beam. The hawk missed it's prey as the rabbit looked like it entered a hole. The hawk landed in a tree about 400 yards away and we could see it clearly. Gave a few shak

  3. The warrenty will cover any faults in the lamp mate, drop them an email, quote your name and address and they will sort it out for you! Cheers FD. If I can get it anywhere near back to shape and put put the rubber ring back on, that would do me as it's working perfectly now. Just thinking if I was to drop it into water, or if water was to start seaping in through the hand held part of the tourch then It might cause problems. I reckon the fault may not be in the lamp FD, I reckon I may not of had it tight enough. With the rubber gone it is okay, but if I could get it back to shape and
  4. Took mine out about 5 days ago and and all my settings where going into strobe mode. Thought it might of been due to not being charge enough even though the green light was on when I took it off charge. So I gets home left it on charge overnight, charger was green. Took it out again and it was okay for a while then started going onto strobe in different settings after a between 1-2 seconds. Tried tightening the tourch, taking batteries out again then replacing. None of these worked... So I gets home and was thinking to myself, this is going to have to be fixed, I haven't dropped it or anyt
  5. To be fair mate, we lost her mother at the age of 52 a couple of months back to a C,O,P,D. attack. Wasnt nice at all. The speed of events was unreal... Only upside to it was it wasnt a drawn out death like cancer. Sorry to hear that bob. I do know how serious it can be. I know a few people who have it. My mother is tough as they come and very independant, but I know that could change at anytime. If it turns out nothing fishy. Then I will be the 1st to appologise. If you look at an earler post I was sympathetic. I havent had a problem with my gmail account, I use it daily
  6. From a coma to C.O.P.D.?? Wow your body and email sound so alike? With all due respect fella something smells a bit fishy here. My mother suffers with C.O.P.D. and she is out shopping at the moment. No stopping her.
  7. Look at her earlier posts and it's her who criticised someone else about punctuality etc. Takes a certain type to do that, then blames it on whatever keyboard setting she got. I just let her know hers is not up to scratch either. So I think you need to tell her that it's a forum not a school. Not a good idea coming on here thinking she is a teacher and expecting people to sign petitions.
  8. Look back at your own spelling and grammer before you point the finger at anyone else on theirs and welcome to THL. Plenty of different opinions on here some you might not like. Situation with your dogs could of been worse. I know someone who had there dog taken and found it with another owner. They went through the courts and had to pay for 3 years worth of food, vet bills etc to get it back.
  9. gizz a kiss then Join the line snapper lad she got plenty of waiting wanna be husbands. You might get a invite to the anti x swingers end of season bash.
  10. You said many men would love to be your Husband? So I said Don't think your husband will be to pleased hope none are his mates
  11. Don't think your husband will be to pleased hope none are his mates
  12. Cheers mate. Looks like a blue one then lol. Looks like it should fit the tourch in, can't moan for £12.99 free postage
  13. People been outside supermarkets doing the same thing, around these ways. Hope you get them back.
  14. Dont know if I got this from this post but here is a link to the 1850 batteries and performance http://www.torchythebatteryboy.com/p/18650-batteries-chargers.html?m=1 Don't know how accurate it is though. There is some dodgy ones about though by the looks of it. Sure FD has done his homework on the ones he has mentioned though.
  15. Stop bloody thinkin!!! if km honest mate i dont think so..... If you only knew how many emails were sent to and fro you'd agree with me! Plus its a hell of alot of responsibility holding sombodys money while they wait for delivery from sombody else...... It would be alot simpler this time round i havd to admit because i think we have covered all the possibilities at this stage! if i had a group of 10 that all could do the bank transfer together then i would consider it again..... But for the minute im taking a break from them!!!! Lol, Haha I can imagine mate Iam just glad I took the plunge.
  16. Anyone waiting wont be dissapointed with the torch, if its any consolation. Just look at it this way, the ground is solid anyway clear skys and a big moon. So dont think anyone is missing using k50. Fox digger bet you cant wait for the last k50's to arrive and put yer feet up. You have given us a quality service. But ive been thinking......would you do it again lol???????
  17. Can anyone reccomend any reliable waterproof, breathable jackets that would fit the K50 tourch in comfortably? I lost my army gortex one a couple of weeks ago which was a pain in the arse anyway because it had no pockets. The K50 tourch is around 9" long and about 12" in width. And no shit jokes about the size of your one eyed trouser snakes or the wife/girlfriend etc.
  18. Sickner that gaf, hope your pup makes a full/quick recovery.
  19. Have you got kids mate? Because the bellend who has off loaded your pup so early hasn't given it time to socialise with it's litter mates properly.The pup will probably bite fook out the kids hands etc with them needles of teeth it's got. Would of learnt bite restriction with litter mates. Atb with your pup, sounds like it well be better off with you.
  20. I would agree with the above. Brilliant for watching the dogs and quarry's every twist and turn. Seemed to have more than the usual bunnys running right at me with the k50 last night. Might of just been a coincidence, also seemed to keep the bunnys startled for longer in the one place before making it's run for freedom. That is a problem trying to asses something over one night. We all know how rabbits will act differently on any given night. I would imagine it will take a while under all different conditions to get a true reading of how rabbits react to the white beam.

  21. marks out of ten roy what would you say??I agree with the strobe being after the the stand-by is a bit of a downside . Took my brain a couple of seconds to think last night about where the strobe was and by that time I fooked a good run up bacause I put it on stand-by. We live and learn though ay. All the other setting make up for it though. I think it is easy to use with one hand and using your index finger to press button on off, or you can just push it in without it clicking for a quick scan. Once you have clicked the on/off button it is easy to take finger off button and manouver it into

  23. Thought you would get it Roybo, fast isn't it from Hong Kong to your doorstep. Now you will be waiting for it to go dark lol. I had mine out for about 4 hours last nigh not fully charged and tourch never dimmed or anything. How many more people waiting for theres? Only way any quarry got out of view of the lamp/tourch was over hills. was yours already charged mate this one must have Been totally flatHas it the light come on roybo? Have you put the batt compartment in the right way, and screwed the head back on tightly. Wasn't fully charged, couldn't say how much it was charged.Redchar
  24. I wouldn't want it any tighter tbh, its nice to be able to see the dogs every move in the spill while still having the quarry in the hot spot, nothing worse than a real tight beam and lamping somthing and seeing nothing untill the dog pulls in enough to strike.
