Phantom 631 Posted September 27, 2010 Report Share Posted September 27, 2010 Hi mate how far does the beam go with no filters on ? Cheers mike. It has no problem lighting up the entire cemetery or the paddock from on end to the other (and the far end is already illuminated by the street lights on the A63) so probably 100+ yards Phantom Quote Link to post
gurtwurz 793 Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 mines arrived now, good beam but i wish it would go either on or off, rather than cycling through the strobe, flashing sequence and dim settings. must be a way to sort it out? cheers, wurz Quote Link to post
Phantom 631 Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 You got the multifunction bulb with the torch? I thought they were "optional xtra's" mine is a straight on/off job. The strobe will be a pain when lamping, flash of white and their off Contact the seller and tell him you didn't realize it was multi-function and could you exchange the bulb for a single funtion one. If you do it nicely, you'll possibly wind up with a free bulb and still keep that one. Phantom Quote Link to post

gurtwurz 793 Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 raving rabbits!!! mind you, the military uses strobe lighting to good effect- i wonder if it'll disorientate bunnies? maybe with a stronger light it'd work, but not this un. i'll get on to the seller then!! cheers, wurz Quote Link to post
Millet 4,497 Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 (edited) You wont go far wrong with one of these, i bought one a while back and ive had quite a few rabbits using it with the lurcher,they take 4x AA batteries which are supplied when you buy one and they seem to last forever.

matt_hooks 188 Posted October 1, 2010 Report Share Posted October 1, 2010 The LED lenser torches are something else, unfortunately they're not exactly cheap! I have the P17, which was the best part of £60, I also have the M14, which seems to have disappeared from their product line but is still available on eBay for about the same. I also have one of their head torches, which is also great! The cheap eBay special lamps are ok, but you get so much more functionality with the lenser torches. The only disadvantage with the LED lenser stuff is that it doesn't have the option of a remote switch. Quote Link to post

davedavedave 69 Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 LED Lenser P7 is great. I used my new one last night lamping foxes with the wrapper from a Quality Street toffee as an amber filter and my mate dropped a fox stone dead with his .222 Bruno. We used a laser range finder afterwards and it was about 100m which shows how far it shines even with a filter so certain more than enough for air rifle work which is what I bought it for. Cheers, Dave. Quote Link to post
