mozza_morallez 0 Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 (edited) Im currently using a decent torch mounted on my scope, it gives out a good amount of light but does not concentrate the light to one area so much. Anyone got any advice on what i should replace it with? Was thinking something lightweight with a 100m beam lenght. Didnt wanna spend more than £90. What have people got that works for them? Thanks in advance. Edited January 27, 2011 by mozza_morallez Quote Link to post
andyfr1968 772 Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 I'm still stuck in the stone age, mate, I can't stand gun mounted lamps with wires and crap hanging off my rifle I use a Led Lenser head torch and it does all I could ask. I bet I'm the only one on here who still uses one though!! Cheers. Quote Link to post

aaronpigeonplucker 32 Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 a nice cheap lamp is the deben tracer atom. its very light and small but will give you enough illumination to take rabbits out to 45m. the dimmer will be a little bit extra money, but if your in a situation where you need to tone down the lamp (ferals, rats) then just putting on the red filter wil be enough.

secretagentmole 1,701 Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 (edited) Getting a Cree 120 lumens torch from Tescos for my birthday (nice mum), 14 hours power from 2 AAs, focusable beam and dimmer, £25 and mother gets the club card points... Has a dimmer that takes beam from 100-10%, focusing, seems a good lamp to me, cheap to run as well... Have a link on me... Every little helps! My link is so illuminating Edited February 3, 2011 by secretagentmole Quote Link to post
Sweeney-Todd 208 Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 Hi Mozza. The Led Lenser gun kit is worth a look, one small tail wire to opperate the pressure switch. Hell of a torch, you will need to make up a filter though, worth the trouble http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00499RL50/ref=asc_df_B00499RL501932868?smid=A19HWGW7F118QA&tag=dealtimecouk-sports-mp-delta-21&linkCode=asn&creative=22218&creativeASIN=B00499RL50 Good luck with your choice. ATB. Bill. Quote Link to post

zini 1,939 Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 I use a Deben Tracer Max Pro with red filter and dimmer switch. It works for me and I shot quite a few with it about 4 nights ago with Andy. Against common belief, you actually need a low powered lamp for better results when lamping not a bright lamp. The trick is to spot the rabbit on half power, turn the dimmer to off so there is no light then turn it up just enough to see the cross hairs and the rabbits head. Do it this way and the rabbit will sit for you 99% of the time. Si. Quote Link to post
