ianh 83 Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 http://cgi.ebay.co.u...e=STRK:MEWNX:IT thats what you want mate unreal!! 200 metter you can see and it picks eyes up at 300+ meter!! well from my house to the top road is a mile and it lights all the road signs up! i was out for 6 hour with it and come back still had loads of charge , it has three settings strong weak and strobe!! just bought one hope there decent. got a cree led headtorch with the same led in it, it is bright and it does light up eyes at a fair distance but its the wrong colour, its harder to pick stuff out with it at range and i much prefer my clulite, the cree is good for small fields but following something while the dog chases it and you cant see the eyes is hard. just my experience, better with a lamp, i just use mine where i cant go walking about with a lamp great for poaching Quote Link to post
neilnbeanie 10 Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 What about those rechargable torches that they sell in Argos, the ones with a handle. They claim to be 2 million candle power, £20. Wouldn't that be any good? Don't do lamping myself, just a thought Quote Link to post
