maty j 6 Posted October 22, 2007 Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 Frank sure you cant be tempted to part with that lightforce put the cash from that towards a lazerlite.. you know you want to... just fancy trying one out and giving it a strip and re-wire if its any good. or anyone else thats got a 170 handheld thats dead or very close to being....drop me a pm Quote Link to post Share on other sites
terriermad 4 Posted October 22, 2007 Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 i would go for the laserlite with 12v 14 a battery pack, then you can just take 1 12v 7a battery witch will last about 3 or 4 hours.............£125 thet are light as a feather too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
martin 332 Posted October 22, 2007 Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 Hi Kay,I am guessing that you want it to go with your air rifle,so,do you want to carry the lamp seperately or do you want to attatch it to the scope of the rifle?If you want it to fit to the scope then I would suggest the Deben tracer which is ultra light and is perfect for use with an air rifle,and you can get away with a much smaller battery.You don't ned the extra candle power and range that the lightforce etc. will give you,because you will be lamping relatively closely.I use a Deben Tracer Max for use with my air rifle and it is excellent,but,I do use the Lightforce 170 on my rimfire,which is also excellent............hope this has been of some help to you.............martin.

snoopdog 1,256 Posted October 22, 2007 Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 what you need to do is try a lightforce out ..they are the better beam without doubt.....a bit off modification you wont have any probs at all ...i will tell you what ill do i will fetch my light force down and show you how good the beam is ...we will have alook at those reds and you will be able to take some photos off them at night with no flash the beam is that good .....what do you think Quote Link to post Share on other sites
