lurcherchavvy 3 Posted November 15, 2007 Report Share Posted November 15, 2007 ive got one and it comes with a cigarette lighter connection with it all you have to do is cut it out i aint done mine yet but have seen quite a few and theyve had no problems with it im rewiring mine this weekend because the wiring pulls out sometimes when you go over fences or hedges or you can keep it without doing anything with it i have for 2 years but ive had enough with it keep coming unwired you get it with both the lamps anyway all the best lc Quote Link to post Share on other sites
thurso jack 3 Posted November 15, 2007 Report Share Posted November 15, 2007 240 blitz they will shine for miles, apart from the wiring there very good, but i can asure you if you dont rewire them they will go capoot right at the worst time possible!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

maty j 6 Posted November 15, 2007 Report Share Posted November 15, 2007 they have just brought a striker out instead of the 170its 180 and they have supposed to of fixed the wiring and other faults on them but i couldnt tell you how they are because i havent used one or know any one that has.. jay there the nite stalker lamps, have a look on target sports website. only a few differences visualy from the lightforce but as jay said the wiring's supose to be better in them plus there cheaper than lightforce. just waiting for mine to arrive now.

CHUCKY 0 Posted November 15, 2007 Report Share Posted November 15, 2007 the wiring is a bollox mate but i have put a cable tie around the wire and on to the handle so there is no strain pulling on it that done the job for me. and as above take the lighter plug off Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SNAP SHOT 194 Posted November 15, 2007 Report Share Posted November 15, 2007 Find the lightforce range good, wiring can be a problem, but this is easily overcome for the quality of the beam it's a winner i find the blitz a little strong for foxing, so would recommend the lance or striker, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest rio Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 me and my lamping partner went to get a new lamp today we was spoilt for choice so got the blitz with the dimmer and the new night stalker lamp will let you know what i think after tonight Quote Link to post Share on other sites
