Gaz_1989 9,539 Posted August 28, 2016 Report Share Posted August 28, 2016 Alright lads, Tommy27 has just been and picked me up to take these lamps for a shine over the football field. I've done a video. It's just loading to YouTube now so will probably be about 15 minutes. I was using my iPhone and the lamps go further than the phone. We could see the trees at the other end of the field quite easily with all 3 lamps by eye but these aren't picked up with the phone. It was slightly better with the flash on the phone for some reason but still wasn't brilliant. But with regards to brightness and spread on the beam you can get an idea of how they compare. Me and Tommmy discussed it and reckon you could see a minimum of 400m with the 150 and 120 but the DL100 lost its useable light at about 300m due to the spread. Conversely the 150 was so tight it would probably be unusable beyond 400m. The 120 is the best of the lot (and will be my lamp of choice this winter) if you can live with the 1 hour battery life. But as said in other threads I'm toying with fitting a larger battery to mine. I've not seen the 170 that roybo has got, but if that's brighter and similar spread to the 120 it would be an impressive lamp for the lads who aren't bothered about going cordless. Hope this helps some of you out. Gaz 2 Quote Link to post
Tommmy27 94 Posted August 28, 2016 Report Share Posted August 28, 2016 After seeing the 3 lamps tonight I'll be looking to get a 120 for this season. Quote Link to post

Might look into one an use the 100 for spotting I have that already here just the glare is on the bigger side but no wires is bliss just needs a wee bit for a lanyard on to hold for u 2 Quote Link to post

I aren't sure about red filters. You would have to ask D. Lloyd. In my experience with the LEDs they don't respond to red filters as well as the halogens do. You lose a lot of the power.

Moja 111 Posted August 29, 2016 Report Share Posted August 29, 2016 Looks alright that 120, would of been nice to see a striker side by side. Really like the idea of the cableless lamp but think ill leave it another season to see what happens this year with the lads Quote Link to post

Nice one gaz Yep the 120 is brighter than the 150 mate definitely. The video doesn't do any of the lamps justice with regards to distance. But you can see the spread of the beams and the brightness on the video. Quote Link to post

moocher bb7 51 Posted August 29, 2016 Report Share Posted August 29, 2016 Has anyone tried charging these while being out from one of those lithium power banks for charging phones as they are around 8000 mah around 7-8 amp as an idea of a quick charge if on a long night out and the inevitable happens Quote Link to post
