Recommended Posts


spot on...

 

how do you rate the blitz lamp, (is it called that?)????

personally use the striker, good for allround use, and have been told the ?blitz? is to big...? cheers. :search:

i lamp off the back of the van mate and need a good length beam,i have found this the best for my job,but if i am gonna walk the fields for rabbits i agree they are a bit big and i use the next one down.

best way to lamp HBGs mate definately but Ive found that it wa getting too hot with the van in country lanes at night,,,I was getting pulled nightly so the Good old Escort 75 had to go....

Just outta interest..When I lamped we liked a real fast dog to jump the gate ASAP when Lamping charlies,,,We always left the engine running and squeked them in still standing on the van...Some stop and go to the gate to lamp and call, but we thought that was too noisy...How do you do it?

when lamping off the van mate you need quick dogs to get to the fox(well you do where i live),when we see a fox we just stop in a suitable position to get a run(quickly though), the dogs know there job there gone over the gate, hedge(providing its not to high) or wire.its very rare i stop mate to be honest to squeak them in,but if i do engine off one stops at van and the one squeaking walk down the road away from the van.its worked a few times but the time it takes its easier to drive on and look for an other.

we do a lot of 'road sliding' to, but still stick with the striker.... each to there own, thanks for answering my query... :)

you said you've been told its to big,only way find out mate is give it a try,i bet you prefer it,the beam is much longer,and i only have a fifty watt bulb in mine.
