trigger2 3,100 Posted August 12, 2019 Report Share Posted August 12, 2019 Have you tried adjusting the distance the bulb is pulled out/ pushed into the lamp that helps with getting a better spot along with the head adjustment. I always used a horizontal filament bulb in my lamp but then again I only used 30 watt bulbs. 1 Quote Link to post
bunnyboiler 1,050 Posted August 12, 2019 Report Share Posted August 12, 2019 As said don’t push the bulb all the way in to the head leave it a few mill sticking out then adjust the lamp by turning the lamp head left and right atb B.B. 1 Quote Link to post
ratcher 69 Posted August 12, 2019 Report Share Posted August 12, 2019 As above, you have to pull the bulb out a little at a time until you get a nice tight beam , just don't touch the bulb with your fingers use a cloth or paper to hold the bulb while adjusting it . 1 Quote Link to post
