ULTIMATE LAMP

[SUNDAYBAIN 19]

ive just got some red reflector plastic from a brake light ..im gonna make a little slot over cone and see how it works with the mag and tiablo... ive held it up against glass and it works so should work in the field.. bit of an old bogroll and some tape to try it out i think. i will let you know.

hello mate,

 

tried it out tonight for a little walk...works great...but i think the brake light reflector lens i used for the red plastic is too thick..it cuts down too much beam..works well but would be better with some thinner plastic...im going to use some stage lighting gels next (very thin,like sweet wrappers).

but the general idea deffo works..i made it from a couple of plastick cups and a bit of insulation tape...just slots over lens at end.

hello matey.

 

the one in picture is a bit of a car back brake-light lens .... its only a tester set up to see if it worked.. it does so i would probably use a plantpot for the next one i make.

you can get stage lighting gels from any disco supplies type shop.. or theatrical suppliers.and ebay ...its only very thin though so it would,nt stand up to much hammer..

the brake light lens is obviously a lot tougher.. and theres loads in the scrapyard...i just grinded it into the shape and size i wanted.

theres nothing as good as the aspheric kit for lamping etc etc..but they do also loads of differant type of powerfull kits..

ive got a SSC P7 moddified LEd mag thats very good also..it has a 3 stage and its very bright ...but it dont throw as long and tight as the aspherical kit..and if you put the aspherical kit on the LED it dont work as it coppies the LED pattern which is 4xleds inside..it just looks wrong etc etc..

but as a good all round powerfull versatile torch with a massive bright beam,its great.

 

heres a link

http://flashlightnews.net/forum/index.php?topic=810.0

 

 

theres loads of different led set up and kits..but the main thing is the aspherical lens...and a forward throwning powerfull single LED if you want one for LAMPING etc etc

spot on vin.

thanks for your help and advice via pm and phone.

i bought one of the kd upgrades and with vins help got it fitted to the mag,

this is just the tool for lamping the local parks etc great tight beam with hardly any side spill.

cheers mate

hello Tomo.

 

them Leds in BnQ are not the ones matey...the normal Mag(£20) is needed as a start up kit before you add the Cree Q5 LED and the Aspherical lens kit.

go for it lad..it,ll come in handy for the Lamping comp this year.. you can let Mark jacker use it to lighten his load...he might be able to walk further then.lol.

 

any questions anytime PM if you like.
