TOM TERRIER 173 Posted August 12, 2009 Report Share Posted August 12, 2009 (edited) Think Ebay is about the best for lamps, I just bought a 170 striker with red filter for £.98 delivered. As for batteries, try a local battery supplier, I use Manbat (put manbat in google), think they have got a few depos around the country. Hope this helps.

TOM TERRIER 173 Posted August 12, 2009 Report Share Posted August 12, 2009 No, Just the normal one. I have never done anything with variable power, But im told the cheapest way is to get a normal lamp, and get a variable resistor (like a dimmer switch you would have in you house,but less clumsy from an eletrical wholesalers) and wire it between the lamp and battery. Never tryed it though! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

These doodads: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Lightforce-Gun-Shoot...id=p3286.c0.m14 There seems to be around a 50 quid difference between variable and non, so this switch would save you a few quid I guess?
