Yes mate I use one with my Yukon NVMT 50.,Ive got it fitted to my Blazer lamp (100watt bulb).There cheap enough but the beam is poor.Ive just ordered a Infa Red filter for my Striker after seeing the difference with the beam on my mates Striker set up.The Cluson lamp and filter work fine but to be honest the Striker and its filter work a lot better.I ordered the infa red filter from Optics warehouse it costs around £ with postage.

A lad I know of cut a couple of the brackets off his filter and fitted it to his Striker with a small hinge.I would try it but there too expensive to replace.

is there much difference in the infra red, than, say the red filter?

Yes, the infra red filter is for use with night vision equipment, the plain

red filter is for use with the naked eye.

When you use infa red there is no visible beam at all.you could turn the lamp on and point it at your hand and you would think the bulb had gone.However if you look through a NV unit you can see the beam as normal.A red filter just dims the brightness down of the beam and the beam is a shade of red (obviously).I use both it depends what filter will suit you for your needs.
