watchman 256 Posted August 14, 2010 Report Share Posted August 14, 2010 well iv been meaning to get a new lamp for a few years now so after a lot of consideration iv got one,so its goodbye to the trusty clulite and welcome home the light force striker 170, easy as that you might think but no i went a little bit further,probably a bit further than i should but hey its only money so got myself a new lithium ion power pack,yes they really are £120 hence the bloody tears lol,so with careful hiding of all packaging from the one who must be obeyed lol,im ready for the season to start just hope this kit is all its cracked up to be Quote Link to post
IanB 0 Posted August 14, 2010 Report Share Posted August 14, 2010 If I was stomping about on foot a lot, I'd be using the exact same setup... Quote Link to post
dytkos 17,784 Posted August 14, 2010 Report Share Posted August 14, 2010 First job then is to get the fecker rewired. Had no end of bother til got mine sorted. The Blazer is miles better than the Striker in most respects, except for the length of beam. PS If you really want to be more fecked off, try getting a filter for the Striker and see how much of a faff that is! Cheers, D. Quote Link to post

ace32 4 Posted August 15, 2010 Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 been useing a clulite for about 4 years now,for shooting and dogs,not a single prob,on all night,just went and bought a second one last week,customer service is spot on,buying a lamp at them prices then have to rewire it,cos its cheap crap wireing,you should all send em back for replacement then they might do a proper job on them,looks like the typical deben shite,vastly over priced,fkin hell its like buying a gun with no trigger or expecting the barrel to fall of if you fart,well thats my two penneth worth ,oki doki,ian Quote Link to post
