And with the bulb being a sealed unit(element) they can drain the battery rather quickly.....used em alot during the late ,s very early 90,s.....bulbs arent cheap either so its false economy really...atb stabba

i used to like them lamps, had a blue eye, and also the one called black eye, and the night owl

[wirral countryman 2,110]

I still use my blue eye sometimes when the rabbit's start to get lampshy,change of colour normally works for a few times,I keep 5 different lamp's and they all get used,I've never changed my sealed beam on my blue eye and its took a bit of stick down the year's,it is a nice soft light and is great for rabbits,atb,wirralman

still got one in the shed not a patch on the new lamps.... like someone has mentioned they drain batterys alot quicker

the BLUE EYE yes a fantastic lamp with a super tight beam....but that’s about as far as it goes the bulbs filament drops out with the slightest knock and 15 year ago it was £20 to replace an absolute nightmare.

I got rid of mine because I was sick of buying new bulb units.....

Make your own. Use blue windscreen sun strip-I've done mine for years. On the striker it cuts down a lot of side glare and has a better beam than the old blue eye.The beam is less visible from a distance too.
