Perlin!!!!! 14 Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 I know this as been touch on before, but whats sort of lamping time are you getting out of one of these batteries, and what wattage of bulb are you using? Reason i ask is, ive just bought one and reading the instructions etc, it reckons with a 50w bulb you get 4hrs 20mins lamping but only half of that with a 100w bulb, 2hrs 10m. Currently using a light force 170 with a 100w bulb, will i get half the light out of the lamp if i swap the bulb to 50w? Is a 50w bulb sufficent? Thanks Quote Link to post
IanB 0 Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 Depends what your lamping, a lightforce lance or laserlight is more than suitable for rabbiting... for foxes your better off with the 100watt bulbs. Quote Link to post
DottyDoo 500 Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 2 hr 10 mins aint from when ye actually connect lamp to charger, its the time ye have when light is on.... unless your seriously scared of the dark, you should not need to change yer bulb Quote Link to post
Perlin!!!!! 14 Posted February 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 (edited) use it for foxes and rabbits, but usually out for longer that 2hr 30mins. Is there a great difference in the beam between the 50w bulb and the 100w? Edited February 2, 2011 by Perlin!!!!! Quote Link to post
stabba 10,745 Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 use it for foxes and rabbits, but usually out for longer that 2hr 30mins. Is there a great difference in the beam between the 50w bulb and the 100w? the 2hr 30mins is constant use mate (on for 2hr 30mins) you,ll be lucky if you use half the charge on a normal nights lamping.....atb stabba Quote Link to post
