tote 856 Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 You don't say what you want it for mate as it could make a difference. I do quite a bit of lamping with the lurchers. My own preference is for the lazerlight lamp and 7amp battery. It has a nice tight beam and can last up to 3 hours depending on how often the lamp is on. If that's not long enough get a 10amp battery to go with the lamp. Quote Link to post

minion 29 Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 I bought a lamp from Arthur Carter field sports through the Countrymans and it is a Lazerlite (I Think) It is made bu Clulite and I think it's a great lamp. I got it with a 17amp battery four years ago but replaced the battery with a 7 amp one as the 17 weighs a bloody tone. Its fairly compact too so can be hid in your jacket fairly easy.

Irish Lurcher 1,013 Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 Scot lurcher I use a 240 blitz for the bunnies when out with the dog, I use the 170 for charlie with rifle, all from Lightforce. Quote Link to post
weekye 0 Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 striker 170 with red filter & 12 amp battery great piece of kit Quote Link to post
weg 0 Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 i prefer striker170 with 17amp battery . i find its got a tighter spot then the blitz and is better to carry as its smaller both good lamps tho and i think you would find it hard to get a better lamp then these two Quote Link to post
