Lloyd90 509 Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 Hi guys, just looking for some advice as to which lamp and battery kit is best to buy Been looking at the lightforce 170 plus battery kit 12v then various amps , as far as I can see, the higher the amps on the battery the longer it lasts right ? Are they all 12v ? I know lithium batterys are lighter, is this the only advantage as there much more expensive. Where is the best place to buy a set ? I need lamp, battery and obv a charger for the battery! It will be used for lamping with my rifles and maybe some dog work in the future appreciate any advice , cheers Quote Link to post
donkdaniel 236 Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 Arthur carter is good mate usually in the countrymans weekly I use 22 amp lithium with a blits I think I would go for a striker next time think the blits is a bit of a handful when shutting gates and that but I used a 17 amp acid for a long time and I will never go back after using the lithium mate hope this helps atb chris Quote Link to post
rapidjenky 97 Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 this is a very frequently asked question mate. you wont go wrong with a lightforce striker variable and 14ah lithium batterty. charger should come with the battery. Quote Link to post
