Romany 1,065 Posted December 4, 2011 Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 Ive never bought a lamp in my life, always made my own, had a Lucas square 8, took the glass out, as the bulb had a black metal cover around it, one of the best lamps Ive used, first one probably still lying in a hedge near Wooler, but made others for myself and lads I travelled with at that time 1 Quote Link to post
trigger2 3,146 Posted December 4, 2011 Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 i used a lr9 when i was a kid good lamp. carried a motorbike battery in a wooden box with some car seatbelt as a strap, had a match broke off in the breather hole to stop the acid leaking out. Quote Link to post
