bunnyboiler 1,052 Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 Depends on what bulb your using and whether your lamp happy mate check the fuses on both batteries and connect the lamp to each one Quote Link to post
yorkshirelad2 24 Posted January 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 would that make a difference then buddy connecting the lamp to both batts. Cheers Quote Link to post

HGB am thinking of a blitz, how come you changed the bulb to 50 watt ? Am now using the deben version off the striker, not that impressed with it. I still have my old coleman 800,000 that i used to use back in the 90,s for roadsiding off the back of the van with Quote Link to post
HBG 350 Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 you get longer out of ya batteries, it dont make any difference to the beam,try it mate you'll be surprised,i have a 14 amp lithium now running a blitz wid a 50 in,my brother lamped off the back of the van one night on his own(both sides of the road)so the light was on pretty much all of the time,we were out about 4/5 hours cant remember exactly and the battery had only used two of the five indicator lights, if yorkshirelad2 can afford it i would go for the lithium.
