25inch-tts 10 Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 getting sorted with new lamping gear and am gonna get the lightforce 140 lamp as ill just be doing small fields, i used to have the 170 lamp and it was champion but a little big so was wondering if the small one is ok? also the new batterys with power gage on them have a load of different amp ratings starting from 4 amp (the cheapest) up to 24 amp(very expensive), is the 4amp ok for a few hours walk about with a dozen slips or so or will i get better performance/light etc with bigger amp battery and will they be ok for the small 140 lamp???

.WARREN. 288 Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 id go for 17ah battery rather it last, than run out, Quote Link to post
THELURCHERANDLONGDOG 91 Posted May 31, 2013 Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 The 140 is a great lamp for most jobs , I would personally get a VP model "variable power" and stick a 100w vertical filament osram bulb in it. The 4ah battery may be a little under power I would look for a 10ah for your job Quote Link to post

trigger2 3,137 Posted May 31, 2013 Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 i use the lightforce lance with a 14amp lithium battery its a good piece of kit. i run a 30watt bulb in my lamp which helps keep the battery use down, the only time ive had my battery run flat was when it got old and needed replacing. 1 Quote Link to post
