P7 Not Up To Expectations

[Cushty mush 95]

Well I lost my little Cree led torch last night on my

Last rabbit shot, but was only a cheapy and had

Plenty of use out of it for 15qwid so I never worried

To much,, and poppet in to maplins and got a new p7

320lumens said range was 210 Mters

 

So took it out to night and had a look round good torch

And recognising query out to said range eye shine out to

maybe 250/70 but as soon as you put a filter on it

(I say filter quality street wrapper) it's useless

And that was my main objective ? Does anybody recommend

A good led torch with a range 200 yrds with a filter on?

 

And I just carnt justify a nightmaster deree

At those prices !!!! Any tips???

Got a tracer ledray 300 white. And clears 200yards with amber filter but not with red, maybe 120yards with the red filter.

Is this the lenser p7 your talking about? If so I have the same torch, at first I was impressed in till I bought a cheap £14 cree off ebay which was just as(if not) brighter than my p7 which I payed £49 for, always pay more for something that comes in a fancy box ?.

To be fair I've probably paid more for mine because of the name tracer. But its still a bloomin good lamp

If you want a long distance RED get this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/UniqueFire-HS-802-Cree-1-Mode-Long-range-Red-light-hunting-Led-Flashlight-torch-/171190737117?pt=UK_SportsLeisure_Camping_LightsLanternsTorches&hash=item27dbc358dd

 

The same seller puts them up for auction starting at 99p so you can get it much cheaper. I wouldn't have told anyone before, but I now have three of them

That looks just what I'm looking for what range would get

Out it ??

It's no good really putting a filter on an LED torch, far better to change the chip for a red/blue/amber/green one

If u want cheap changeable colour lamp a halogen is the way to go.

 

The led lenser torches are made to high quality so should last a lifetime.

 

And as said before filter on a led doesn't work.

Much further than I expected.

 

I have used it to count rabbits on the cliff top near me and with the central part of the beam I can see them clearly at 175m (I just measured it on Google Maps) without using a scope.

The new crelant 7g6cs will be the best for your cash

 

Great quality super bright long throw and at £35

 

Have just ordered one will take a few weeks to get here

I started with P7 mate, I've since moved onto the night master 800, expensive but performance is outstanding well worth the money?

Try a T20 with a red LED or if you can handle a soldering iron an Olight SR 50/51 with a red led will give an enormous throw
