Plummerterrier 291 Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 Was thinking that rc battery wouldn't last anytime with some bigger lamps Quote Link to post

andy97 209 Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 the 4ah ones are really only any good for the led lamps have one for the tri star tbh it all depends on how long your gunna be out ive flattend the 8 and 14 so bought the 22 but if your only having 1-3 hour out the 14 will be enough Quote Link to post
DeerhoundLurcherMan 997 Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 Some right tight f**kers on here Some people spend thousands on fishing gear some spend thousands on their motors, others do it on shotguns and rifles, if lamping is your thing £200 for a battery and £100 on a lamp that will last you a good few seasons is a bargain.... 1 Quote Link to post
BIGLURKS 874 Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 You can't beat a lithium battery had mine about 2 seasons now nothing worse then the old sealed ones I know if mine broke I'd be out too get a new one the morn have you thought about the new led lamps with built in lithium battery if your only doing the odd night on the rabbits my mate got one last I'd give them the a look and there not heavy actually lighter then my set up I found they just don't have the same brightness on long range is all but perfectly fine for the odd nights on the bunnys this is it here a quick search but you could find it cheaper some where else http://m.uttings.co.uk/p115152-buffalo-river-cree-led-hand-held-rechargeable-lamp-brlt6uk/ Quote Link to post
HBG 350 Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 As title says lithium ion 22ah is £200+ on eBay far too much for me please enlighten me am I not looking properly and there is cheaper out there if not is there a next best thing ? Even down to a good brand of standard battery I am currently using a sealed lead acid 7ah x3 keep a couple in the car and just go bk but it's a pain in the ass lamp I'm using is a tracer 170 vp any ideas cheers in advancewhy dont ya wire two of ya 7amp batteries up to give ya 14 amps this with a 50watt bulb in ya lightforce will last you all night and no difference to ya beam,i have lithiums and wouldn't go back to the acid batteries,but wiring them up would save you going back to the car.
