MickyB 327 Posted August 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 I think i'm going to try the Olight M3X Triton, with the RED filter and Lit-Ion batteries (+ a Spare set) with extended handle for the batteries, total would be about £140 but if it works and lasts it will be well worth it. Thanks for the input chaps. http://www.taclight.co.uk/products/olight-m3x-triton-tactical-flashlight-t6#.VdSfYvlVhBc Quote Link to post
lurchers 2,855 Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 Long gone have the nights of carrying a car battery or motorbike battery!! God knows how many pairs of shirts or army trousers I've burnt with leaked acid after falling over an leaking. As for lamps? Who remembers the Lucas car lights? The L.R. 9 an the L.R 14.? Brilliant lamps them when converted with a doorbell as on an off switch. Hahaha that brings back memories the younguns would look at you now if you turned up with one of them?? Quote Link to post

Brilliant lamps them when converted with a doorbell as on an off switch.Way before my time mate haha, I'm trying to get rid of the separate battery altogether, I bet it made for some interesting nights though i remember walking all night just for a couple runs, swapping over every couple of fields because of the weight of the battery, or traveling 100 miles for the lamp to fcuk up in the first field,get back in the viva van an drive home. Must have been mad, regrets?? None, happy days an do it all again. We had a princess,Chevete van or a 3ltr Capri.ya posh snob a van Quote Link to post
lurchers 2,855 Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 I'm thinking of the Tourch as we got the son one for Xmas and it's brilliant plus you can buy the green led or red just to swap straight over. Quote Link to post

Hunting loon 100 Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 I use to use one with the battery pack that went over shoulder but found it to clumsy when climbing gates fences etc so ended up buying led hand held lamp like the ones home bargains sell for 11quidThat's the kind of thing I'm looking for, like with fishing when I was a kid I'd take as much gear as possible but now I just take what I can get away with. what model are you using, how do you find it in the field ? this is the type I used ebay list number 29089632798 did my fine caught few rabbits we it suppose this would be just as good as mine but mines about 4 years old and no longer made 1 Quote Link to post
