Guest BIG FRANK Posted November 30, 2007 Report Share Posted November 30, 2007 about 40 mins Would 1 million last longer? start with a mill if you get into it you can save up and buy a better one you want to spend about 60 quid and get a 5 mill rechargeable it will be worth it in the long run mate ...........when your out having a good night and your lamp dies it sucks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daz1976 8 Posted November 30, 2007 Report Share Posted November 30, 2007 5 mil it will be like police searching from helicopter with that Quote Link to post Share on other sites
