bigmac 97kt 13,796 Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 not being funny Tom but in my time iv had most of the cheap lamps now i use the good ones lol and a cheap lamp is not cheap for nothing my dear friend atvbmac :thumbs: Quote Link to post
moxy 617 Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 Nothing wrong with those cheap little torches. I have a couple of the 501b's. Spot on for air rifle range and not over bright. Fit nicely in a 25 mm mount. And at a few quid a piece if they go tits up you can wang em in the bin. I've one here that's been on top of the rifle for a good 5 year and still going strong. Get on alibaba and check out the £30 t30's. Pittance a piece. Yes you've to buy a boat load. Sell them in dribs and drabs to claw your money back but it's all the same old cheap tat made in China. (Not knocking the t30's though) A good torch Mac old boy is going to set you back in excess of £150 and they don't stop at £400 Quote Link to post

Iv got a fair few lamps starting at t20,s torches up to a nightmaster 800 torch and hand held lamps from deben up to HID for my running dogs but for £3.42 it's great and will do the job for someone starting out or on a budget. 1 Quote Link to post

Deker 3,478 Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 What are the batteries like for these, I don't have anything that uses these batteries, they don't seem cheap. Any tips here, and what about the chargers? Cheers Quote Link to post

I got one at the same time but it did not take long to feck up lol so got another and that lasted a bit longer , but then came along the t20,s and the t67,s and so on But as for a lamp to get you started there spot on are the cheap ones and as you say,d if they feck up then you just bin them and get another as i did quite often lol atvbmac :thumbs: 1 Quote Link to post
