philpot 4,998 Posted January 17, 2017 Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 I agree Si, that is how I read it. I bought a similar unit on eBay which was a little more expensive but to be honest, very good. My son in law is using it at the moment as I bought a NiteSite which is much lighter and more controllable. You can buy a T20 torch cheap enough then you are in business. Phil Quote Link to post
ArchieHood 3,692 Posted January 17, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 Just had a reply from him, he agrees it is misleading and offered an ir torch at half price.I have requested a refund. 1 Quote Link to post

Maybe trading standards can look Ino it. Quote Link to post
philpot 4,998 Posted January 17, 2017 Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 Never seen a torch included with this type of unit as people may already own a torch or want a different one to the one offered. I would borrow a torch and test it before returning the item but that is just me. Phil Quote Link to post

philpot 4,998 Posted January 17, 2017 Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 Some bloke does some nice kit including gear to make your own spotting scopes. Phil Quote Link to post
PeskyWabbits 464 Posted January 17, 2017 Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 You could try this for ultimate bargain basement, though he does have teething troubles. It is a good example of a build and the solutions to common problems. http://nightvisionforumuk.com/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=13683 There seem to be a lot of start ups with what is becoming a standard build. I am tempted myself as I like the hobbyist ventures. It is the shooting stance that puts me off. Quote Link to post
philpot 4,998 Posted January 17, 2017 Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 I find the stance very comfortable using the trigger sticks Pesky, standing or sitting but never tried prone shooting with an add-on unit. Phil Quote Link to post
PeskyWabbits 464 Posted January 17, 2017 Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 It is very tempting to build one, or even a spotter to see what is lurking in the night. Going back to the original post, yes it clearly states the Contents List on page 2 of the 'instrutions' as they have put it. I think the poor bloke with his new company needs to get this changed sharpish. It isn't misleading it is completely wrong and invalidates every kit sale. 1 Quote Link to post
xraiderx 94 Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 I'm thinking of selling my Dave George ( some bloke ) addon Never used outside for around that price YouTube some bloke Quote Link to post
Paulnix 426 Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 Some bloke does some good stuff with 3d printing and his gear is actually his own builds rather than a collection of parts which all the home made kit builders use just put together for you, it's something you can do yourself with little knowledge and make a tidy job of it. I happily used other peoples work to make my own ( copy of many others ) build and have spotted a neighbours fencer and car battery unit at 299 yrds 1 Quote Link to post
