southern cross 1 Posted November 12, 2017 Report Share Posted November 12, 2017 Hello everyone. Ive returned to lamping after a few years and dug out my old 170 lamp. Looking on the internet for a new bulb I saw some new lamps with led bulbs in. They seem quite cheap so I was thinking about buying one but being from yorkshire I didnt want to spend money without finding out first if they were any good. If someone could shed some light on it and enlighten me .......pardon the pun, id be very happy. Thank you. Quote Link to post
RossM 8,119 Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 Depends on what, and how far out you want to lamp Quote Link to post
Northern Rock 512 Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 I use one with my pup, beam fades after a couple of 100 m but they are light, last well and once you get used to the colour of the light do the job. The 170 is a far better lamp though . 2 Quote Link to post

stormyboy 1,352 Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 I had a 120 from you Dave. Nice bright light, but wider beam than I prefer. Do you have one with similar light output but narrower beam? 120 with beam half as wide would be the perfect lamp imo. Quote Link to post
D Lloyd 2,790 Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 The best tight beam is the 150 with battery in handle or if you will take one with cable it would be 45w will beat the blizs for distance with a much tighter beam Quote Link to post
stormyboy 1,352 Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 I'll have one from you next year Dave. On the lookout for a pup at the mo that will be ready for next season. 120 doing ok for what I do at the moment. Quote Link to post
