It's a classic. . . . that little square old crappy thing is responsible for starting many a mans lamping career. . . . I would love to have a walk with one these days and see if I can still catch a few after lighting up the whole area...lol

I will never be without a dimmer on a lamp again.

Its surprising how little light is needed to pick up the eyes though.im sure the dogs eyes are better again at picking the eyes out than ours.

Many a time the dog will give a pull on the slip and I haven't seen any eyes at all.but he's telling me something is there.When scanning with the dimmer turned right down.

I hate the thought of the dog hunting up at night.he will during the day but at night as soon as the lamp is off he is right back to my left hand side.

I don't want to encourage that to be honest mate.

But Yea I agree theres plenty of stuff sitting about when it's dark.
