Magoo, Magoo, Magoo, You WON'T see fck all at 500 yards in the fog, proper fog, not just a bit of mist, with ANY lamp.

Stop being so fking silly.

You're probably like most of these other hare courses, mistaking yards for feet.  Yeah 500 feet, about 165ish yards.  Sounds about right to me.

Who remembers the 1000,000 cp lamp from Argos with the red on/off button on top,with the unscrew handle with a tripod inside. Like most people I rewired mine up to a different switch.

Think they sold for about £20,who remembers their actual name and does anyone still have one.I'm sure someone put a picture of one on here not long ago.

I seen one on a market stall back about 3 years ago for £10,wish I picked it up now,even came with original box.

Had a few of these and you could swap the lens for old lucas headlight glass

Been caught out by the Fog many, many times...

You check the weather for the night (best as you could, back in the day) but sometimes you knew that as each mile you got closer to the location, the fecking fog seemed to be following you, and eventually overtaking ya 

NO sporting spotlight works on those damp misty nights, and generally, a bad lamping night is a crap snaring and netting night...The grass is kinda damp, and the air seems clingy,...very few rabbits choose to move far out , if the don't need to.

Best to sack it, stay at home, and save the fuel for another night.
