whippeter69 88 Posted October 24, 2008 Report Share Posted October 24, 2008 (edited) I got a blitz the other week mate and i am well happy with it, great for rabbits and foxes but i use it for the dog because the bigger beam so they can see what is around them. My mates got the striker and that is a good al rounder, between the striker and the blitz either one you'll be happy which ever one you get, but my guess is go for either the blitz Edited October 24, 2008 by whippeter69 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

carlbell 0 Posted October 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2008 Use a blitz when in truck but they a bit bulky for walkin especially when weighed down wi the nights catch climbin fences and fighting through hedges looks like al try the striker. cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest jordy p Posted October 24, 2008 Report Share Posted October 24, 2008 in my opinion mate 170 is best for the rabbits cheers jp Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bill88 6 Posted October 24, 2008 Report Share Posted October 24, 2008 Striker (170) is the ideal tool for bunnies.Blitz is way to big and bright in my oppinion,and the 140 better suited to guns. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

carlbell 0 Posted October 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2008 Best way i found to minimise the risk of them goin down is solder all connections properly. I also use a lighter socket on my battery easy then from vehicle to walking, plus on them real rough wet nights i have no problem lightin a smoke. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

(When the wiring isn't falling apart in the middle of a field somewhere! ) Admit it Malt, you're out in the middle of nowhere on the darkest stormiest night of the year, it's about to start lashing down and you're miles from anywhere.... You'd miss that reassuring feeling that any second now you're lamps going to go blink... blinkblink... blink...................................................................... :censored: :laugh: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
