Dunkield Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 I am after a shoulder bag to stick my lamp battery in, not a belt bag. What do you boys use, and where so I get them from? I need to add at least one afforable item to my Christmas list Cheers, Stuart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axe Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 (edited) To be honest Stuart, if its a lamp battery then it'll be dark so need for Camo, pop into Argus and pickup a cheap back pack. They are only a few quid and its what I use, and if ya have to stuff it with game etc it isnt a problem.

jonno 357 Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 I use 4 x 12v 1.2Ah batteries connected together. These then are attached to a specially designed belt. It uniformally distributes the weight load of the batteries across my back and lumber which makes them very light and easy to carry. I pay £2.19 per 12v 1.2Ah battery. £8.76 for a very very good lamping set up Jonno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Browning Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 Jonno, Where did you get the batteries and belt from ? I'm looking for a new battery at the moment, and your kit seems like it may work well. Cheers, Browning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, Browning Just a normal broad leather belt with some small pockets made from very thick nylon type material attached to the belt. It looks like a divers weight belt, but all the wires are tucked out of the way. UK shootwarehouse sells the 12v 1.2Ah batteries. Give Will a knock see if he can sort you out some batteries Jonno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lurcherboy Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 DONT BUY FROM DEBEN. I got one for Kiwiman and it fell apart in 2 months. All the seams let go due to **** stitching. Deben didn't want to know :< LB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deben didn't want to know :< LB The nylon I use is from a company that make parachutes and the stitching doesn't let go as they made the battery holders Good job really isn't it :thumbs: Jonno Edited November 16, 2005 by jonno 357 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
