toka_shigazu Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 hi, i am after a torch to go with my airrifle/.22 rimfire, 30 yards for rats and 100 yards for rabbits with the rimfire...has anyone had any dealings with the below torch...says it will do the 100-120 yards distance. [can be found on ebay] if not does anyone have any suggestions of xenon or led torches. i have a gun lamp but want something smaller as i no longer have a shooting partner to share the lamp work... G&P X9 High Pressure Xenon 9V HAND TORCH Flashlight thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadeye ive Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 Look at the Deben range and go for the 400 pro max C/W Dimmer and aquire a amber and red diffuser. I'm afraid i haven't had dealing with your suggestion but what i've stated here is more than up for the job you require No good should you progress to Foxing with fullbore though Ive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toka_shigazu Posted March 25, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 ..any more thoughts on a torch rather than a lamp?...the x-verminator has been mentioned as well but i dont know anyone who has used one... thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNAKEBITE Posted March 26, 2006 Report Share Posted March 26, 2006 The Debens are the ones to go for. Make sure you get a dimer switch on it, this will give you all the flexablity you need. I understand that the 12volt versions have a 6volt bulb in them that can be damaged if you don't watch what you do when you plug it in. At £15 a pop (pardon the pun) you want to remember this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNAKEBITE Posted March 26, 2006 Report Share Posted March 26, 2006 I'd explain why BUT We're in the Girlie airgunning section so they would,nt understand That's the trouble with us air gunners we only pretend! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toka_shigazu Posted March 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2006 thanks for the responses, i have a lamp but want something smaller with less wires that i can operate safely and easily by myself... some of the led and xenon torches may do...does anyone have any experience with either premierelight, madjak or G&P X9 High Pressure Xenon 9V hand torch?

SNAKEBITE Posted March 27, 2006 Report Share Posted March 27, 2006 Deben do a model that sits on the gun, battery and all. Not sure of the specifications but have a look and see if that is what you are after. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
