welshwarrior Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 Bloody hell that looks good but does it need a battery pack. My 501c has just gone tits up so need a new torch/lamp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malkiserow Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 looks interesting, can we see the rest of your set up(battery switch etc)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Geordie Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 Can I ask if this IR from the T20 is the right wavelength for gen1 NV? I Have a NV scope sat in the cupboard and currently use it with an IR Laser to increase the range and clarity. If these T20's are compatible and offer better illimunation I think I Will add one to my wish list! Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1087 Posted April 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 The mini t20 is for my spotter build it will fit on top of the camera it will be hard wired to it and it will work off the trigger I don't no about the ir for the gen 1 someone one here will no if not ask Ian at irlightbuilds on face book he will no Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best try one before you buy one - but the cheapest route is to get an IR drop-in module - or even just a brass pill to swap into your 501b that can do rather well now you have modified it, depending on the gen1 and the range you need from it..

Dave1087 Posted April 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2014 I haven't seen one done like this one before I asked Ian to make it for me Ian has been making 12v all the time as far as I am aware it just depends on what people ask him to make I got a 66mm 12v ir with the pill slider & dimmer I do like that one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weebster Posted April 11, 2014 Report Share Posted April 11, 2014 (edited) This is it all mounted That's a neat setup. One I did for torchwood (iirc) on nvf,I think he knocked up a spotter in a box with it plus a crt viewer from an old camcorder. http://s1009.photobucket.com/user/weebster6419/media/T20/Photo967_zps68d1aa74.jpg.html One with a rocker switch and 2.1 female socket. http://s1009.photobucket.com/user/weebster6419/media/T20/Photo847_zps7ce9281a.jpg.html Have done quite a few slidy's inc with dimmer,although tbh the dimmer is wasted in a torch that can be adjusted. http://s1009.photobucket.com/user/weebster6419/media/T20/Photo879_zps70e2802a.jpg.html Edited April 11, 2014 by weebster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
