digit Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 The Night Master, you should be able to pick up a second hand one for your budget, or any of the t20,t38,t50 and t67 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mick miller Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 (edited) The x searcher by far has the better throw and tighter beam. The head adjustment is utter pants though and this is where the T series torches win. Edited January 17, 2015 by mick miller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave-G Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 The x searcher by far has the better throw and tighter beam. The head adjustment is utter pants though and this is where the T series torches win. I personally think the T67 has too tight a beam that would miss a lot of eyes when having a shine about - and the spill sometimes helps a bit there. If the X searcher beam is even tighter I'm glad I'm glad don't have one. I'm not being bitchy or anything about it but too tight a beam for lamping doesnt seem a very good idea to me.

mick miller Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 (edited) I found it useless for lamping Dave. It's like trying to laser target your quarry. The standard nightmaster is good enough, but I'm with you, a flood to focus torch is much handier. It's just a shame the bods in China decided to make that t67 so humpingly large. They could have gotten away with a much lighter head and a smaller main tube. I think that world have been the winner by a mile. As it is, other than the weight, the t67 is much more practical in the field. But better from a vehicle rather than a pocket carry.

Medic1281 Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 Does anyone do a flood type lens for the nm800? The reason I ask is that I use the nm800 on my rifle and think it's good, but I need a torch for work that has a less focussed beam. Instead of buying a new torch I wondered if I could get a different head for the nm800 and swap heads depending on if I'm at work or shooting.

mick miller Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 You just have to loosen the lens, you know, so is slops around on the overly fine threads. It was, ummm, 'designed' like that don't you know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Medic1281 Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 I know that, but it's a **** torch on flood. I was thinking a non aspheric lens might have been available for when you don't want the tight beam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
