steve_b_wales Posted March 31 Report Share Posted March 31 I'm looking for recommendations for a scope mounted torch. Nothing too elaborate, just one that will be powerful enough for 150-250 yards. I usually have my IR torch on the scope, and I also have a hand held cordless lamp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll have a dig around tomorrow. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miki Posted March 31 Report Share Posted March 31 I have a torch here with 2 heads, one 38mm and the other 50mm. It has a single battery or a twin battery extension tube (takes 1 or 2 x 18650) Comes with a Red, White and 850nm IR (screw in) pill £60 inc postage (no batteries).

I'll double check in my attic tomorrow as I'm sure I had one with a red/white and IR LED, just like the one you've shown. I will get back to you if I can't find it. Thanks.

steve_b_wales Posted April 14 Author Report Share Posted April 14 I've also purchased a 75mm head for the torch. It gives one hell of a long range beam when on its tightest setting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldypigeonpopper Posted April 15 Report Share Posted April 15 Hello, to make my T 38 torch work better i bought a 2 X 37 mm camera lens and tapped on the front bezel, much improved beam and distance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello, ok, silly me gave this torch away or i would have sent to you, i now use a night fox 850 I/R torch , are you looking at a I/R torch for your scope ??, the 2 X lens on the T38 does make it rather heavy, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got a small ir torch at the moment, and my Solaris SRX ir torch is up for sale, basically through lack of use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
