faisal Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 Hi I am new to lamping , went out yesterday for a short trip to try my deben tracer pro (with red filter) . The direction of the beam was lower than the scope .I know it can be adjusted but i couldnt manage it last night (as the kit is all new to me). Anyway struggled to look through the scope despite turning the brightness to full. It was a quite night no wind and made very noisy walking on the frost, so 2 bunnies ran away before i could get closer and third one stopped short of the warren and sat for ages but i couldnt see its head clearly so had to let it go) I was wondering if I should leave it as it is or bring the beam direction in line with the scope so i have more control over brightness. any suggestions welcome. Cheers FAISAL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beardo Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 hello mate, there is an allen key adjuster in the centre of the **** at the back of the lamp - i think the thumb **** adjust left and right and the allen key in the centre adjusts up and down (it may be the other way round). you should adjust the beam to it sits better with your scope zero (30 yards at a guess).

fo5ter Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 If you are serious about lamping its also a good idea to get a good scope with a large objective lens - 50mm for example. this will allow more light in (think f.stops with a camera) producing a clearer picture. Also you wont need to have a hugely bright lamp to be able to clearly see the little bunny faces when they stare at the shiny red thing and wonder what the hell it is...

noluv6 Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 Under a red lamp your looking for eye's so pointless looking for rabbit's.That's why I don't like red. use green or no filter or flip ur red up and when you see big ear's flip it back down. Alway's hold your lamp to the sky and then bring it down on top of where your looking,don't hold it on the ground and pull it up. ATB ps might need to mount your lamp on the front of your scope or use a smaller objective scope or higher mount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
