VanRoy Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 I used to use a Tracer compact with the battery incorporated in the lamp, which i found perfect for a long walk in the dark, no strain on your back with a heavy battery. I cant seem to find one for sale, so it looks like i need to bite the bullet and get a battery pack jobie. So come on then which one do i go for, how much? etc, etc, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beardo Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 i've got a Tracer Mini, great little lamp and more than happy with it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axe Posted January 16, 2009 Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 Deben Tracer Max Pro, its a perfect lamp that can be dimmed to nothing. Onwards of £125 but worth every penny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave-G Posted January 16, 2009 Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 (edited) Given this is in the air gunner section I guess you'll use it for one. There is a tracer Atom Tactical which comes with an elastcated battery pack pouch that stretch fits the butt. Get a recent build one that has a 2000mah NimH pack. No trailing wires etc, and it will see you through a three hour walkabout if you are sensible with the dimmer switch setting and "on" time.

Carbonrocket Posted January 17, 2009 Report Share Posted January 17, 2009 It is correct to have the beam slightly off left or right? Will rabbits spook if its straight on to them when looking through the sights? Carbon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave-G Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 The Deben Tracer Atom Tactical is supplied with a dimmer - and it is well worth the extra cost. Most other Deben lamps are available with or without a dimmer. I'd say - if you do not have a dimmer, have the lamp correctly aligned but don't "aim on" till you are ready to shoot. The Debens also have flip down filters available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
