Head Light
Hi Lads
Had the use of the friends headlight for the weekend in Castlegregory, a LED LENSER, i think he got it in either Veals or Glasgow, it is some piece of kit, the light was like something that you would see in the blitz, it really made the night fish that bit easier.
Great bit of kit just said i'd mention it
Regards
Seamus

Re: Head Light
I recently got an LED Lenser 3 watt from Veals.
Gradual incremental dimming, gradual incremental wide angle to narrow beam.
I haven't run the batteries down yet, so right now can't comment on duration, but rechargeable AAAs will go in when the time comes.
It's the cats pyjamas.

Re: Head Light
lads after a great session last night with an awful yoke of a lamp as Bassmania basked in the glorious light of his lenser, was out in Co Tipp today and went into a tackle/hunting shop and could not believe my luck as the guy had the lenser in stock for €49, at last next stop, the nearest and darkest beach that i can find
