At the suggestion of various members and given the magazines will run a mile from criticising a piece of kit, here is your chance to tell us what you really think about a rod, reel, line, lure... keep it legal please!

Chub Head Light

#1 Post by Conger »

My Lenser headlight recently had a close encounter with a youghal rock and did not come out the good side of it, only way to turn on and off was to put in and take out the batteries along with a dodgy light. So i was in Tralee on Friday and and after hearing that Landers were having a sale i said i'd have a nosy. Talking to the lads in store i spotted a new head light on display, i know i raved on before about the lenser and would still recommend the lenser, but after seeing the Chub light been tested in a dark room i was very impressed and picked one up. There is a main beam that can be switched between low and high light settings, you get 10 hours continuous on the high setting and 20 on the low setting, hope i have this right, the main light has up to 125 lumens. There are 3 smaller leds above the main light that flick between green and red, there is another wee light on the back of the battery pack that can be set on continuous or blinking (the only thing it is missing is the reversing beeper :D :D :D ) Hopefully getting out in the next week so will update on how good it is. Just after looking up the Chub range and their tackle is really aimed at the coarse angler but as i said will update

Regards

Conger (the now reversable fisherman :D :D :D )
