How and why we achieved the Mini-Lamp Focus |
Following extensive research and product trialling, by people who use lamping kits on a daily basis, key questions kept arising.
Working hand in hand with leading manufacturers around the world, solutions needed to be found to fulfil all the requirements which had been put to us.
The result of this is a unique product which specifically fulfils the needs of the modern hunter more than any other gun mounted lamping kit currently on the market.
1. Power and usable beam focus
The CREE XLamp XR-E is the industry’s most suitable led for a tight long distance throwing beam of light. Others have tried to match its performance but no one has come close. Couple this LED with the Aspherical lens and it produces a pencil thin, cool white beam of light which throws up to 200 metres with absolutely no spill. If you need to spread the beam to see a wider area it is simply done by pulling the head of the torch back.
2. Light weight and compact
At 195g including torch, batteries, mount, remote lead and filter and 127.5 mm long, it has no noticeable affect on feel and balance when attached to the rifle, which can be so crucial when holding aim. It can also be easily carried around and used as a conventional hand held torch.
3. Quick and easy to mount
The Mini-Lamp can be detached and re-attached to the other half of the alloy mount on the rifle scope, one handed, in about 5 seconds. This is achieved by means of an ultra fast detachable mounting system, with a spring tension controlled locking plate and fast lever mechanism, which zeroes the lamp in with the scope and holds it securely, every time it’s re-attached.
4. Usable modes
The torch offers three usable intensities of light for different situations without any unnecessary functions, such as strobe, to catch you out, and these are easily accessed on the torch or with the remote pressure switch.
5. Practical filter system and remote switch
The amber filter can be permanently left attached to the torch and can be flipped up and down as required (Other colours are available). The remote pressure switch simply replaces the tail switch on the torch.
6. Strong and reliable
Made of aircraft grade 6061-T6 aluminium with a Type II hard-anodized finish. The Mini-Lamp is shock, dust and water resistant and in normal use is virtually unbreakable. This, coupled with the durable type of electronics and LED contained inside, makes this an extremely reliable torch.
7. Practical battery life
Supplied with the industries best 18650 protected rechargeable Lithium Ion batteries (CBT Cells) which can be swapped over very easily, offering a combined torch life, if used constantly on full power, for two hours per battery, but in normal use will easily last an evenings shoot. An added option is to use three AAA sized batteries which are readily available throughout the UK.
The battery charger comes with a 12V cigar lighter adapter, which means you can recharge batteries on the go.
