Hi all, been a while.
Done nothing of any note lately so decided to buy a new torch ( a lenser p14-to be precise ) which can be focused. All the torches i have used previously have been of the floodlight type but after seeing some of the results obtained by Tommo, Newage and many others i thought i'd give it a go. It takes a little bit of practise to get it right ( plus a few billion sacrificed pixels !! ) but i think its worth a go !! What d'ya think ?

So there you have it....cant wait to get out on a proper and pitch black explore to try some more !!!!:mrgreen:
 
I have an LED Lenser Police tec focus version for work but some how it found it's way home got to try it out on some tunnels nearby.. Nice photo's mr Fluffy
 
Pics are fine Fluffy, I bought my P14 some time ago and they are in my opinion the best, I now have the T7 and the H7, all have stood up to a fair bit of punishment while accompanying me on explores and their fitness for purpose and reliability are worth the price.

:idea:If the nice kind folk from Lenser happen to read this I am willing to road test all their products, (they’ll never get em back but I will send them a thank you note) :smile:
 
These led lensers are getting tres popular, two of us on the same explores this week were using them. Has anyone got its uber big brother? Apparently it's the equivalent of ten of the smaller ones and the demo video shows first the commo one then daylight appearing early courtesy of the big 'un!!!
 
Sorry guys !! Didcot C&W stores is the old abandoned building hiding amongst the trees half way down the freight yard at Didcot. It was where the Carriage and Wagon fitters had their mess facilities as well as where the stores were kept !!
