Thread: Astrolux FT03

Hi all,

Had anyone tried out one of these torches for a rifle mount?
Looks like they're reasonably priced if they perform as advertised.

Hi Hahn,

You purchased that off me already I see, should be with you tomorrow hopefully.

I sell that model to quite a few deer hunters who have only given positive feedback on Trade Me.

For mounting though I would have recommended my Osram C8 for straight forward mounting with its 25mm body diameter. You'll need to space out where the mount attaches to the scope to match the FT03 diameter.

Some prefer it as a handheld because of the weight even though it's only approx 20g heavier (incl battery) than the popular Maxtoch 2X Shooter.



Regards,

Jacob

Hi Jacob,

Cheers for the reply. I'm looking forward to trying it out. Last time I used a spotlight it was a very large 12v halogen and you couldn't go far from the truck. Hopefully I'll get a chance to go for a shoot soon!
