    pls recommend me a flashlight with handle

    Hmm the lightforce look good, but as mentioned - the primary use is more for multi-pruprose / tinkering rather than finding men overboard. Whilst I would like the torch to have a reasonable throw and power, I don't want a massive, wired up search light. Just read the comment regarding...

    pls recommend me a flashlight with handle

    Wow that Jetbeam is very tempting!!! a little above what I was hoping to spend though. No idea how to recharge " three 18650 li-ion cells" either! That handle mount thingy is a great idea - does anyone know if jetbeam or A.N Other make similar handles but in various generic sizes? I was...

    pls recommend me a flashlight with handle

    Wow thanks for all your help chaps! To fill in some extra info - the boat is a small sailing yacht, and apart from nighttime /searchlight duties my father used to use his previous torch quite a bit for illuminating the engine bay, which is under the cockpit in an innaccessible cubby hole. So in...

    pls recommend me a flashlight with handle

    Hi I am relatively familiar with all the usual cylindrical tactical style flashlights, owning a few myself, but for xmas my dad has asked for a torch with a handle to replace the one on his boat (which is something like this: http://www.outdoorgear.co.uk/Eveready-Torch-sku53310801.asp ). I...

    Recommend me a breathable lightweight waterproof!

    Hi all, off to cornwall with the new mrs for our honeymoon and thought it best to prepare for the worst. Despite having loads of bushkit, I don't have a single standard hikey-style lightweight jacket. I'd be pleased for some recommendations. Not after anything flashy, but at the same time don't...

    Good idea for an out door grill?

    .........having looked at the link to the other thread, I haven't had the same experience as Bisamratte; mine has coped with pans of water no problems, and I don't find it particularly fiddly to construct. Ok it takes a couple of minutes, but that's a sacrifice I'm willing to make considering a)...

    Good idea for an out door grill?

    Yup Phil, I had been eyeing them up for ages and finally cracked a few months ago. It is a little heavier than I imagined, which I suppose in a way is no bad thing, it's easy to put together, and is very compact. Personally I am very pleased with it. The firebowl was a step too far...

    down sleeping bag bag

    Hi Chaps, I've got one massive luxury sleeping bag for when in the car/boat, and another lightweight tiny down bag for bushcrafting and the like. This Q regards the latter... I read a day or two ago that down bags should actually not be stored under compression, but loosely packed, which...

    Survival Weekend

    Jonesy mate I asked a similar question recently, and the thread is here: http://www.bushcraftuk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=21044 a few good ideas in there, and we actually tried one of them. Since you want a long drive it should be fine for you. We weren't completely on our own and did...

    can you recommend the best course ( Abroad)

    Apparently "woodsmoke" do some excellent courses both in the UK and overseas. My sister is planning to go on the Kalahari adventure, and she sent me their very nice brochure to take a look. No doubt a quick google will find their website. Haven't actually got any experience of them but they...

    Optimus or Primus (no transformers content!)??

    Thanks guys - all interesting stuff and an initiation into the world of stove collecting. I had never imagined it would be so popular! Now I know the answer to this really i suppose, as I guess it's the same as any other thing that you get a bug for, be it knives, cars, watches, cuff links or...
