I would be raising this at the highest level! A coroner would be most interested in the person who is preventing the appropriate level of protection for fire fighters.

This is crazy stuff!!!!!

And wildy off topic :|

okay to get things back on the railroad tracks, IM lookin for a helmet torch.

Can someone give me a definete brand name and price on the one to get, ie one that doesnt lop side the helmet and has a good light but not too expensive.  Preferably from FARA at Blackwood.  Cheers.

Buy me one while your there  :-D


Seen an LED torch from repco the other day that is similar in size to the mini mags that are used in the BA sets.  Seem liked a good replacement for them if anyone wanted to go down that track.  It was a bit shorter, metal case and had like 9 leds.

Gday,

What LED torches are people using?

I did have one (its now somewhere in the Dergholm Forest) that was a small clip on plastic thing from fire & rescue - seemed pretty good.  Thought i would ask the question before rushing out and buying another one.

Just wondering what experiance people have had with certain models.
Hi all,
1st post, what helmet are you using ?
It depends on waht you need the torch for, Pelican have a great unit, although heavy, its both xenon and LED's in the same head. Foxfury make a great unit, but expensive
