    Good price for what it is.

    That said, I'm not a fan of LED lights, after using an LED headlamp for overnight bushwalks with 3 AAAs that supposedly last 150 hours.

    Maybe it's just the reflector but the headlamp casts a pretty uneven light and as noted earlier has an uneven colour cast. Not good for close looking at anything but good enough to confirm that the noise outside the tent is a possum having a go at the food in the backpak.
    Cheers, Ern

    Hi everyone,

    I looked everywhere in this area including woolworths, and the only thing I've found was 2 types of goose neck led lamps at Bunnings. One was a black one, same battery system, long neck also and a small 2" diameter head/reflector with 6 led lights on it. The other was the one bellow in the pic, some manufacturer and style as the ones we are looking for, but this one has a detachable torch piece but with a small reflector diameter head of 30mm.
    I got this last one for $19.95, while the other black one was $29.95.

    I wouldn't mind to have at least one of the ones chipman got, so if anyone that can have access to them, I would be thankful if someone could get it and post it to me.
    I'm even prepared, if that is the persons choice to provide the value of item and freight in turning timbers at their choice. Actually, if that person is ok with it, I would get 2 of those lights, saving in freight.
    Anyone, please...!

    Cheers

    What, no one is prepare to help me out with this one?
    If the timber option is not wanted, as soon as I get the bank details of the person that will do this for me, the money transfer will be made immediately. Again I would Tale 2 lights to save on the freight. Or another thing is, is someone knows who got them, just pass their phone number to me and I will deal direct, no problems...!

    Default Availability: Melbourne Eastern Suburbs

    If any more of you are interested in getting one of these LED lights, I noticed that the SAFEWAY in Lilydale (Stocklands or Market store) has put another box of them on the shelves this evening. (I haven't seen them at any other Safeway around here)

    So if you live in the area, you should be able to get one there (While stocks last as they say)

    No connection or interest in Safeway blah, blah blah etc

    Cheers

    Confidence, the feeling you have before you fully understand the situation.
