I was interested to see if anybody has used one and what there thoughtd were. I have used the original rhino beam which is OK but not great IMO. I would be using a phone or a Canon G6

Going to ditch the Coleman lantern, 4 large batteries! Looking for something like this, seen it has been discontinued.

What's are all you tech experts using. I notice Trakker do one very similar that I like the look of. Ideally bank stick adaptor to support photography and a Bivvi light too?

Anything better

I like the look of the Fox one. I notice they done another one now, £60 with a power bank built in, not really what I'm after

Does it spread light well enough to cover catfish properly? Or is it a narrowish beam?

Looks decent. To be fair the only thing that put me off was the size, looks small and was concerned about how much light it would kick out, good price though

The one i have got has a very good IP rating so I can just leave it outside the tent all the time, remote too, wellies on, light on

Ulanzi ones are fine -great for money and can be linked if needed. Rhino's are same!
I bought 2 -can use each side of frame to get full coverage of fish.
Are you sure?
