Tackle companies must be avin a laff

[Adam Ditchburn]

We all know it but why do so many companies do this, I appreciate the extra cost of having a logo with an increase in MOQ's from China, I am not picking on fox but come on

Fox Halo LT-136 Lantern – Chapmans Angling


Now look at this with postage and batteries

BULB Camping Lantern - Outdoor Gear Shop - Alpkit

By the way a great little lamp, small but kicks out a decent light, two settings well made etc.

The camping shops can offer some outstanding value Adam, i do look around when i need stuff like that.

The fox LT100 is Fantastic at £15 and essential

You doubles yer money and you takes yer chance!

They all do it to some degree but some more than others?

[Nigel Gray]

Question is, which one came first....

 

[Carl McGuire]

I work in Manchester, right amongst the outdoors shops. I get gear from there, but avoid the cheap **** from places like Milletts (now closed!). They have great sales on once the festival and summer camping seasons are over too.

having had the fox halo i would steer clear of them or even a look alike,its the batteries that become the expensive bit. once saw one for sale on a carp forum, only got 2 replys. 1st " be cheaper to run a rolls " 2nd from seller " if your not interested keep your nose out ".
