Back to Tilley's! Anyway, I rang Tilley to ask advise about respraying the small copper tank. They said tank doesn't get hot so just rib down and use a car primer / paint spray, then laquer and hey presto and new Tilley lamp!

I don't think I'd like to look a 9lb eel in the eye by the light of anything brighter than a tealight.

If you can't see the light at the end of the tunnel, just keep going till you go round the bend.

 On the brightness issue ,having seen a relatives  twin (small) mantled coleman in operation I would say my tilley is brighter when its working at its best .

Ray, if you take a look at my website you'll see that we already catch plenty of eels... along with pike and zander.

It's the thought of wrestling with a 9lb wriggly monster that appeals to me (those of you who are not anglers can clear your dirty, smutty minds right now!!!LOL).

And anyway, Tilley is the the brightest... just.
