Hi all, maybe a stupid question here. I recently replaced an NRV pip on a Bialaddin 305, and all working fine now. When i took the NRV out there...
@Fireexit1 Cheers, but I'll leave it be, as I have a Butterfly which is easier on the retinas. The Hipolito seems brighter than the Petromax...
Been a busy day....... Dug out this AFC Ashflash 1022, and sorted a pump problem. This has hardly been used, and going well! [ATTACH]
I'm keeping this one as is....works very well! @steerpike451 The knob does have Bialaddin on it. The Glass Support has Vapalux etc. [ATTACH]
