Other colours are available for special uses, including blue for the police. A duo-directional lens can be supplied as an alternative to a single-directional wide beam.
The lamp is of spun metal, while the battery housing is of yellow stove-enamelled 20g steel, the complete unit being fully protected from the weather. A tripod mounting attachment is fitted at the rear for use with a variety of tripods supplied as optional extras.
