Borderlord 10 Posted February 28, 2018 Can anyone give me a positive ID on this. And would it be possible to let me know the correct way to open it to replace the battery. Many thanks Borderlord Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
marvinthemartian 11 Posted February 28, 2018 It's a Bardic Lamp, that's all I know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tarland 10 Posted February 28, 2018 Its a Bardic. The base plate comes off by releasing the spring catch on each side - push the black tab towards the base and lift the wire loop over the ridge on the edge of the base plate. I have a 3 slot battery carrier in mine that takes 1.5V D type cells. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BlueBelle 15 Posted February 28, 2018 79 Railway Sqn RCT & Wksp REME in the 70s also had them in BAOR as did the train crew and REME repair team of the British Berlin Military Train "The Berliner". Their versions switched to red and green light also, for obvious reasons, perhaps. The slot frame on the back of the lamp played a part in their usefulness. Manufacture by Chloride Bardic Ltd, once upon a time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
