I currently have a 15w actinic skinner trap which is battery operated and a 125w MV, which lives and runs at Strumpshaw Fen RSPB Reserve. However I hope to do more trapping in my garden next year. An MV would be too bright for various reasons but I do want something I can plug into mains for ease.
so... Is it worth purchasing the twin 30w actinic mains set up? Anyone got any good pointers? I have read that the catch is approaching that of an MV, is this really true? I would really appreciate comments from those that have seen these in action.
I have never really got on with actinic before, but quadrupling the wattage and being able to run from mains, meaning no more charging of batteries has got me tempted.
Thanks for the advice,
