    Don Barrow Light - Map Magnifier Info

    Don Barrow - View through a Don Barrow Light Pro-model showing it's magnificationMoulded in black PVC with a holding handle to locate in position on the map. All models have a milled internal groove to accept any of the Don Barrow Graticule Baseplates. The 'standard B01 supply' 1:50,000 Baseplate simply clips into the lower groove, to provide a printed Graticule which enables you to either plot Map References or measure distances on the map, see below for all other ScaLED Options. All Pro-models are fitted with a 113mm dia x 1.5 +/- magnification (50+/-% larger) Crystal Glass Plano Convex Lens. The various models have different switching and bulb fitments.

    For replacement bulbs, you now have a choice of either 5 Watt Soft White LED or 5 Watt Soft Amber LED Bulbs or the universally available cheap to replace 5 Watt Festoon Bulbs, all available from my DB Spares page.

    When making comparisons with other so-called Map Magnifiers, always check whether they are fitted with either an Acrylic or Plastic lens, they are more susceptable to marking with scratches. And furthermore, what if a bulb blows, can you replace it quickly and cheaply when competing on an event ?

    BE SENSIBLE ! make sure you know what you are buying ! Endeavour to look professional with all the right equipment. Designed, developed and tested over the years with devastating results.


    1000s sold Worldwide, check out what the Experts use ! The BEST available.

    Also supplied to Governmental Depts, Police Authorities, British Armed Services, Stamp & Coin Collectors or wherever a low vision hand held lighted lamp magnification is required.

    Tips on using DB Light Map magnifiers

    • Always switch on at least 20 Minutes before use, this allows the lens to de-mist if condensation has occurred
    • Don't be tempted to cut a hole in the side of the Magnifier body, this let's the light shine out directly into your drivers face
    • Plotting Map References, looking through the Lens, set up the Romer on the exact spot, affix your eyes through the Romer onto the Map
    • Tilt the Map Magnifier and with eyes still affixed on the exact spot, mark your Map, this needs practise to perfect
    • Always make sure you have the correct Baseplates to suit the Maps you are using
    • Remove the protective film from all new Baseplates
    • Use the divisions on the Reflector Scale to measure short distances - see below
    • 0.05 or 1/20th of a Mile on 1:25,000 Maps
    • 0.1 or 1/10th of a Mile on 1:50,000 Maps
    • 0.3 or 3/10ths of a Klm on 1:100,000 IGN Maps
    • 0.5 or 5/10ths of a kLm on 1:150,000 Maps
    • 0.6 or 6/10ths of a Klm on 1:200,000 Maps
    • Replace the flex after every 20 Rallies, the inner wires tend to snap inside the rubber grommet
    • Spare Bulbs are always essential, they never blow when you carry spares !
