Great review bud. I've been looking at this lighting system for a while and will get for an upgrade of the 100 model. I have found with the full circle lights they can obstruct a little at the bottom when retrieving darts. 👍🏼🎯

@DartsReviewChannel 2 года назад

Thanks, I am still using mine so that says something, I also like the Illumina for its neatness and the fact it works rather well for a short horizontal light :)

@@DartsReviewChannel Hello again Darren! The Torus 270 arrived last week and it's such a perfect light. Especially the 90° cut out I believe is the main reason to make this purchase. I've played full circle dartboard lighting systems and every time I was feeling uncomfortable when taking the darts out from the 19, 3 or 17. Also, when you're not too tall and reach for the upper twenties, it's a lot easier. With the Torus 270 that's just a breeze. Thanks again for your helpful review! Now it's all about a replacement for my 3 year old Blade 5....so I'll check your dartboard recommendations....

Thanks! So many its hard to remember them all but if you like a lot of grip and a front weighted style then try Harrows Predators and Mission Spiro

@FatOssssss 3 года назад

Just for educational purpose, the plug adaptor that came on the transformer was for North America. I am pretty sure you could put the legs between the board and the surround without using the brackets and it would probably hold in place juste fine. Great review of a nice product, thanks!

@DartsReviewChannel 3 года назад

Thanks for the info mate! Yeah it will stick in with just the legs if the surround is tight enough. Still prefer to use the brackets for extra security though as I am clumsy lol Thanks, glad you liked the review :)

Hey Darren great review, do you think the clamps would work on a Granboard 132 or 3s/Dash? Or is the size of those boards way off for it to work?

@DartsReviewChannel 2 года назад

I just tried them on the 132 and the clamps are too big. Only way you could fit them is if you had some way of reducing the size, maybe pieces of rubber or thick cardboard but not sure how secure it would be doing that.

@PHeron1977 3 года назад

Great review, Darren. I've got the Winmau Plasma Light. Obviously takes a bit longer to install because of drilling holes in the wall but board rotation is completely hassle free. If only I could saw a section off the bottom of the light ring 😕 🤣

Would you think this could work upside down . I have limited space above my board and a regular 360 light won’t clear but I think this could work. Just wondering if it would still work as well

@davidcummins1108 3 года назад

Brilliant review Darren. While it has its pros and cons I think I’ll stick to my target corona light. I find it’s very handy taking it on and off the board (as I have a cabinet and board combo) with the magnetic brackets sticking to the board. The brackets on the mission ring take more time to assemble it seems.

@DartsReviewChannel 3 года назад

Thanks David, yeah the Corona is still more easy to set up and remove and replace when needed, I am hoping the Torus will be longer lasting for me though as its made of metal, the Corona did not last me very long.

Thanks for the review! I went with the Winmau Plasma. Maybe I'm old-school, but I'm used to the warm white light of a traditional light. I can't take the blue white light of the Torus, it hurts my eyes. And the support arms just had to be located right next to double 16, double 2, and double 20, exactly where I don't want them to be. Double 2 champion ftw!

Hi mate! Hope u are well. I just finished putting the Torus around my surround but I couldn't clip it to my board as the clippings were too small for my Winmau Blade 5 Dual Core board. It still works without the clippings - i.e. it is still quite strong - but I'm worried the lighting system could fall down after a specific period of time... would it be fine mate?

@DartsReviewChannel 3 года назад

I am good thanks! So have you just put the legs inbetween the board and surround? If its tight enough it should be ok. You could try tying some rope/string/wire/elastic around the board and legs to keep it more secure though.

Felt the pain from knee crunch in that sigh after lol. Videos of these dropping like flies now haha. I really like it though it could be a pain when rotating having to remove clamps each time, seems way more sturdier than corona though. Been looking for light lately, seems interesting no one came up with idea with a hole somewhere for easier pulling of darts, actually makes much sense that way.

@DartsReviewChannel 3 года назад

lol yeah its not a pleasant sound lol A lot more durable than the Corona but the Corona was easier to set up, I think this has a little better light output though. Like that gap actually, was not sure about it at first but makes sense and light is still strong enough :)

@ranvedsticon2304 3 года назад

@@DartsReviewChannel Yeah, seems great all together. I was thinking of getting one from winmau but now I might wait when this comes to my country. Edit: also came to my mind now. Do you think the brackets might come in way with blade's screws on the back that hold the board in place? But I guess even if they do I could always rotate it in a way they don't get in way with each other

@DartsReviewChannel 3 года назад

its a bit of a pain like I said but you only need to do that once, after that you only rotate the board may be once a week so dont need to use the guide again, just unclip and re-position the brackets and then slot it in, may take a few minutes but not difficult just a little less easier than some of the others out there, but as it seems more durable then the others and considering my Corona fell apart after a few months I think I can live with that :)
