Bright Eyes Lights ?

Does anyone here know anything about these lights ? I maybe going to buy one, checking burn time, service, brightness, etc. I am looking at the 21 volt belt-light. Thanks and if it is negative, just send me a PM.

I really like the light weight, I have never had a minute of trouble with the light as far as mechanical, but one thing I don't like about the 21 volt ( camo ) light, is the brightness knob switch is very, very easy to turn and if you are walking in thick brush it will rub on limbs and move on you... it gets aggrevating having to adjust the brightness 4 or 5 times on a trip to a tree, but other than that I really like mine.....

I'm on my second one (traded for an upgrade). They are great lights, plenty of burn time, light weight to carry. The only problem I ever had is if you don't let it warm up on the low end for atlest 30 seconds, mine will blow the bulb every time when you switch it to high.

I have had 4 of them

I have the 28 volt belt light at this time. I really am pleased with it. I have never had one moments trouble with any of my box lights from Bright Eyes. I had to put a spring behind the switch so it made it harder to turn up because as you walk through the woods it was turning the light up real fast and blowing the bulbs. Since doing this I have used the same bulb for almost a year now. Hope this helps.

I love mine. I think it is the dominator. The 21V one that has 40 hrs of burn time. I hunted the first two weeks of kill season without charging it. I've blown a couple of bulbs, but usually only if I don't give it the 20 min. of burn time on low after a full charge.

I would buy another if I needed, but I don't forsee mine wearing out anytime soon.

That would be the only ploblem I have had with mine. It can be annoying.

I've got the 21 volt terminator. I'ts a great light. I had the 7 volt intimadator and it was a fantastic light for the money. It would be great for a young kid. I liked it for my own light but I'm kind of old school. Sometimes they won't look and you need a light that will burn the hair off of them and the terminator will do it. It's a little more than I need but like I said, I was doing some horse trading and wound up with it. It works great for spot lighting coyotes too.

I had an Exterminator 10V that was just fine. I personally don't like the Rheo switch, but thats just me. If I were buying one of their lights, I would probably get that little 1.3 lb deal. i have see a couple fellas hunting with them and that things is tiny. i looked it up, it is called the Assisinator. 16 hours on the low, 2 on the high. 21V

My son's has been prone to blowing fuses, other than that he likes it real well.

Bright Eyes lights are Great

I’ve owned several different brands of hunting lights throughout my coonhunting career and I would have to say that I’ve been completely satisfied with Bright Eyes lights. I don’t think you would go wrong with this brand of light.

Posted by T. Knox on 11-24-2005 02:42 PM:

Thanks

Josh and everyone else. I think I will try one and see for my self. Thanks again.
