Light reviews
I've always done fine with a decent flashlight or the better walmart headband lights ... I'm looking to upgrade and stop fooling with buying batteries or charging my AAA's.
I like the look and most likely dependability of the 6v belt light like I see Valley Creek has .... I know there are newer style cap lights and self contained battery lights like the TriTronics Razor ...
Anyone used the smaller LED belt lights ? Is there really anything wrong with them that would keep you from finding coon and not dying or un-coolness just because they aren't the latest and greatest ?
thanks
The Razor is really nice.... But I put it on the shelf once I saw a laser torch pro and ordered one the next day. I absolutely love it.
I will say though that I'm not too fond of the white light the LED outs out though. So they sent me an amber pop cover I like a lot. It could just be in my head but I believe the yellow tint on the cover helps to see break ups in the tree and limbs and such. I prefer it to the bright white. Plus Laser Torch are some good folks
crastyl lights
my buddy bought 1 this summer he really likes it has 3 settings showed it to me last nite while i was there hes taking my grand daughter to a trade day and hunt today i told him pick me up 1 i like it cause you can put it in your pocket if you want or on your belt its brighter than my 6 volt hot lite and dont weigh nothing esy for this ole man to carry my 1 buddy said he calls it a throw away light but im sure you can get a battery or parts if something goes wrong with it

My son has a valley creek pro cap light. He is 12 yrs old. Light is very bright. It also has 4 clicks of brightness.

I got the new Lazor Torch Pro, real nice light and super bright.
Nite Lite now sells a L.E.D light, I believe you can buy just the head and use it with your old battery pack or you can get the combo they sell.
Also there's a company called Surefire that sells some of the brightest hand held flashlights I've ever seen.
And the old tried and true MagLight has a 3 D cell L.E.D flashlight that's super bright and the batteries last forever. Best part is the cost. $30

My wife has the valley creek 6v. She can find coons just as well as me. You'll just have to charge it every night.
Try a BIG DOG Light
