Bright eyes or Pro light

I can choose between 21 volt bright eyes or a 21 volt pro light. Which is the best ?????????

Posted by Travis Eastman on 02-19-2009 01:18 AM:

Go PROLITE best customer service I have ever had on a light. Ole Bottlehead as BlueIce calls him will treat you right. Always been good to me.

I don't have either. One of the guys I hunt with has a Bright Eyes. About half the time he is in the dark and following someone. Another guy I hunt with has a Pro Light. He is the one we're always asking,"Shine your light right there" when we get to the tree. Soooo....You make the call.

I have had both

I have had the Bright Eyes 28 volt and I have the Prolite 28 volt one of the first ones Bottlehead Bollinger made. You see a lot of people were have problems blowing the bulbs in their when I have only blown one in the 3 yrs of so I have had it and I knew I had blown it because I flipped it up to the high side before it warmed up. This is one of the best lights I have ever had hands down and the customer service is second to none. Don't get me wrong the Brights Eyes lights are good lights not saying that and Ray is a Super Nice guy to deal with. Dealt with him for years but I love my Prolite. JMO!!!

well thats funny!!! i put my 21v up against another light i will not say who make its but the 21v k-lite was brighter than the 24v and put it up against their 21v and the k-lite 21v was brighter. all lights blow bulbs!! buy you a pro head and you wont half to buy any more bulbs

Posted by Will Walker on 02-19-2009 05:16 PM:

that is funny because theyre all bright and i understand they all blow bulbs, but my klight blew one every 3 nights and thats $4 every time. my service with mike was excellent but who wants to send their light in a couple times and then wait a week or 2 to get it back when you got dogs that need hunted. lets face it,arguing about a light is like arguing about which truck is better.

Posted by Maniac on 02-19-2009 05:19 PM:

buy to lites like me. and you wouldnt have that problem. you will have a back up

Posted by Will Walker on 02-19-2009 05:21 PM:

that sounds like the Brite eyes light I had, spent more time at the shop than a ford pinto! I don't know about the other brands but I have a blazer 21 and it has never even blew a bulb in four years

A dealer that sells Prolites, told me the same thing.

I use Prolites, Cajan lights, and have friends that use Bandit lights, and custom made suplier lights. They all blow bulbs, they all have good warranties, and they all are priced about the same. I kind of like the small battery pack, 21 volt lights.
Just buy the same kind your buddies have, then you can bragg or complain together,..... oh yeah, then you can borrow all their bulbs.
