Only lights ive ever seen or known to come with strobe switches are the old nite lites...

Never saw the point...i think they were supposed to make coon look....

The nightrazor has a strobe mode. Supposedly mimics the flicker from the old carbides which a lot of people says made them look. From my experience a coon either looks or he doesnt. I guess some of the gadgets can help sometimes but usually if it looks at the strobe it looks if you switch it back to the reg light. Probably wouldnt bother most people but I have always been real light sensitive and certain kinds of light along with strobes especially in complete darkness really hurts my eyes and definitely will give me a headache if its on long enough. I prefer using the lowest setting and a red bulb or pop cover. So low that you cant hardly even see the light yourself but those eyes will be like trailer reflectors!

My valley creek light has a strobe on it and yes they work

they work at selling lights, thats all I have seen them do,
the best light is one you can turn down low enought that the coon will look at without blinding it.

Coon.......

In my opinion a coon will either look, or they don't, regardless of what color of light, or if it flickers or not.......just my thoughts.
