lots of good brand belt lights out there, but i dont suggest Bright Eyes, customer service isnt near as good as it needs to be.

belt lights

buddy i will tell you what you will here of several lights on here. i have had sunburst eagle 2+2 for and used for probably the last 30+ years and no Doubt the are fairly heavy but they will last at least for 10 + years i have one now that is a 97 and it still is very bright. if you want something to last its a 2+2 not the new eagle the light weight they are worthless. sure the bright eyes and the other lights are just as bright but i do not think they will outlast the 2+2 eagle. has any one else on here got a belt light that is 10 years or older?????

How do the 21 volt Blazer compare to the 28 volt Blazer ?
Is there a considerable amount of difference in brightness ?

I called them about a week and a half ago and im not afraid to say the woman that answered the phone wasnt very friendly at all. If you want business you certainly dont answer the phone and talk the way she did.

Almost all of these lights are made with the same parts from the same company. Customer service is where you need to look first and VALLEY CREEK WILL NOT BE BEAT in that catagory!! FACTS

competition light

we own 2 8amp 17 volt belt lights and you cannot run them down
i can hunt 6 nights without a charge and thats using the spot light
the spot lights are the brightest ive seen and the head will get down dim on first click so the coons look good
the boys at competetion will treat you very well
i highly recomend them

Bright Eyes

I have had nothing but great service from my lights and the people there. In fact, Christmas Eve, 2005, Ray Conrad came out of a dove field to ensure I would have a light for my son for Christmas. To me, that is customer service, above and beyond. I can't see me buying anything else. You can see the reason.

i personally like the bright eyes lights, but since i have never used their belt lights i can't say much for them. i have owned a sunburst eagle 2+2 and would recommend them. they are heavy lights and thats why i got rid of mine because it hurt my back, but as far as good lights that will last over the years, a sunbrust eagle 2+2 is the way to go in my opinion.
