Sunfire ultra HD vs Bright Eyes Sniper

Getting ready to buy a new light, it's between the ultra and the sniper. I know they're both bright but which light do you guys really like. I know opinions will differ but I want that light that's gonna hold up and when you leave a tree you dont have to wonder. Any info is greatly appreciated.

I personally don't have either light, I've got the Boss hotspot 3d. I've hunted with the Sunfire and its super bright, but just going off of the LUX rating the sniper would be brighter at 125,000. Whether its the better light or not I don't know.

Lights

I was trying to make the same exact decision 24hrs ago between these two lights. Ended up ordering the HD just because I've heard nothing but good things about it. Not that I don't think the Sniper is any less of a light, just hadn't heard of it before I checked out the Vender Board and seen it there. Bright Eyes is a quality company, so I'm betting its a nice light. Plus the HD is built in my home state of Arkansas, had to give it a try. Good luck choosing one.

I bought the Sunfire HD in October and I love it. Very bright light that last a long time. I went on four hunts about 3-4 hrs each before I charged it. Even then I didn't have to charge it. I have the red led on mine and it floods the whole tree. The coon don't mind looking at the red led. Small light that is very well balanced. The owner is a great guy to work with. You won't be sorry with the Sunfire HD. ... JOE

To be fair Rays light is just hitting the market and there are around 3000 Hd's out there. Ray has been at this a long time and makes great products. I don't think you would go wrong with either one.

Bright eyes

Customer service at bright eyes is great. I bought two lights there last week. Great people, great products. I cant speak for the other company, but I really like bright eyes.
