Hunter Lites

Didn't see the brand I use. My vote would be for a Hunter Lite.

Hunter Lights

Randy, I agree with you. Best light I've ever owned. Richard does a heck of a job building these lights. Those of you who haven't heard of Hunter lights and might be interested just drop me a note and I'll get you in contact with him.

No problem Scotty, You might want to try one, I've had mine for quite awhile with minimal problems, I've owned just about every brand made at one point and time, some are good some are bad. I like the Bandit lights and their owners very well.

Best Light

I started with a wheat light hated it, then I had a 20 volt Coonbuster it's a great light just a little heavy, Now I use a 28 volt Cajun belt light and there is no comparison

I think Action lights are pretty hard to beat. Seems like that is what nearly everyone I know uses here in middle TN anyways. With Christmas getting ever so close I certainly hope jolly oh fatso brings me one, but until then I guess I'll settle for my nightlite which aint bad for a lil over a hundred bucks. Has done me quite good for a few years now.

My question is how long does all these lights work without having to be serviced?

Cajun

I've got a Cajun Rambo that was bought new in September of 1987. I have never had one problem with it. The battery pack understandably bowed out last October and I put a new Ni-MH pack in it. I gurantee that it has been used over twice as many nights than it has stayed home. I haven't even changed the bulb in 3 years!!!

hunt_english:

I was talking to the wife of the man that makes the Foggy Top Lights, and I was tellin her about my Bright Eyes. I'll admit that if i don't turn my BE to dim when I turn it on the next time, most of the time it will blow a bulb because the head dosent have time to warm up.

She said absolutely under no circumstances no matter where you took them theirs DID NOT blow bulbs.

Who knows.

its not a belt lite

but i dont see how you can beat the 21 volt blazer lite priced at 250 dollars. ive been very pleased with mine and havent seen anything brighter in the woods yet who i have hunted with. at a little over 2 pounds the weight is very manageable. im no authority on lites, but by going by the voltage and a reputable name, i havent seen many touch that deal
