I know this topic is as old as bread but my light is about shot & I'm looking to buy a new one. What's the brightest out there now? I'm leaning towards the Sunspot Inferno.

The Reaper double death is getting great reviews. Guys say it's the brightest yet. I don't have experience with it though.

The Reaper was the Brightest, Yep it's True---
Now they have the Double Death Reaper, I don't have one yet but I do have one on its way---But there is No doubt it is THE BRIGHTEST LIGHT that Money can Buy !!!!!
Don't Buy another & Hope it's Brighter---Because it won't be.
The Absolute Best Walklight you will find...!!!
The Regular Reaper or the Double Death will Make you Happy...!!!

If you have never owned a Coonhunting Light, then there are several you would be Happy with---But skip all that and go to the Top with a Reaper or Double Death...!!

I am like that Insurance Commercial ---I know a thing or two, because I have seen a thing or two...!!!

I just got a new sunspot inferno the other day. It is a very nice light. I also have a sunspot horizon that I was hunting with before I received the inferno. these sunspot lights can take a beating and are very bright. Awesome walking lights on the inferno. Sunspot are very dependable and the owner is easy to get in touch with. After hunting with sunspot lights for several years, I have no desire to try anything else.

Bright LED white,that blends all dark colors together at night?
Or 'yellow' soft white that you can tell colors at night?

There is huge difference is bright lights if the 'color' isn't right for
coon hunting.Bright white sucks at night w/leaves on.

Big Dog makes a great light. Very light plenty bright and the best color for me. The balance is perfect and If you can't find the coon with a big dog light it's not there.

I received my Reaper Double Death on Thursday......
Got to Hunt with it Saturday-----WOW, what a Light....!!!
The Amber & Red are Outstanding on this Light
The Walklight is Outstanding
The Main Spot is Outstanding

Mine is mounted on the Hybrid Soft Cap, Balanced Great & Very Comfortable .

This Light is in a Class of its own.

Boss and big dog are good companies..

Best Buy I've found is Super star lights from Hillsboro Ohio.. $180 with 2 colors and it is BRIGHT! Balanced pretty well and holds charge as good or better than others I've had!

Several options for good lights out there today. Boss, Sunspot, Big Dog, Superior, Bright Eyes, all great lights. You just gotta try them out and see which one is best for you. What puts the Reaper Double Death at the top for me is the main beam. I want a light that has a good white walk light, and two colors like red and amber. Sunspot has a great walk light and two colors but it's main beam is the soft white color. I know a lot of guys like that but I don't. I cant see detail nearly as well in big tall trees in the winter time with the soft white light. I like a bright white main beam and the Double Death has that along with the other options that I mentioned above.

Where the Reaper Lights excel beyond other Lights is their Walklight .....it doesn't get any better than the Reaper.

You mentioned the Super Star Lights......I have never heard of them, must be something New ?
Where can anyone find some info on them ?
Thanks

There are several light builders that represent our sport very well .I see them donate lights at alot of hunts to be given away .but I can't walk away or turn my head at a lifetime warranty.I'm running the sunspot mini and I have no problem finding coon in any tree .no toggle switches no runway lights mounted on the head. just one coondog and a 70000 lux light and a lifetime warranty

It doesn't have a walk light setting. 4 clicks of white light and one click each of red/amber.

That's about the only thing I've seen that's any different than other lights
