Best light on the Market

Just started back in the coon hounds. Been out of it for 20+ years. Shopping for a new light. Belt light w/hand held spot light. Would also like the walking light on side of battery like the old eagle sunburst lights. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

I think you will regret not getting a cap light, really lightens the load and no cord to fight.

Can't stand wearing a hard hat. Wear one all day long at work. Have one now with the light attached to the helmet and don't like it.

Oh no, Steve is into coonhounds. Guys if this gentleman trains a coonhound anything like his beagles then they will be winners, that's for sure. Really fine man.
Steve I wear a hard hat all day at my job too. I bought myself a bright eyes Flame on a soft cover with a liner, and feels nothing like my hard hat. Plus I just got a Boss 3D Hotspot with red and green lights with the bump cap. Used it last night. Great great light.

Hand down...Bright Eyes Trifecta. Been submerged under water many times for many hours and has never failed. Switch to flood, spot or red. I dont care for the cap lights.

Lights

The Boss light came from Kevin Rainwater, you might know him.
the flame came from Bright Eyes lights, 785-545-6378
I have a bright eyes belt light with a 5100 head on it but dont like the cord now that i have used the cap lights.

What BRAND of hound do you have now, i stayed the same just bigger beagles, a lot bigger. lol

See you around.
