When I first got into the sport, I listened to several older people talk about Nite Lite as the premier hound hunting company. I spent way too much money with them and the only product I purchased from them that did what is was supposed to was a hat, and nothing else.

Their products are Chinese made junk.

Their customer service is piss poor at best.

I honestly cannot say enough bad things about that company.

There are plenty other good companies, that sell American made products that they will stand behind, to choose from. Nite Lite sold out quality to greed, and there is no reason to do business with them.

I have two Nite Lite Head models and have not a problem in 20 Years with either light and have had great customer service. I would buy from them anytime.

Don't buy a Nite Lite product!
Way too many coonhunters developing, testing, and actually using their own light to be giving your hard-earned cash to a business that has forsaken the coonhunter. Ain't a hunter one that works for them, their quality control is sub-standard, and any light they put on the market is either Chinese junk or twenty years behind the competition's technology.

Look at it this way, would you buy a truck bulit by a plumber? A television in a fruitstand? That's exactly what you're doing when you buy from Nite Lite. Buying a product built by people that don't know how it is gonna be used, sold by someone that's never strapped a light on, and warrantied by people who don't know your name.
Not for me...

Extreme LED

I bought a EXTREME LED from night light and its great. Its is brighter than my k light G2 and weighs way less. This is the best light i have ever owned. I have also noticed that Night Light sponsors alot of UKC hunts

Pretty sure you got some bad info. Nite Lite doesn't sponsor anything for us and we run a club in the same town they're in. They have donated stuff in the past, but it was like pulling teeth to get it, and they usually gave us refurbs.
They gave us three lights once, and only one of the three worked. It was kinda embarrassing to have hunters show up to compete for a broke, used light...
