To say if the spot is noticeably brighter, depends on what you're comparing it to. It isn't noticeably brighter than last years Viper but it is noticeably brighter than the Fuzion.

The walk light is a double flood, very bright with wide coverage.

It also has double red flood, double amber flood, and a green laser pointer.

so so

i purchased the Heatseeker and have used it for ten nites. I compare it to my old light, the Reaper double death.It is definately lighter and more comfortable. I believe the main spot is a little brighter,very bright. Very disapointed in the colors though. Not as bright as the reaper and the red is a spot ,not a flood. I prefer the flood so i can use it as a walk light.To change the colors you have a toogle switch, much better than the reaper.

I sent mine back and got the viper xl. I did not care for the walklight it flooded too much for me I like to shine the tree with it and it just wasn’t cutting it.

Hunting buddy of mine came over and hunted with me the other night. He had last years XL and I had the new heatseaker. I like the heatseaker better. The heatseaker walk light floods out more so definitely not going to shine many trees with it but it flooded out more so for me it lights up more area. My heatseaker was natural led and his was the bright white. Seemed about the same in brightness but the natural picked out the coon fur easier. The heatseaker has amber and I like that to walk with or to just keep on low while standing around. I can’t remember if the reds were any different but the red on the heatseaker is super bright and a person could find a coon with it without it looking on trees with no leaf’s.
