Blood Tracking Light

[Jonathan_S]

Can anyone recommend a quality tracking light that they have used in a blood tracking situation?

I'm not worried about price but want something that works (imagine that) and I'm hesitant to make a purchase.

Save your money, they are just a gimmick.

A dollar store spray bottle, dollar store peroxide, and a decent flashlight.  much cheaper

Really? Darn, I was hoping for a nifty addition to my coyote, night hunting gear.

Buy one that works and send it to me.

I remember when the first blood tracking lights came out. I read some user reviews of them on Cabela's website. One posted that "Ray Charles could find my deer better than this $#@% light."

Yeah I'll be sure to do that   

I'm glad I asked, too bad Ray Charles isn't around to help.

I'm glad this came up, I had no idea they were a joke.

  I was looking at a light that costs over $100 and thought there were some that might do a pretty good job of showing red better than other colors on the spectrum

Get one of those UV lights like they use on Dateline to find blood and "other" bodily fluids in hotel comforters!  Out of the 5 guys that I personally know who have bought and used various types of "blood tracking lights", all 5 of them say that they are crap and do not work.  Online reviews tend to mirror that assessment.
