Coyote Hunting near Spokane

well i am game. but who has the light?

Have you guys seen the two new lights just hitting the market?  Both are LED, extremely bright (ID animals 200 to 300 yards away!)  Burn times for the Predator light is 20 hours on low and 4 hours on High and for the Smart Light 32 hours on low and 20 hours on High.  No heavy battery packs and no wires.  The Predator Light is about the size of a hockey puck and the Smart Light is basically a hat with a small battery pack on the back and the headlamp on the front.  So far as I can see the only "issue" with them so far is they have yet to produce a red or amber lense for them.  They keep saying any day.  The Preator light is $269 and the Smart Light is $150.

Use a candle and a mirror J/K that would be to bright.

How about you guys buy the light and I will run it for you?  I wish I could afford one but not going to happen...

i think i would spend 20 more and get the primos one that mounts directly to your scope! this way if your out on your own you dont need to hold the light!

I had a scope mounted one and didn't like it.  Had a wicked glare that really messed with seeing through the scope.

hmmm well you could try that one at bass pro. do you want to do a morning hunt or a night hunt?

[SpokaneSlayer]

Do you mean in the evening?  Either or works for me.  Got the go ahead from the wife.  I'll give you a call a little later.  I'm off work early.

The cyclops is also sold at Cabela's, however if you decide to get it I have two places that sell them for around $43, I think one even has free shipping.  However the problem with these and MOST lights is during cold weather it can really cut the burn time down.  I'm betting the Cyclops in weather like we're going to have this weekend, MIGHT get you two hours.   If you want the link to the $40ish Cyclops let me know and I'll post them.

Decided to go with the Smart Light and the hand help spot light.  The reviews on the spot light are that it's better then the cyclops.  I should have it in a couple of days and I'll let you know what I think.  Gotta love the burn times on these.  12 hours+ on High and 30 hours+ on low for the Smart Light and 1 hour+ on High and 10 hours+ on low for the hand held spotlight.
