Guys,
I just came out of the field with this new light. Here is my quick review. Let my preface this by saying that my eyes are not what they used to be, and I am often the last guy to see eyes shining while night hunting...
- The light is small and lightweight. At first, I thought that I would miss the handle (like what is on my Lightforce), but the small diameter of the light made it very easy to handle and scan with the light.
- At 100 & 200 yds, with the beam set on low and while using a green lens cover (red was unavailable at test time)the entire target, small reflectors that simulate eyes, was illuminated so that a body shot could have been taken.
- At 478 yds, the "eyes" were illuminated using the low setting and green cover
- While using no cover on low, all targets lit up very brightly up to the 478 yd target.
- While in the high setting, all targets were lit up brightly and I'd have to say that targets at greater distances would light up too. We simply ran out of space.
- The switch was quiet and very easy to operate
All in all, it was a real enlightening experience, and I look forward to seeing how hunting goes with this light in the fall.
