Title: Hot lights
Post by: foxtrot on December 17, 2011, 04:10:33 PM

If there was a red Led light available with 1400 lumen's and could run all night on one lite weight battery for a couple hundred bucks would you buy one?

Is the light led and can you dim the light? How light is a light weight battery?

I would have to see it in action.  The 1400 lumen doent impress me.  I realy dislike that unit of measure for flashlights.  A 100 watt light bulb would be close to that or over.

It is a head light with a remote battery pack which can be attached to a belt or attached to a hat but will burn all night without charging.I'm still working out the details and will keep you informed.Brightness second to none.

Like I said before, led lights are new to predator hunting and we are going to see many new lights to mess with. I am interested on how this light throws it,s beam and if it can attach to a gun. It would be nice if the beam would throw far yet still have plenty of side light to cover a wider area when scanning. Is there cords to mess with?

I agree with the rest that lumen output is useless in telling how bright it is.  most are inflated.  a picture beside a well known led light or other light would be better to me then a lumen output rating.

The light is a corded light similar to a coon hunters light but much lighter in weight.Dimmable Red Leds.Its still in the very early stages so I'm hesitant to say much more about it.I was just interested to see if there was any interest.I know many don't like the idea of a cord and I understand but everyone has there own style of hunting.
