With the red lens you can see and identify your target to about 300 yards with a 3x9 scope. Although I use a 4.5x14. They are the best light available but they are not cheap. The light package costs $235.00 and comes with a charger, battery pack with dimmer switch with adjustable beam control, one scope and one shotgun mount, and a battery sling. I've tried several other lights but nothing compares to the lightforce. Boondock Outdoors now makes a halo shield for the front of the light. It's about $18.00.

With the light kept on how long will it stay lit and be able to make out critters at "300 yards"?

Whitefeather, it depends on how cold it is and if you keep it oh high beam all of the time. I usually make it threw the night with one battery. If if's real cold, I will use my back up as well. I bought my back up at Radio Shack for 30 bucks. Buy the best, you won,t regret it.

5 or 6 hours. If you keep bit dim most of the time till it's time to shoot. Like I said, I keep a spare battery in the truck. Even on dim, the light has a tight beam and it picks up eyes a long way off. Will you be at the expo? If so, I will bring mine so you can see how it works.
