Primos night lights

[lone howler]

Anyone got any reviews on any of the Primos brand night lights? I was looking at the 350 yard 6 volt with the flip red cover.  I also seen this new LED one and had doubts about it reachin 100 yards.

I have the 250yd 6v light and it works real good.  That was on my shot gun.  I bought a Western river light for my 17 hmr and the lighter in my pocket was brighter.  So I have to switch the Primos light between guns for now.

The only trouble I have had with the 350yd. light is it not handling the recoil if on a shotgun. The LED light is nice and light weight with batteries being inside light. Compared to the 100 yard primos it is as bright but I would not say it is any brighter.Not sure how it will hold up under hunting conditions since I have not hunted with it only seen one.

The LED light is the third place prize in the  PPHA member vs. member hunt so if your not registered for the hunt yet make sure you do you may just get it .

Nice to hear the 250 Primos light works great. I helped a women out in Cabelas at Hamburg. She was packing her basket with Primos products.. She was going with the 350 yard light without a battery pack.  She  had a Cabelas Wildlife feeder battery to power the Primos light in her basket.. I told her all her gear was good but I did not think her husband would not like rigging the 350 light with a wildlife feeder battery. I showed her the 250 Primos light and that it came with a battery that would hook on his belt...
Um what battery do you use for the 350 Primos light? Do you use the 250 yard  battery for it?

I use the Wizard scope light most times on my scope and it works great....Most shots are not ever at 250 yards.. Maybe 100 to 150 so maybe just maybe the 350 light could be an over kill.  Unless it light up the predator at 100 yards well without scaring it away....
Of course what one should do when they illuminate an animal now that is a different story...Best to learn that by sitting with a group of PPHA hunters at a get together or via a phone con.....

Um what battery do you use for the 350 Primos light? Do you use the 250 yard  battery for it?

The 350 light is a 12v.  You can get a 12v battery from Cabelas and it comes with a charger.  You can also get 2 batteries w/charger for $49.99 from Cabelas.

Does the 350 yard light attach easy to the therminals of the Cabelas batteries?   What kind of jacks are on the end of the  350 yard light?  Male Jack, Female Jack , Alligator, etc.  I will have to go to the  Primos site and see what all these shooting lights SPECS reveal.

Looks like the prongs on the old Wizard lights......

The terms on the cabelas battery are your standard male/female flat connectors.

The 350 yard light also comes as a 6 volt. All 3 the 100 ,250 and 350 all can use the same battery.

That is good.  It would be better to have the 6 volt 350 then since you could change out lights to different guns and use the same battery...

I have 3 of the 350 yard lights. I like them they work out decent. I wish the battery would last longer.

I purchased  one of the Primos 250 yard 6 volt lights for Christmas...Only time will tell..If it turns out to be not quite the shooting light.. I will attach it to a 1" dowel or broom handle and use it for when I want to use a hand held light...

i ordered the 350 kit the other day, list price was 99.00 got 20 off for ordering it through bass pro.  should last all night when using it just as a shooting light. 

[Critterslayer51]

Using these lights for scanning purposes they do NOT last long...we used one for awhile that was not attached to the gun and just grabbed the bottom of the light and used it as a hand-held light...now as scott says, it should last all night if you're only using it as a scope mounted light...if you were going to use it for scanning, I would grab yourself some bulbs to switch it to a 12v source, or try finding at 6v batter with more amps...

 Im new to this sight,but ive been reading this forum, and night hunting for a while now, and i can say, i just took my first coyote last night using the primos 250 light. I will say, just like any light, the red lens really darkens the glow, so i wonder if getting the 350 might work a little bit better. Overall im happy with the primos 250 so far.
