burmjohn Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 Rechargeable Spotlights - Suggestions? I'm going to pull the trigger soon on one, maybe tonight. I was looking at this : http://www.cabelas.com/product/Hunting/Lights/Spotlights|/pc/104791680/c/104743080/sc/104599080/ThorCyclops-Sirius-9-Watt-LED-Spotlight/747292.uts?destination=%2Fcatalog%2Fbrowse.cmd%3FN%3D1100174 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WNYBuckHunter Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 I have that same light. I use it for predator hunting. Its nice because it has 2 different modes, flood and spot. I use the flood light mode to pick up eye shine, then hit the spot light once they are in range to make the shot. It will last for a whole night of hunting. I havent really had time to spotlight deer this year, so I havent tried it for that. It is a nice size, not too big and light weight, so its not a burden to carry or have in the car. The one complaint I have is how the red filter attaches. It does not stay in place and falls off as soon as you move the light. Theres a simple fix though, just use a wrap of electrical tape and its all set. I dont really even use my big 2 million candlepower incandescent light anymore.

martin Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 I just ordered the predator light. It can fit into your pocket,charge last forever.It has 3 different levels of light. The led light is all you need,not a red cover. It does cost $300 but by the time you get batteries and purchase different lights for what ever reason,you will have exceeded that amount...Check it out..

wztirem Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 I bought a rechargeable 12 volt LED Light from Cabelas for about 30 bucks (including accessories), its lightweight and serves my purpose well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, I know you said you have not used it for spotlighting, however any idea how far the "usable / viewable" beam goes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WNYBuckHunter Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 I can see a pretty good ways with it. In my back yard it lights up the bushes 100 yards away very well. Ive never really tested it. Ill have to do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
