Kill light for coyotes


Recommended Posts

It's not my style to comment on other vendors' products, but I must on these. A customer of mine msged me on my Facebook page and then later called me to discuss his situation with the (3) UniqueFire 802 that he purchased. He asked if I would repair his LED modules. I quoted him the price for the repair of the (3) LED modules, then later asked why he needed them repaired. He then told me he purchased them brand new, and burnt out in a matter of minutes. This was his txt msg to me after he purchased a kit from me.

"This thing is awesome. It feels awesome. It looks awesome. I am so pleased. I'm gonna take it around to the local sporting good shops and show them. Try and get u out there!!! There is nothing on the shelves like this here."

As for the second link posted above, well, there's no such thing as a red LED emitter in the XP-G class. I think that says it all.

Buyers beware.

I have done lots of research on lights for predator hunting. I will back up shawnhu.... Bit the bullet and buy once, if you cheap-out, you will likely have to keep buying new ones.

I paid like $6 for a cree Zoomable light (white emitter). I love it and use it as it really have unbelievable throw for the price. That said, I've gone through 3 of them as they love to just work one day then not work the next.

I myself am trying to make a DIY Light. I want to use a cree q5 red emitter, I'm just having trouble finding a body that is Zoomable and will fit that size/shape emitter.

It's hard, and problematic to fit a predator light in an aspherical lens housing. I've used them in the past, and find that a deep quality conical reflector out performs an aspherical lens. The conical highly polished aluminum reflector in a high quality torch is virtually maintenance free and trouble free, especially when you need it to work on the field.

The main advantage to the aspherical lens is the ability to change the beam pattern from wide, to narrow. Unfortunately, most if not all, aspherical lens are made of plastic, which will scratch over time and rob precious lumens and lux. My system is the only one in the market that isn't aspherical, but adjustment to the beam pattern is still possible, without the plastic lens.
