oblivitar Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 I was looking into getting a kill light for my 22-250 and was looking around and didn't realize how much they were. I remember somebody on these forums used to make some pretty good ones but i cant find the post about them. Just wondering what lights people recommend.

MrGroundhog Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 I just picked up a kit from boondock outdoors.. It's the wicked hunting light w400.. I did some research before purchasing and I really like the kit contents as well as the light performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elmo Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Reading the threads, I think a couple of people have gotten the light from Shawnhu and seem to have written positive reviews on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

CuseHunter Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 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. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawnhu Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 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.
