Petzel headlamp, 3 aaa batteries. Works for what I need it to. If I need to beat an animal to death or see further than 50yds, I still pull out the 4D maglite.

Once I began using these lights . . . well, let me put it this way, I sold or gave away all of my other flashlights. One set of batteries can last me a season! The Main Beam is BRIGHT, even at the lower settings AND gives you a CLEAN field of light - NO annoying cast shadows.

If I can hijack this for a second...what about the same question but with an adustable flood? I've been looking for an affordable one to use as my hog light for at night. I have a mount for one I just need one that I can adjust how wide the flood is depending on the distance I plan to be shooting.

I love my SureFire P6, very high quality construction, but true, the batteries are expensive. A few good on-line sources if you buy in bulk.
BUT....
I REALLY love my Streamlight Ultra Stinger. It's not a carry around light. But for tracking deer at night or anything around the house or truck or camp, oustanding. It cost $125 and is rechargeable both AC and DC and goes forever on a charge. Really bright.

Today I bought a Streamlight ProTac 2AA. It will work fine for me. A big up-grade from my AA converted MiniMag.

I have a surefire that uses 2 cr123LED version... 100 lumens 1HR
Nice light, but... then a got a fenix headlamp using 1 AA... 3 levels perfect for bow hunting... 3 lumens for sneaking in/out of the stand... 97 lumens (over 2 hrs) on one AA over 2 CR123... Easy choice!!!
Then if needed I bought the mac daddy TK 41 with 8 AA batteries and a WHOPPING 800 Lumens...
I am a Fenix Fan!!!

Fenix...hands down. Get them at Brothers of the Bow website (Wensels) I bought one and loved it, then bought 3 more for my boys for birthday presents. They all love them also. If you misplace it, you will go into a panic from the thought of it actually being lost! For such a small unit they put of an incredible amount of light.....great for blood trailing after dark. Mike

Here's a youtube review on the RedLine light by NEBO. This guy should have gotten his ducks in a row before he started his review, but such as it is... here it is..
