Get a Wicked Lights 402ZF. Itll pick eyes up over 600 yards. With a good scope you can ID animals at 300

At $350, it's not worth it to me. I have an XLR250 and a couple of made in China red and green led flashlights that give me plenty of light out to 200 yds. All of them put together didn't cost what the Fire Eye does and still leaves room to buy more. Bottom line though, is if it is worth it to you, it doesn't matter what I think.

Fire eye is a very versatile and neat light. 4 colors, rehostat, 1/4 turn zoom. Great battery life. Worth the money for all the options. As said above is it worth it to you.

I have used almost all the above mentioned lights over the years.
The Fire Eye is now what I use for scanning and the Coyote light mounted on my weapon.
Both are very high quality US made products. To me having products I can count on is very important.
