Default A light in the forest

Or has anyone tried either the Lumenok which I can't find their website or the Tracer which I did find their website. If anyone has tried these I need a yah or nay on the result not being able to see well in low light the little buggers should show up if they come on a guy on the Bass Pro site said the lumenoks he tried wouldn't even stay lit after he shot them any information would be appreciated.

I also hunger for info on the luminox or lighted bolts for crossbows. Has anyone here tried them and do them work well enough for hunting, not effecting accuracy or any bad thing like that? If this has been discussed here before, I guess I just missed it or was drunk or something. LOL

I would like to have one for the bolt thatI shoot in the ground to uncock my Parker X-bow. It is a pain to get down from the tree and have to look for your bolt that is stuck in the ground some where.

I tried the lumenok, it is hard to turn off and sometimes it would turn on coming out of the bow and go off on impact with the target. I haven't tried the tracer yet but i like the idea of a magnet turning it on and off,
the magnet mounts on the bow and when the arrow passes it the light comes on.

Lumanock's website is www.burtcoyote.com. They work as advertised. I got the Beman thunderbolts which they sell on their websites. The arrows weigh in @ 418grains with the lumanock and a 100grain point.
