1. Recovery - Yes
2. Predator/Hog hunting at night - Yes

As for the scouting and hunting... I'm not sure how entirely useful that would be during the daylight. If you're in the daylight, you should be able to see the animal anyway, right?

Now, it would be pretty sweet to call predators in the pitch black and be able to see them running with no lights. Or to do the "night stalk" as we call it on the Brazos River in Texas for pigs.
