After doing a bunch of research I ended up going with the XLR 250, it was $160 shipped with just a red LED. The VRL-1 from what I can tell is basically the same light but I couldn't find it as readily available.

Got to take it out this past weekend, and holy crap is it bright. I set up along a fence line with a field in front and and woods 323 yards away. Pitch black, not a cloud in the sky I could outline an animal in the field. I couldn't make out the animal, which I do think was a coyote, but I could see its shape and especially its eyes.

I didn't take the shot because I didn't feel comfortable without being able to completely see the animal and I couldn't get it to come any closer. I think 200-250yards the coyote would have stuck out perfectly.
