Haven't tried these lighted nocks and I probably won't because I bought some firenocks last year and they are the best I have used to date.

Or you could just make your own. They are pretty inexpensive and work great.

I have use Lumenoks in the past- don't care for them. I had 3 nocks split down the middle during shooting, one shot resulted in arrow deflection costing me a nice buck. Won't ever use them again, I had a dozen of them and threw them all in the trash.

I now use the Easton Tracer nocks- They light up immediately once passing the magnet and blink after a few seconds. They have an on/off activation feature which has to be activated before initialuse by holding the arrow over the magnet until it blinks then everytime the nock passes the magnet it illuminates. The blinking light is alot easier to pick up with your eyes. I had 2 break after shooting 2 deer this past year, the light lit up allowing me to see exactly where the arrow hit but then went out. Both shots were pass through's so even if they stayed lit up they wouldn't have helped me find my deer. I contacted Easton and told them of the issue, they replaced them as soon as I sent them to them.

I agree with this forum. Don't waste your money. They never would work for me and I am also using Carbon Express Maxima arrows. They are terrible.
