$10? You can buy the thill light for $3.49/ea. plus the nocks, which is what about $.50/ea.
I made mine so that they turn on when I shoot, and then I can pull on the nock and shut them back off. Easy to make, a couple grains lighter than the lumenoks, and work just as well, if not better!

I agree with ya GMMAT - people keep forgeting about the time thing. I personally would love to try it - it seems like something I would enjoy doing in my free time. For others, not their cup of tea.

I'm wondering....for those of you who shoot a/c/c's....if you'll be able to fit the home made ones into those arrows. Lumenok apparently hasn't figured out a way to do it, yet. I say this because it's the only thing keeping me from totally switching over, right now.

With the lumenoks every animal I shoot with them they break. I have shot at least 9 or 10 hogs in the last couple of months, all passthru's every time the lumenoks broke? I love watching them fly but $10 a piece. I might try making some of those.
