I have never seen any that allow you to replace the battery? I have used the Lumanocks for 3-4 years now and LOVE them!!!!!! All my hunting arrows have them.

I bought the tracer noks this year, I like them better. But I still use them both.

i use green lights that work great with my green transparent nocks.
Also don't use a cut off nock for inside the arrow, 1/4" wooden dowel cut to 1/4" long pushed in with a drop of glue dripped down onto it works great. Last one I made I actually used a pencil eraser into the shaft. I also don't drill out the end of my nocks. My green ones are plenty bright.

Can find the Thill or Rod "n" Bob lights in green, red, or orange/yellow.

I saw replacement batteries for them at Fleet Farm. Can't imagine not using a Luminok after seeing how well they work...no doubts at all about where you hit the deer.

Yeah, I've heard from others that they're more reliable than Luminocks and easier to 'reset'. Might give them a try some time.

As a P&Y member I think It's a dumb rule but I'm thinking the reason Is Is that all electronics on bows are Illegal so that's why the luminocs are as well. Kind of a "band one thing you better band everything type of deal".
