Best Light source for tracking Blood???

I'd say a cordless rechargeable spotlight would get my vote as tops followed closely by the Coleman lantern.
Blue lenses or lights suck! And the LED flashlights are not much better in my experience.

I use a mini-maglight if I'm pretty sure where it went down (heard or seen). I go back to my truck for the BIG maglight (5 D cell) if I'm not sure where it is.

The double mantle coleman lantern is the best light source I've ever used. It just seems to make the blood almost glow for some reason. They really do work well.

A Coleman Lantern is by far the best; apparently it is the blue spector that allows the blood to effervess. Last year I bought a Princeton Tec LED and I'm looking forward to trying it [it's bright and has a blue aura.].



. You can buy a packet of 6 candles for about R2.00 (about $0.30) Zippo's are a bit more expensive out here though.....
