I keep a Surefire on the nightstand next to the Kimber. Great light for putting lots of light on a subject. For hunting, my main carry light is a Petzl Zipka plus. Very versatile light that weighs next to nothing and takes up no room in a pack or pocket. Will run a very long time if needed, has several intensity levels and can be used anywhere. The Surefire has it's place but, with 60 minutes of run time, it's somewhat limited for the long walk out of the mountain back to camp.Also, it's super bright light will ruin your night vision if you're trying to use it in short bursts while walking out. Just my $.02

im a big advocate of a good flashlight for hunting. i carry a big 4 dcell maglight for tracking because it is almost useless trying to track a wounded animal in the dark with a little AA flashlight. the mini mags are great too and know maglight has an led adaptor for them. for about 5 bucks you can pick one up almost anywhere and it will turn your minimag into a three led flashlight.

I like the Surefire brands. I use the E2 Executive, and it’s wonderful. I haven’t had any complaints, a high quality flashlight.

Surefire all the way! I have a 8NX Commander and a G2. If you can see it with either of those, you probably don't need to see it!

I use the Streamlight Scorpion and this is hands down the brightest light I have seen! I also use CatsEyes on the brim of my hat for walking in and out of the woods as well as up and down my trees. Very useful because it frees up you hands!
The Batteries on the CatsEyes last a very long time! The Scorps Batteries go quicker than a AAA light, if used alot. I use it more for a tracking light!

A liitle prop for surefire. I also have the commander 8nx and the charger went bad causing the batteries to last only about 5 mins each. I called surefire and explained my problem, which was unknown to me at the time, and they told me to send the whole unit in and they would take care of it. I explained to the guy that it was about 5 years old and he simply stated "send it in and we will take care of it". About 2 weeks later a new unit arrived with no questions asked. After service like that I will never buy another brand.

I carry a mini-mag, but I don't use it, I like walking inthe dark. For tracking I come back with my coleman lantern, doesn't get much brighter than that!
