Excellent Flash Light For Hunting
I bought small Coleman 115 Lumens flashlight this year for tracking in the dark. I has really worked great and puts out more light than I really need. Takes regular batteries (AAA) and has a good run time on those batteries. Below are the details on the light. All for Under $30.
The Coleman Max line up of flashlights offers superior performance at a tremendous value. The Multi-Color Max offers traditional white, night vision red and blood trail blue LEDs.

Look's like a great addition to the back pak!! I have been using the regular Mini-Mag lite for years, and have been wanting to get one of those blood trailer lites. Look's like you'd have the best of both worlds with that one!!!

great looking light.lights do act different.i have best lights and only use about 2 now.
i like those pen lights alot.
bulbs are all diffeent, thats secret.sometimes you can change bulds and make any light work better.we did it at work.
for climbing a tree in dark, i use hat lights.for walking in i like the PEN lights.
i also use knight/hale flashing light to find my stand in morning.i drilled out the beeper sound from it.why they would put beeper on light with no way of keeping it quite is beyond me.the remote should have 2 setting,1 for light and 1 for beeper.

Mini Maglite Upgrade
If you have a bunch of old Mini Maglites laying around like I do you might want to consider upgrading them to the current LED technology. I like the quality and durability of my mini mags and couldn't stand to part with 'em just because the old incandescent bulbs are now outdated. I did a video review of the Nite Ize LED and tailcap switch upgrades on my blog. I've been using them for about a month now and really like 'em. Here is a link to my review if you are interested http://pursuithunting.blogspot.com/2...-nite-ize.html
