Anybody have one of these? Just wondering what you guys think of this light. I thank the guys who answered my post about a newspotlight buy my limit is $100.00. If i had a commercial use i could see spending more but this is for recreational use. I read a few reviews on line about the night blaster and most did not like the battery life so i was looking at this model.

Thanks again.

You can pick up these sorts of lights for less than $100 (not sure about this particular brand though). They are insanely bright and have excellent throw but I find them too big and heavy and battery life is just ridiculously short. They're just not practical. I don't think this particular brand is any different.

If you want something that bright (OK not quite that bright) with decent runtime plus smaller and lighter, the best value light I can think of is the Brightstar Darkbuster HID http://www.leisurepro.com/Prod/BLRDBL.html
Its $284 though.
