I need something for spottin in the woods

[fredx]

When I was a teenager back in the '70's all of us young red necks use to keep the ole Q- Beam in our trucks for spottin animal and such.
Has anything like that been improved on? I live WAY out in the stix and drive around alot and prefer something like that.

Lot of options there. What sorta budget you dealing w/ and do you have any dealbreaking preference on country of origin?

What size you thinking of. There are plenty of handheld, pocketable spotters these days, still some boxlights too, but the latter isn't gonna be a glovebox type deal.

Probably something that I can plug in with a cord
I know its hard to avoid imported stuff
Budget is $200 or there abouts
