      Nockturnals! If you get a little bood in the switch, just poor a little Diet Coke on it and it's bubble it right out.

          Glad to hear all the good feedback on the Nocktunals. I just bought a pack to try out.

            I bought nockturnals from midwayusa.com last week on clearance for 12.99 a pack. Going to give them a shot.

              For the price Noctunals cannot be beat. Stewarts has a simple and effective design. Just like everything after a few years, most product in the market all work to a certain extend or it will be out of business. Then the product life cycles goes to refinement and precision (high dollars) and simple and no thrill (budget priced).

              There is cheaper way to make lighted nock even if one need a field changeable battery. That is why Firenock LLC offer Lightning Nock which is a Chinese made version of Firenock. Not everyone need a Mercedes S class to go to work. But for someone who had the money and like the refinement, it is indeed a matter of choice and want. For most casual archer, Lightning Nock for $12.95 each is a really good performance and great bang for the buck. As a matter of fact, it can easily do 600 shots and the nocks, and battery are interchangeable with Firenock. For $8.00, noctunals is one of the best, especially for AL arrow with uni-busihing. I send quite a few customers his way as I think he had the best for that application.

              Is MB S65 that much better than a Honda Civic Coupe at 55 mph. For those who have the money, the answer is obvious YES. It is a $160,000 vehicle compare to $10,000. I personally believe the lighted nock line is about refinement for the next few years as MOST are quite reliable now. Sort of like the bows we have now. Ask yourself this question, does a $1600.00 bow really shot that much better than a $300.00 bow. You have your answer and it is indeed a very personal choice, and no longer a reliability or performance issues. It is about want and need, isn't it. Now ask yourself this question, how precise is Firenock's nock compare to anyone? I do not spend close to $500,000.00 on my moulds alone for the last 4 years for no reason. You get what you pay for. 0.005mm tolerance are not cheap!

                      nockturnals. I've shot quite a few animals with them, i prefer the reds to the greens but they both work great.

                      i've also used hydrogen peroxide and it cleans the blood perfectly.

                        Nockturnals are on my arrows and I have not cussed them one time. Unlike any other I have ever used.

                          I just bought some Nockturnals and like them.

                          I have a question for experienced users. What is the best tool for turning them off?

                          I used a knife point and it seems like that will tear them up over time.

                            You can turn them off? I thought they were disposable

                            When on the range I just gently use the tip of my field point. I usually have a field point arra in my hunting quiver too, so I use it then also.

                              FND, I do not recommend using any sharp tool to turn them off. I would hate to see anything but hog blood on your arrows.

                              I carry a finish nail with a duck tape "flag" on one end in my pack. I will either use that or a field tip.

                              After a few times of turning them off, they get easier to to work with.
