I'm sure there are 100s of opinions on this and the subject has been covered to death. I want to know if anyone has new opinions about hunting hogs at night and what light and color are you using? On bow or off, headlamp? With all the new things out there what do you like?

I made some lights from some 1 watt green led spotlights from oznium.com I put them in a housing that I found at Home Depot then mounted the housings on pvc pipe. Right now I just take them with me and stick them in the ground at the bottom of my stand and plug in a little 5ah battery. Now I know that they work I'm going to mount them on a 4x4 post so I can just bring my battery with me when I hunt. I've only used them twice, the first night I only saw deer and last Thursday I had about 10 pigs come in, neither the deer or hogs were bothered at all with the green LEDs shining on them.

Yeah it's light weight and portable, and a 5ah battery will run it all night. I'm going to mount some permanently at my hog feeder, and have another set that I can take with me for when I hunt bait piles.

I can't vouch for any other than sniper hawg lights.
Bought probably their lowest end bow light 4 or 5 years ago, probably around 125 dollars to my door. Has done me right every time I've ever brought it out. Outstanding light . I bought a 10 dollar bracket online that I can connect to my scopes if I want to use it on a rifle and can easily see out to 100 yds plus with it.
