{Stus-List} Neat PFD light

[cscheaffer at comcast.net]

Hey Dennis, 

That Fox 40 light looks worthwhile though the stats I read on your link, were 1 mile visibility and 150 hrs on strobe.  That's still good for the money.  Do they sell a better model?

I was wandering around Bass Pro Shop tonight and found a really neat light to attach to a PFD.  It's a Guardian LED Light by Fox 40 (also search "Adventure Lights").  It was $15US.  See:

It's a strobe or a steady light.  You have to unscrew the lens and flip the battery over to change function.  That's a bit impractical if you are overboard.  The light claims to be visible for 3 miles and last for 250 hours in strobe mode and is waterproof to 100 feet.  I admit, it's pretty bright here in the house. 

I have a couple of the ACR PFD lights and ACR strobe.  Those each have burn times of only 8 hours and a visible range of only 2 miles.  This Fox 40 light is much lighter and less bulky than either of the ACR's.  I'm inclined to switch over to the Fox 40.
