Is it similar to a Flux Capacitor?
On serious side I have a mount, 1" ring, that holds a tac style flashlight (green light) with a tail cap pressure switch.
Tough part is being there when the hogs get there. If I quit at 10, the hogs come in at 11. If I quit at midnight the hogs come in at 1. :shock: All nighters are tougher as I get older!!

Why a green light rather than red or blue? I've never flashed at a critter, just wondering what the advantages are for any particular color?

I've never used a Photon, but I just sold a Pulsar N750 digital night vision sight. I just don't hunt hogs enough to justify the expense.

I've also got a green flashlight that has attributed to quite a few hogs over the years. They don't even look at the green light.

I've also used a red lens on a solar powered motion sensing security light, and hogs don't react negatively to that color either.
