Normally I hunt with a hand held lightforce mounted to a swivel. I've replaced the factory curly cord as it was designed to give enough resistance to reduce the voltage at the Globe to just below 12 volts in order to increase globe life.
With the heavier wiring the globe can get the full 13.8v volts when the batteries are full charged.
The globes definitely burnout much faster but it's a fair tradeoff for a noticeably brighter light.
I keep several spare globes in the vehicle.

I recently bought a LED ryobi +one spotlight.
I didn't intend on hunting with it.
It can run without a battery using the supplied Cigg plug 12v charging cord making it extremely light. It's output is phenomenal!
So far I've only spotted it at a possum, the possum refused to look it it a second time.
It will be interesting to see if other animal's don't like it, I know I don't, it actually hurts to look anywhere near it, I'm sure it would damage eyes.
