Where abouts are you in Vic, maybe I could send you down a Wolfeyes and you can put them side by side and give us a review on the both.

I have a Wolf-Eye 260 with a swivel red lens cover and my son has a Zeus Fox Hunter which is a 250 lumen adjustable. They are very similar in size as per the pic. The Zeus was half the price of a Wolf-Eye but has yet to be field tested. The Wolf-Eye works a treat in the field on my 17HMR.

Sorry, this pic may be clearer. Still getting used to posting pics.

The Zeus Fox Hunter also came with the tale switch, battery, charger & barrel mount.

Looks like a good setup.

How much was that Zeus fox hunter kit Cammo? I notice on the Eagletac sight they have a 'weapons kit' that contains a mount and remote switch. Seems like great value at US$80 http://www.eagletac.com/flashlights/t100c2.html Has anyone seen or used said mount and switch?

Although it doesn't come with battery and charger like wolfeyes, as fenrig said in OP, they can be had for $20 from dealextreme.

Pity the eagletac store are out of stock, its birthday time for me and this falls within the budget and would get me in the game quite nicely!

Thanks for the tip landyman.

Quick question for everyone re mounting of these tactical torches, are there any concerns with mounting on the barrel? I'm thinking in terms of altering the rate of vibration a barrel might produce, perhaps affecting accuracy? I don't know if this is even a real thing or not but it was about the only concern I could think of besides changing the balance of the rifle.

Cheers,

I asked the same question on another forum and the overwhelming response was "yes it could cause accuracy issues" .. so I mounted it off the scope..
