I hunted with Tyler Bowman the other night. He hunted with his new Boss light and I hunted with my new Sunfire Mini HD. We couldn't tell any difference in the brightness of the two lights. The Boss in 110,000 LUX and the Mini is rated at 70,000 LUX but some of the Mini's are testing at 90,000 LUX. From what me and Tyler compared, the advantage of the Mini is that it only weighs 16 ounces and the Boss light is about 9 ounces heavier. The advantage of the Boss light was that it had 2 colored LED's and the Mini only has 1 colored LED. Also, if I remember correctly, the Boss had 5 clicks where as the Mini only had 4 clicks for the brightness adjustment. I also bought a Sunfire Spotlight which is rated at 140,000 LUX. There is also very little difference in the brightness between my Mini and the Spotlight to the point that is almost undetectable. What I found out is that once the reading get up to the 100,000 LUX rating, the human eye can't detect much difference if any. One thing for sure, the light companies are putting out some super products now a days. Compared to the Wheat lights and Mine Spots that I started out with these new lights are like the difference between night and day. lol.
