New from Kimber: Led Lights

**Rich Lucibella** · June 3, 2004, 10:40 AM

I don't often do product promos. But, Kimber quietly introduced two LED lights last year that are a must see.

The Scout is a dual hadlamp and the Eclipse is a single, about twice the size of the Photon. Having used these in the hunting field, deer stand and cockpit, all I can say is "WOW"! I think these may be the greatest advancement in personal lights in years.

The Scout comes with Headband and Hat/Shirt clip (White Light Only). The Eclipse comes with quick detach ring and Hat/Shirt clip (White/Red/Blue/Green). In both cases the lights are extremely bright with 5 position switches- 3 for intensity, 1 for slow blink and 1 for fast blink. Both are waterproof.

The design is impeccable, with the clip, when folded, covering the button to assure is isn't activated in your luggage. Priced at $21.95 and $14.95, I'll never buy another Photon again.

If I sound excited, I am. I just purchased 6 more at full retail! The official announcement of these was only made last month and the website is still pretty basic when it comes to images:

A second vote of confidence for the Kimber LED lights.

I'm something of a light "junkie, and while I thought they were pretty cool, I found out how good they were the second night after I acquired them: Oh-dark-thirty hours, country road with no ambient light and a flat tire. Clipped the Scout to my cap and had the flat changed in record time.
