BobGlen Extreme Angler Registered: 02/17/10 Posts: 1608 Loc: Ind.	Makes awesome setup for kayak fishing to bank, pier, boat fishing. The last two pictures show the light connected to the 12v plug and plugged in. If you want info on the battery pack it is a Caframo 12 volt battery pack 12 volt battery pack. It runs on 8 D cell batteries. And has a built in 12v socket. It also includes a shoulder strap for easy carrying. Note: The Caframo retails from $24.00 to $39.00 Do a goggle search. --------------------------------------------------- Report on the results of the battery test from the above post: ================================================= Well I ran a test on how long it lasts on the battery pack. I used a multimeter to check the voltage at full charge. It had 13 volts starting. I plugged the light in and went to work. 8 hours later I get home and the light is still going! And it's just as bright as when I left. I get out the multimeter again and it reads 11 volts! Now I'm no math genius but the equates to 1 volt lost every 4 hours. The pack has a self test light and I pressed it and it read as still being good. I would say this would easily run 24 hours on the battery pack. I am very impressed. I highly recommend using this battery pack with all the light. I guess I should also mention I am testing this with the 612 light. With that said, if used with the the smaller Reel lights it will last even longer!

Now for the best part we have another member on CDC that's looking to change his current setup and I told him about your 612's and 712's but I told him before he buys he is welcome to see your 612 in action me and him will be going on a night stalk I hope he gets his new lights from you!!! strmwalker _________________________ LINKS Water Temperature Guide for Crappie www.reel-lites.com

BobGlen Extreme Angler Registered: 02/17/10 Posts: 1608 Loc: Ind.	Ok, I tried out something new tonight and it was the coolest thing ever.. I fished the docks while it was raining with a new product called Reel Lites . It's a 612 led submersible light with 2600 lumen s and I can truly say that it lights up everything. The plankton and minnows showed up within minutes. Had my first fish hooked on in less than five minutes. We fished for 2 hours and at one time, we were catching whites one after another. It's really neat to see the fish swimming around the green light. Ended up catching walleye, LMB, drum, and tons of whites. You have to check them out.

"We have had a couple different ones from Cabalas and Academy, but I really like the one we ordered from Reel Lites He makes them with LEDs instead of fluorescent. It was much brighter than the comparable fluorescent ones. My cousin actually ordered the light that we are using. We plan on getting a couple more. They are much brighter and much more efficient. Great Product!" Adam Hueske Member _________________________ LINKS Water Temperature Guide for Crappie www.reel-lites.com
