Slow Glow Hunting Lights

Slow Glow Hunting Light

HUNTING WILD PIGS and exotic game at night is one of the most fun types of hunting out there! It opens up year-round hunting and is a new challenge for veteran sportsman and new hunters alike. Slow Glow Hunting Lights are a Texas-Made, hand-built product that makes hunting at night insanely fun.  Unlike traditional feeder lights, Slow Glow Lights are designed to be mounted 5 feet off the ground, 20 feet away from your hunting area.  This allows an entire hunting area to be well lit, instead of a small circle directly under your feeder.

Slow Glow automatically turns on at dusk and stays on all night at a dull 5% intensity, training game to the presence of a dull non-invasive light in the area. When the light detects motion, the Slow Glow effect is triggered. After detecting motion, the light slowly increases intensity to 60% over a 2-minute period to avoid spooking game.  If you need more light, or want to activate the light manually, the included remote control slowly brings the light to 100% intensity from up to 1,000 yards away!

The beauty of the Slow Glow is using the light like an alarm.  It’s quite obvious from several hundred yards away if your light has been triggered by motion, so you’re not forced to sit in a blind all night waiting on something to show up. Sit back a few hundred yards and wait for the trees to light up! Your light provides plenty of light to make sniper shots from several hundred yards away, or bow-hunters can stalk in from downwind and behind the light to get crazy close shots with a bow.

Slow Glow comes with an unconditional 1-year warranty and will be hand-built by the Slow Glow Texas family. For more information, visit  www.SlowGlow.com
