Whether you're walking creek bottoms or calling predators at night and need light when it's time to shoot, no varmint will go unseen with Primos Nightblaster Scope Lights.
These scope lights allow you to have ample shooting light, without all the bulk from carrying a spot light. Simply attach the light to your scope and run the switch wire to wherever you feel most comfortable. From there, it is as simple as flipping the switch and taking aim. Available:

Nightblaster Max 350: Xenon 55-watt bulb delivers a piercing 350-yard beam. Beam-adjustment knob and stock-mounted switch. Includes 6-volt battery with nylon carrying case, 110-volt charger and red varmint lens. Available in standard Black or Advantage MAX-4 HD® camouflage. Weighs only 10 oz. Fits 1" scopes.
350-yard 12-volt: 350-yard light beam. 12-volt light that plugs into
any 12-volt receptacle. Battery not included. Available only in black.
I bought the 250 yard model. It works ok and allows you to see out to about 175 yds. However, you can't shoot that far as you can only see the eyes at that point. The light could be made of stronger material, especially the mounting system. Also, have another light to search with as this one will lose charge quickly. It works just fine for closer shots with a shotgun.
I use a Nightblaster 250 for coyotes at night in TX. I mounted the switch on the forend of my AR-15, then added a buttstock pouch to hold the battery on the stock (rather than hanging it on my belt). I also used a low 1" scope ring to mount the light to the scope, rather than the supplied factory clip, which helps keep the light exactly where I want it.
It's very lightweight and the controls are very convenient. The adjustable focus of the beam is a great option as well.
It's a little shorter range than promised, since at 250yrds pretty much all you can see is the glow off of a coyotes eyes, but 150-200 is definitely possible. (Without the red filter, it DOES reach 250).
Frankly, it's main competition is the ND subzero line of laser designators, which cost more 5-6 times as much as the primos models. For what it's worth, to me, owning both an ND4 and ND5, as well as the Nightblaster 250, the Nightblasters are a great alternative to those higher priced models.
I have the 350 yard light from optronics, which is the same exact light but without the Primos name. This light is great and makes night hunting better. You don't have to pack a handheld spotlight with you and when you shine something you are already on it. I have used it this winter and it has given me the best night season yet. With the red lens it gets about 150 - 200 yards and probably reaches 350 without the lens. The battery lasts about 2 - 3 nights, calling 4 - 5 stands a night. Also if everyone hunting has the light, then everyone is the shooter and can cover more area. So, yes I believe this light is worth it.
This is the second light I've purchaced. The 12 volt model is much better. We hunt from a permenant deer blind at night for feral hogs and the light is great. Also much lighter in weight. I use a small automotive battery for source power, I don't need portabilityand it stays charged for months. Multiple shooters can tap into the same battery.
