Best lighted nock?

I have tried them all but Firenocks and like Nockturnals the best. I had some major issues with the Nock Out lighted nocks (bushing broke pushing the nock on inside the arrow ruining both the nock and arrow, sounded like a dry fire and I freaked) but that was right when they first released. They may have worked out the bugs now. I see Nockturnal released a universal copying that design but I won't be trying it.

Secondly, I've had just about every possible bad scenario happen with them on the shot...
Not light at all.
Turn off at impact.
Fly out at impact.
Stay on at impact and as animal runs off and nock turns off
Bad outta the package
Bad after one use
Won't turn off after use
Etc...Etc...Etc...
They suck the least though. Always buy an extra pack to replace the ones that don't work / stop working. Save receipt!

As Jeff said, if you shoot enough of them you will have some problems but other brands tend to have more problems. For some hunters a 3 pack will last a year plus because they don't shoot many animals with them. For some of us a 3 pack might not last 1 night of hog hunting.

I bought some ignitor nocks, haven't used them on an animal but shooting the target they have been ok.
I'm in the same boat as Jeff though, they pretty much all suck just another convienience product that sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. I shot a buck a few years ago with a brand new Lumenock and it went out as soon as it hit him

I've gone back and forth from regular nocks to nockturnals. I've decided seeing my arrow path is not worth the bad quality of nock and reliability/accuracy issues I've had with them. If I was filming I'd probably use one though. Any other time.. No way
