now after repairing over 1200 led "hunting lights" as well as HID, halogen etc there is a reason. halogen and HID have a huge infra red spectrum which especially on rabbit makes them stare down the beam and startled. i did some tests and put an IR filter on a led light and my night vision just wouldnt know if it was switched on or not.
i just fitted a single IR LED to a 7 LED spotlight for a customer and he says it works wonders.
i could go into it further but most people would think its a boring subject. PM me if you want more info
