    One of mine won't turn off. I slide the thing up and it will go off. Let it sit for about minute and I notice that it's like half lit up again. ( half as in brightness) this happened to me three times tonight. Got sick of trying to turn it off so it's still on in my case. Any suggestions or does anyone else have this problem?

    Had the same problem last year. I, too, would like to know if there's a fix.

    Their customer service is great. Let them know and they will probably send you a new one.

    I have also heard there customer service is great. I have been using them for a few years now & (knock on wood) have always had good luck with them.

    I won't be using any lighted nock other then Firenock. I've tried them all. Used the Nockturnals for 2 seasons and had mixed results.

    Love the Nocturnals. My friend and I both have had great success with these. Their customer service is 2nd to none. Last season my buddy shot a buck around November 18th. Arrow passed through but we couldn't find it in the daylight. He didn't hunt that stand again until December 15th when I shot my buck. Long story short as we were sitting that morning he text me from his stand before day break. He could see his arrow from his stand. Nock was still lit up almost a month later. The package says they are guaranteed for 72 hours. I would say they more then surpassed the 72 hour rating. As for the one that's getting stuck half way on. Call customer service I'm sure they will replace it. In the mean time give it a couple squirts of cam oil that you would use on your bow. Sometimes they get dirt and stuff stuck in them from raising and lowering your bow from your stand.

    Ive used nochturnals for a few seasons now and they have worked great. I always used red but my last pack of 3 i went with the blue. They worked and lit up just like they are supposed to, but you couldnt see the nock being on in bright day light. It was fine in low light conditions, but mid day couldnt see the blue light. Gunna switch back to the red nockturnals.

    I also just started using the Nockturnals this year. I bought a pack of the old style (Pre-Rage) and love 'em.

    I had the same experience with my doe. Dad has a bunch of the reds, i decided to try blues. They work real good at night/early morning, but can't see anything if the sun is up at all.
