I can't understand why you would want peripheral light?
That was one thing that attracted me to the NM800 - the lack of
peripheral light. I like as little spill as possible from the
light in order not to spook the quarry, and obviously if you
need a wider beam with the NM you can adjust the focus.
Please elaborate sharpshooter as to why you want peripheral
light. Is it purely for spotting?
Al.

so basically what youre saying is that the olight can be used
for both scanning and shooting, whereas the nm is only useful
for illuminating the target through the scope??

got any links to the olight? and how well do the batteries last?
wouldnt mind seeing one some time, though i still like the nd3
on the rifle for illuminating the target :-\

looks good, what sort of range you getting with it? ie how far
can you fully see with it when scanning - mean does it
illuminate the whole field out to say, 200 yards, etc, or does
it only pick up eyes after 100, etc?
i had one of these a year or two ago, thought it would be great
for scanning but it was a double edged sword; lit the whole
field (up to 300 yards) as if it was daylight, but took about 10
seconds to warm up to full power, also couldnt put red film over
it like i usually do, torch gt that hot after a while that it
melted it ffs!!
