I don't use easton arrows but I do use the nockturnals with carbon express blue streaks.
If you take the Bully Dog nock collar off it doesnt effect flight as there not much of a increase in wieght and they are a far better set up then the luminocks. As I've had numerous Luminocks fail after hitting there intended target. They just dont handle the impact very well. I have shot 5-6 critters withthe nockturnals and no problems to report. I use the zeon fusion vanes aswell as the nockturnals. The zeon help show you your flight but the lighted nock helps to find you arrow. The Luminocks are heavy and unreliable but thats just my opinion.

Bass Pro sells them and ships as well.

for the Easton Power Flight you would need the STD model, not the X series or Gold Tip. the STD is simply a .246 internal diameter which also works for Carbon Express and can fit Gold Tip shafts as well, however there is a .245 model for Gold Tip shafts.

BPS has them in singles ($11.99cdn), triples ($31.99cdn) and 6 packs ($64.99cdn) in Red (1, 3, 6 pk) Green (1, 3, 6 pk) Blue (1, 3 pk) and White (1, 3pk).

Hope that helps.

I've used them all, the Carbon Xpress ones weren't worth the plastic used to make them. The Eastons and Nockturnals worked very reliably though. The lumenocks worked like a charm four or five times but then stopped working altogether.

The best part of the Easton ones is that they don't turn on accidently so you aren't flashing your presence to the entire forest without your knowledge.
