Anyone have any experience with these? It's considered a no glow black flash but chasingame claims it's really more of a real low glow because the leds can be view with ease at 6 feet. Price looks good but I want as black flash as I can get within a resonable price range.

I have several of them. I can see nothing from these, even in a totally black room. I guess some people might be able to see a glow from them (younger eyes than mine) but I would vigorously deny the claim of "the LEDs can be viewed with ease at 6 feet." I can see nothing at 0 feet in a zero light environment.
This is my first season using the VH200B (because they are new this year), so I can't comment on reliability, but I have experienced no failures (yet) and no glitches what-so-ever. I love the fact that 12 lithium AAs will last a full season (6 months) and probably last a full year.
I like the night-time illumination, and like the quality of the night-time images compared to other similar models, but the night images are a touch grainy (although they are sharper/crisper than other similar models). What I especially like is the ability to plug in a black-flash flash extender and have the VH200B unit run the flash extender (settings on the parent camera unit controls the flash extender). And the Uway black-flash flash extender will REALLY throw some black light. Although the images aren't crystal clear at great distance, I can see a deer, and tell if it is a buck or doe, at well over 100 feet at night with the flash extender.
Other things I like about the camera are the viewing screen and on-screen menu set-up.
Things I don't like about the camera are the limitation of a maximum of 3 pictures in burst-mode, and the difficulty of using the live "view through the camera" for set-up. It does not work as intended.
I will ABSOLUTELY be buying more of these units.
