I have never used lit nocks due to the steep price for something that will take a beating.  Always figured it would change my arrow flight too.

Then I found these on Amazon.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0759BFKQ7?tag=arfcom00-20

Just got them yesterday, and shot about 40 times last night.
No change to POI.  Very bright, and very cool.   Could be a key item in finding a downed elk too.

Already ordered a dozen more.

Can you have them nocked on the string and not have them light up?

As long as you nock carefully.  I have no issues doing it, the on button is buried pretty deep.  Been shooting some of my older ones this spring and they still work great.  I have yet to have one fail other than nock strikes.

I’m still using those old ones out back and they still work.  I have new ones on the hunting arrows .

I hate the cost and added weight of lighted nocks. I went with a bright wrap and bright fletching.

I want to say they are 16 grains heavier.  Tiny sight adjustment.
After sticking a bull at sunset I like them.

I've had great luck with the Chinese lighted nocks. First bought from Ebay, but now I'd probably just get them direct from AliExpress.

They fly just fine and they do the same job as the expensive ones (which are likely made in the same factory and re-branded to an American name).

Probably even cheaper than what I’m buying on Amazon and the same model.
The lumenock types that were 10-14 bucks ea can’t be any better.
