They only identify the route to the target, and help to locate the arrow. They could be useful for identifying the arrows tracking after release should it be fishing side to side.

as long as the weight of the batteries don't cause the weight of the arrow to sh*t back to far, you should be fine using them.  You want the weight forward on the arrow for best flight.
