what a great light. It has been the envy of everyone I've climbed and camped with. So much better than all of my friends BD or Petzel lights. Super long range on the spot light and the flood lights are perfect for hikking climbing cooking reading. cool that it has the red lights on back but have not used that. I guess if you where on a bike it would be ideal. Perfect light for most everything.

This lamp is wicked bright. I use this for biking, hiking, and climbing. It is great for everything I've needed it for so far. The three red led's on the back are also quite bright. Also, it has quite a comfortable headband.

One word: WOW. This light is so bright compared to anything else I've used. I imagine some other Petzl products are brighter, but then you delve into the realm of halogens and xenon lamps. This lamp is also ridiculously lightweight for being so powerful and the only weight comes from the 3 AAs. One slight worry is that it isnt waterproof. I've yet to test it in the rain.

Is this thing made by God? I'm not sure... but, what I can tell you is that it is THE brightest light I have ever seen. Comparable to the headlights on my Subaru. I actually tried driving with my headlights off and the headlamp on. It worked. Anyways, this thing is absolutely wonderful and the battery life is superb. A little heavier than some headlamps but well worth it because of it's great output and battery life. Again... wonderful!

Then I got one of these TX1's!!

They are simply the brightest thing I have ever worn on my head. There is no comparision.

My favorite feature is that it has a flood mode, a spot beam, and you can use the two in conjunction together.

The first batteries I used in it lasted the better part of a year.

This is my main light for everything, and the spot beam is perfect for grilling oh so perfect steaks in the dark.

I almost hate to say it, but the TX1 is a steal at this price, I would've paid more!!

I love this headlamp, while it may be bigger and heavier then some other ones out there, it is well worth the money. It is one of the brightest lamps I have seen. I've used it for backpacking, ice climbing and a midnight run. Overall this is a great headlamp for the money, while still being a little heavy.

i have spent several fun filled nights burning my camp buddy's eyes out with this thing.

Everyone thinks they have a great headlamp, until I turn this one on. Then they all get lamp envy.

only downfall is that it is a little heavy for light backpacking. But I take it anyways because now that I have tried it, nothing else will do.
