Petzl Zipka Plus 2 Headlamp

The Petzl Zipka Plus 2 Headlamp features a retractable strap that makes it the ideal just-incase light. You can stick it in your pocket and won’t notice it until you need it. Plus, you can wrap this Petzl headlamp around your bike’s handlebar, around a tent pole, or around the branch on a tree to put light wherever you need it. The Zipka Plus 2 also features a focused LED bulb that gives you improved range for route finding and a low-level LED that saves tons of battery power.

Bottom Line: There when you need it.

It appears to me that the retractable strap would dig into your head and cause discomfort. Anyone have any experience with this headlamp?

Its actually surprisingly comfortable. The cord has just the right tension to hold it in place well but not enough to dig in to your skin. I think about it more as the just-in-case headlamp and messing around camp light. But its seen plenty of use descending complicated rocky terrain for hours on end too.

If I was going to buy a light that was more for constant use I'd buy one with a normal elastic strap.

It doesn't really seem to cause me any discomfort yet, but I have not had one for long. I have pretty think hair, which might effect this, and usually I wear a hat anyway.
