Great update on the Zipka

Petzl Zipka Plus 2 Headlamp

Petzl Zipka Plus 2 Headlamp

Rating for this product: 5 December 1, 2011

My camping buddy and I both had the old version of the Zipka by Petzl...he had his for 5+ years before he lost it and bought the new version this year with the red light. I'm hoping I lose mine so I can justify the new one with the red light as well. It's great for keeping your night vision intact while lighting the nearby area for your task at hand. The LED lights are super bright and will reach out into the darkness 30-40 feet.

I use mine while running during the winter months. The light is also great for increasing your visibility. You can use it when you are working on your jeep and it's great because you don't have to worry about your son not holding the flashlight where you are looking, it will be spot on wherever you look. Getting up in your attic will never be easier because you don't have to hold on to that pesky flashlight any more.

There's so many uses for this light. I carry it in my bag when I travel just in case, and the retractable strap works great. It greatly reduces the size and I've never had a problem with it biting into my skin. I have a HUGE head and there's plenty of room to spare . The trick to using this and not binding in your hair is to remove it by grabbing the back plate and the front light when removing. If you just pull the light off by grabbing the front lens, it will likely bind in your hair, but that's just common sense.

NOW THAT I'VE TESTED IT

Great for camping and hiking in the dark. No wide, sweaty band around your head to make you hot or create pressure on your skull. I've even used this on occasion for recreational trail riding at night on my bike or even jogging. Very useful for other things around the house too...like when the power goes out or need to change a flat tire on the side of the road at night...it's a great disaster light too because of the strobe function.

I'm definitely happy with this purchase and plan to buy some more of these as presents for my friends.

Not a disappointment

Smith Transit Regulator Series Goggles - Mirror Lens

Smith Transit Regulator Series Goggles - Mirror Lens

Rating for this product: 5 April 29, 2008

I bought these for my first snowboard trip ever! They had great visibility and I bought the one with the sensor mirror lenses which were great for overcast, cloudy, or snowy condition...helped me see where the slick places were on the groomed slopes. They fit great and didn't pinch my nose at all. The adjustable vents were great at keeping them fog-free. I liked them so much I wore them in Breckenridge one day when while shopping because it was snowing so hard! They felt great and I had great visibility with them.

I haven't got to use these yet, but I can tell already they are gonna be good because they fit so much better than the boots I used on my last trip. They are comfy and have a great fit especially on the back of the ankle adding great support without feeling constricted. The white ones really pop out against the color of my board. I definitely recommend. Can't wait for my next trip!

I haven't gotten to take my new board out yet, but the description definitely is accurate. I bolted my bindings on and strapped in and this is definitely a wide enough board if you are concerned about toe-drag. Also, the color of the board is based on the size, so if you were wondering about that, now you know. Also, you can't tell from the picture detail, but you can actually see the wood core through the clear epoxy on the top of the board...that's a really cool feature. My friends saw it and were immediately saying, "That's really cool!" I hope it is all I want when it comes to the slopes next season.
