Great Backup / Signal Lamp

By Ranked #22 - Headlamps November 7, 2008

I keep one of these clipped on the band of my main headlamp (Princeton Tec Apex Pro) as a backup navigation light and rear-facing position signal (the red strobe works particularly well for this). I haven't used it very often, but it's been clipped up there for a while now and ridden out some nasty weather on the top of my head and still works perfectly. It's not exactly a high powered spot light (surprise surprise) but is plenty bright enough for basic night navigation and camp tasks. Makes a great backup light, and is bright enough to be a primary headlamp for you ultra-light types (but you'll probably need spare batteries for more than a night or so).
