Bright but lightweight
By AMG
Ranked #1280 - Headlamps
April 4, 2005
After doing a side-to-side comparison at the local store, I was amazed at how bright the HIGH setting is on this thing. It ranks up there with some of the xenon lights in terms of output. Lasts for dozens of hours on the LOW setting (which is comparable to the other lightweight headlamps, like the Petzl LEDs). Only complaint is that it is slightly heavier than the Tikka, but the additional lighting options more than make up for this.
