Tested in the Gobi Desert

The Zipka Plus Headlamp is strong, light, and versatile. We were especially surprised by the brightness and efficiency as the batteries lasted for a full week of trekking through the Gobi Desert. We initially felt that we would be giving up some durability with the retractable head band but it continues to work after 6 months of use. If going light is a goal, this is your choice.
