This is my 3rd Petzl and the best of them all! (also had 2 BD and a Princeton)
It just sit so well on your head, the light is great, low level for reading inside the tent, boost it up to find the trail in the snow! don't know why the specs say it's a front battery location, it's not - it's on the back...the new RXP is now out but I don't see any point in getting it, the XP work so well and I can live very happy with 3 lighting levels and not 9 that I need to program and then hope nothing will go wrong with the chip when I'm out in the country...why fixing something if it eint broken?

I totally agree with you, the upgrade to RXP is pretty pointless. But still, both have a chip inside, and they work just fine.
