Princeton Tec Apex Headlamp
Burns Hot and Fast!
By Brian Wilson
Ranked #188 - Headlamps
May 24, 2009
I have used this lamp for a few years now and love the brightness. The highest setting really lights up the trail. This is a pretty comfortable light for its size. It can be bouncy for running thus leading to motion sickness for some. Without question this light is a battery eater. On the max setting expect no more than 2 hours. I always run with a hand held as well and save the brightest settings for technical downhills. Overall a great headlamp, but for running I would check out the BD and Petzl offerings.
