great headlamp

By Ranked #781 - Headlamps December 8, 2009

This is my first headlamp since an ancient, heavy PrincetonTec crapped out on me. It's been great so far. It is super light and simple. The spotlight is very bright and is very good for my dark commute home. The 3 LED settings put out a lot of light great for around camp. The multiple settings let you squeeze out great battery life.

The only possible issue I can think of is that it might accidentally be turned on if carried in your pack, although I have not had this happen to me yet. As another reviewer suggested it might be a good idea to pack it in a small case.

Overall I highly recommend this.
