Petzl MYO XP Belt Headlamp
So bright!!
By David LaVergne
Ranked #288 - Headlamps
January 18, 2011
This thing is crazy bright, weighs nothing, and lasts for hours. I've used it down to -10 F on Mt Washington and with the batteries kept in my inside coat pocket this baby burns forever. The cord is rather thick and in the cold is the opposite of mailable, but by using the little clips on the headband to run it around to the back of my head I just let it drop down my neck and into my coat and never so much as feel it so it's really quite inconsequential. The diffuser lens is a great help as well but all but impossible to manipulate in gloves, but that's starting to get unreasonably picky. Great lamp!
