Petzl Zipka Plus 2 Headlamp
Beware Ye Long Haired Hippies

I've really enjoyed Zipkas for a long time. I like the fact that they zip up all compact style. One advantage with the sting of the zipka is that it tends to bind up in my wife's hair, which means I don't have to share this toy with her.
*Golf Clap* to Petzl for adding the red LED to the design. This was a huge selling point for me as I use the light on the sailboat at night. I can consult the charts down below without frying my night vision.
