Gear Review
Great for Caving
By Bill in TN
Ranked #1482 - Headlamps
January 26, 2006
This was a great light, but a friend has a Tikka Plus. We both hiked a mountain trail, and his 4 LED gave him sufficient light. We did some cave exploring on the same trip. This is where I had the advantage by far! Looks bulky, but is not by any means. I can vouch for it being comfortable for five hours.
