Petzl Tikka XP Headlamp
"More Light." - Goethe

February 21, 2007
Had much success with the Tikka Plus, upgraded to the XP and glad I did. When balancing weight, functionality and versatility for backpacking lights this is as good as it gets. The many lighting options are nice, the diffuser does make a big difference for certain applications (like reading), but the feature I really like is the adjustable beam; the whole light housing is on a ratcheting hinge that allows you to fix the light in various positions, very securely. This is a big improvement over the Tikka Plus and is my favorite feature of the XP, brilliant.
