Princeton Tec Eos Headlamp

Item #PRT0011 | 33 in Stock

By Ranked #17 - Headlamps August 21, 2007

As an early adopter of headlamps, I have used dozens of models over the years. The EOS is currently my favorite. I even prefer it over the newer Tikka XP that I bought. I do a lot of outdoor activity at night (only time I seem to be able to fit it in the schedule) and I also enjoy night hiking. This lamp is very reliable and durable. On high power it will really light the trail and allows me to spot cairns and blazes in the distance. Most of the time, low power is all I use until the batteries get low, then medium works well. Pros: relatively light, reliable, powerful, long run-time. Cons: button sometimes hard to push with gloves on; lacks diffusion filter for better close-up usability.
