Black Diamond Soliras Headlamp
Bright but bulky

I owned this headlamp and decided to return. Pros - with the extra bright bulb it's ridiculously bright. The rechargeable battery is nice, as the design of the chargers (you don't have to take the battery out of the headlamp to recharge it). Cons - bulkier than most headlamps, and the battery is heavy and awkward at the back of your headlamp. If they'd designed it with a detachable battery pack it'd be perfect.
