first off, GRREAT service and delivery time.. took only 2 days on free shipping to get to my door. thanks.
solid lamp that is REALLY bright and is light on the head, nice and comfy to the point where it doesn't feel like anything is on your head after a few minutes of wearing it. it's storm-proof and has a battery indicator and a "find me light" which is dead helpful to spot it at night time in the camp or in your backpack as the little find me light blinks every 3 seconds while the lamp is switched off, it uses next to no power and will blink for around 5 YEARS, without changing batteries..
i like its dimming feature also.. so on any of the settings weather its a LED setting or the Xenon setting you have 3 different brightnesses to choose from.
BOTTOM LINE, buy this lamp and it will not let you down.
