Petzl Duobelt LED 14 Headlamp
Packs a punch

I finally replaced my old and sturdy headlamp with a flashy new LED/halogen headlamp, and so far I am very satisfied. 14 LEDs lit gives you enough light to bicycle in rough terrain in the middle of the night. If needed you can switch to halogen for that extra distance, but the 14 LEDs usually is more than enough. Around the camp, 5 LEDs is more than enough. I also like this model since it allows you to carry the batteries under your clothes so it holds out in cold weather too. It fits nice on my head, just wish it was a little more adjustable on the front piece. Yeah I know I can just turn my head, but sometimes it nice to be able to fix it at certain angles.
