I have collection of headlamps, if I could only keep one, this would be the one. Most practical well thought out head lamp I seen yet. Runs on two AA’s, water tight, very comfortable, and durable. This one headlamp that never gets put away, use it camping, working on my computer, working on my old hunk of junk 4x4. Got a 2hr run time on max bright, the candle power this has. I suggest running rechargeable batteries in this one, especially if you plan to use the max power like a love to do. Heck even if I did not go camping I will still have this one. I hardly bother with my dewalt flashlights and mag lights any more. A note on the durability… I’ve had this lamp for a couple of years now, tanked a few hundred AA’s, still works like new and still my favorite.

Let me agree with this first four of the reviews. This is a tough lamp to beat for the price. My first rule of headlamps is no specialty batteries. This achieves that goal with two AAA batteries, also helps keep the weight down. Press and hold on/off switch is a nice touch to prevent accidental turn on while stowing it. I have collection of head lamps, this is one will use most around the campsite. I do not play in the wettest of conditions, not sure how this one would hold up, does not seem to be very water tight. Bet you a nickel it will do just fine in a quick rain storm.
