1.0 out of 5 stars Perfect example of planned obsolescense, October 16, 2011

I really wanted to like this light- let me change that- I liked, no, I loved this light- WHEN IT WORKED. I am a plumber- this light is by far the best headlamp I've ever used. I just returned my 4th, and last, one. This is one of the most blatant examples of planned obsolescence I have ever seen- what the Hell is this world coming to when this is the way supposedly reputable companies do business!? This piece of junk WILL stop working after 1-3 months (or less!) of consistent use, not heavy use by any means, just regular once or twice a day for a couple minutes, use. The wire from above the lamp going back to the battery pack WILL stop working- you WILL have to wiggle it to get it to work, at first just a bit but quickly it will be pointless and infuriating to even try to use this device, and you WILL also think that you were ripped off. That's sure how I feel. This is 4- really, no exaggeration- 4 in a row that did THE EXACT SAME THING; you may fool me once, twice, three- maybe even 4 times in a row- but that's enough for this fool. Anyone else want to back me up on this? I'd like to hear the long-term report from some of the earlier reviewers please.
Take care, -Tim the Plumber

5.0 out of 5 stars Really great headlamp, October 19, 2011

By

This review is from: Duracell Daylite 80-Lumens, 3-Watt LED Headlamp with 3-AA Alkaline Batteries (Health and Beauty)

I am a general contractor and mostly do all my own work, so a decent headlamp has become a very important part of my equipment, especially when I am doing things like upgrading a customer's distribution panelboard (inside the house, no electricity for lighting). I have been through quite a few of them, I can assure you, and this is without a doubt the best one I have used to date. The lamp assembly itself is very durable machined aluminum and the light output is very good for a headlamp. All the elastic and hardware is also of high quality.

For standing and working I think this headlamp would be hard to beat. It is, admittedly, heavier than many due in part to the aluminum housing and in part to it's 3-AA battery power source, but the quality of the elastic keeps this pretty comfortable for many uses. Really, the only place where a different style headlamp would be better is when lying down on my back, working overhead, like I do when plumbing sinks and the like. For that I use a really cheapo headlamp that has 3 AAAs in the light assembly itself. That work is close and doesn't require the sort of light that the Duracell unit puts out. I suspect using the duracell unit in that fashion is what led to the plumber who reviewed this light to complain about failure. The wire connection is indeed a weak point, not a problem for standing work but lying down, not so good.

I hesitate to say what I paid for mine. I got it at Costco (all gone now) and could have bought two, or even three, for what some people are charging for this headlamp on line. I liked it so much that I went back the next week and bought another for a backup.

Duracell hit the nail with this one. it's powerful well focused and light weight light. It has a great distance for a LED headlight.
