5.0 out of 5 stars Great Headlamp at a Great Price, March 26, 2007

I love the fact that this uses LEDs and common (AAA) batteries. This is very bright - plenty of light for anything I might want to do. The fact that it has a Red LED, to preserve night vision, is icing on the cake. I ordered one the first time around, then went back and ordered several more to be used as gifts. (My nephew is going to love it!)

Update: Subtract 1 star because I found it turned on in the pocket of my backpack. (It appears that the slider switch moves a bit too easily. I may try something like a rubber band wrapped around the light to try to keep the switch from moving.)

On the other hand, add back 1/2 star due to the fact that the light swivels up and down so you can direct the light where you need it.

Still comes out at 4.5 stars for me.

I ordered one of these headlamps to keep in the car for any night-time emergencies. For the price, this light is really great and worth a 5 star rating in my opinion, but it's not as fancy as some. I've also got a Black Diamond Helion LED Headlamp (more than 3 times the cost of this unit) that I have used almost daily for the last 2 or 3 years, and am making some comparisons to that.

This light is surprisingly bright, with the beam being a somewhat defined medium-diameter spot. It's not as bright as those lights with the new Luxeon LEDs but it's very bright and won't wear down the batteries as fast as a Luxeon LED. The projected beam is not totally even in color on my unit, with a slight yellower cast projected near the middle of the spot and a blue-purple tint at the outer edges of the projected spot. This may not be a big deal for some, and may be due to the magnifiers used on the lens.

While wearing the lamp, I noticed some reflection of light off of my eyebrows. They're not huge eyebrows or anything, but it was a slight distraction and is due to the lens projecting out slightly from the front of the light.

The headband is adequate and can be snugged-up nicely, and would fit a child too. The single band is not as secure feeling as those lights with an additional band that goes over the top of one's head, and may be prone to sliding down with a lot of vertical body motion like running, etc.

The pivoting lamp housing makes it easy to adjust the vertical beam position, with its smooth movement, swinging down and away from the battery compartment. Some other lights ratchet up and down in their adjustment.

The red LED seems handy for night vision and has even red lighting (not as much of a spot as the white). The housing seems consistent with price (plastic and inexpensive feeling), with a snap-off battery cover which feels a bit fragile if one were not careful with it. But over-all, this seems to be a great deal for the price.

I love the red led option. I use it for reading star charts when taking kids on astronomy hikes.
