   The light works well and seems to be durable and well made. There is 3 intensity setting however, the light pattern is a small focused spot with diffuse light on the outer… Works well if you do not need to light something up close like an electrical panel.

   Nice lamp very bright and focused, comfortable and easy to use however the lower levels feature failed after several uses and so now all three clicks of the operating button result in maximum brightness . In fairness a call to the company outlet near me provided an assurance from them that they would replace the unit at any time no questions asked.

   Item received was not as pictured… was really wanting the pictured item as it is a older model. The new model is larger and not as bright it also has more rubber trim. Which does not work well with my work conditions..

   NICE LITTLE HEADLAMP, SIMPLE TO USE AND HAS A FLOOD AND SPOT LIGHT WITHOUT ADJUSTING ANY ZOOMS. USE IT FOR MY EARLY MORNING DUCK HUNTS AND HAS SERVED ME WELL SO FAR

   Some things to know about this headlamp: 1. It is designed for distance illumination, not closer work. The beam has a very tight focused hot spot designed for throw. This is not the type of beam that I desire for general use around the house, night walks, or camping. 2. It is not designed for use with Ni-MH rechargeable batteries. The documentation specifies Alkaline batteries. I installed fully charged high quality Ni-MH batteries and within only a few minutes the light was displaying the low battery indicator. The light does ‘work’ with Ni-MH batteries and the run time seems to be ‘acceptable’ in my brief testing. 3. It is only rated IP-X4 for water resistance. Which means splashing water from all directions. Not sure how well this will hold up in heavy rains. I prefer to see an IP-X6 rating or higher for flashlights and headlamps. 4. The output settings are not well ‘spaced’ for a headlamp. There is a noticeable difference between low and medium. There is not much noticeable difference between medium and high in real world use due to the way the human eye works. Output spacing of about 15/45/150 would be more useful for most usage. 5. Be careful when loading the battery holder back into the housing. There are color coded markings to align it. Do not push the battery holder into the housing, it won’t work and it will be hard to remove. If gravity does not allow it to drop in, check the alignment. 6. The push button switch is large, easy to operate, and easy to switch the light through the High/medium/low/off modes. It always comes on in High mode. You must go through the other settings to turn it off. 7. The headband fits a large head comfortably. I will be returning the light due to the very narrow beam width and the fact that it is not designed for Ni-MH rechargeable batteries. I hope this extra information helps you make a good choice on a headlamp.

   it is not as elegant as other more expensive lights but it does the job. Going outside to play should not have to be expensive, this light will do what needs to be done for your night outings.

   I purchased this in May of 2011 & this is an update. I’ve used this light for many years now and continue to be thrilled with its performance. It’s very economical in terms of battery consumption- especially if run at one of the two lower levels. One feature I especially like that’s not an advertised feature – how often have you retrieved a flashlight that was packed in a tight space like a duffel or dry bag and the light has inadvertently turned on and the batteries are dead? I’m a whitewater rafter and this has happened to me more than once. With this light, you can remove the battery chamber – invert the chamber so the light cannot turn on – and put the light back together. You don’t want to tighten the threads all the way when you do this as it’s not designed to be inserted backwards – but this prevents the problem of the switch inadvertently being pushed and your batteries being drained. I’ve been doing this for years with no ill affects.
   Very bright, rugged, water resistant, comfortable to wear, and runs on easy to find AAAs – what’s not to like??
