Streamlight nailed it with this headlamp. I have lived off grid for over six years and use a headlamp every day. Often for as many as 16 hours. For 95%, at least, of your headlamp lighting needs you do NOT need a headlamp that will illuminate a whole football field. 14.5 Lumens on high is plenty of light if you need a lot of light. And on the low setting of 6 Lumens this is actually PLENTY of light for 95% of what you need light for and the run-time is great. Another very important feature of this headlamp is the built in circuitry that boosts battery voltage to keep light output constant. This headlamp will get every bit of juice out of those batteries. Runs fine on lithium rechargeable batteries as well. Rugged, lightweight, tough polycarbonate construction, weatherproof, energy efficient ..... altogether an ideal choice for day to day use or ultralight camping. One modification I did was to remove clip that allows you to attach it to a hat. I was uncomfortable to wear for long periods until I did this. Afterward, easy to wear for hours at a time. Leave that clip if you intend to use it as a cap light but remove if primary use is as a headlamp. This review created using a 100% solar powered computer - BluCrystl -Read full review

I've had one of these for several years and I use it almost every night. It has never let me down. I am not kind to it. The light is great for seeing where you are going or working on cars/equipment. It will not spot light deer at 50 yards. It is not meant to. It is good for about 25 feet on high. I use it to determine if the creature between me and the house or shop is a skunk or another of the various critters where I live. It has saved me from being sprayed several times. I also use it to see what i am doing under a vehicle when I need both hands for the task at hand. I have one in each of my vehicles and hang one by the door. I gave these out as Christmas gifts last year and everyone likes them. A previous poster said they were cheaply built. I differ in that opinion. For an average of $16 shipped it is a well made unit and reliable. Don't expect the same feel or performance that comes with a $60 head lamp for $16. It is well suited for its intended use. I have had many headlamps over the years that were in the $20 range and this one is by far the best. That is why I have bought multiple units.Read full review
