From REI:
"The award-winning Black Diamond® Gemini headlamp, with xenon and LED options, optimizes illumination for rock, snow and ice users! Two lights are better than one--this headlamp combines a bright, route-finding xenon spotlight with a pair of power-conserving LEDs. Xenon halogen bulb casts a bright light; prismatic reflector gives even illumination throughout the beam. Two efficient LEDs cast smooth, even light; long-life xenon halogen bulb casts a bright beam for nearly four hours. Three-way, push-button switch toggles between light options; positioned to prevent light from accidentally being turned on. Compact, three-AA battery pack at the back of the headband; heavy rubber gasket keeps rain and snow out of the battery pack. Comfortable three-strap headband is completely adjustable. Batteries and a spare long-life xenon bulb included. Closeout."

Compact and lightweight, the Gemini works great as a three-season lamp for climbing. Run the xenon when climbing, and the LEDs when perfecting the belay. The Gemini excels in all conditions in the backcountry or if you're just afraid of the dark. Spare Bright Xenon Bulb included.

I used this light a couple of days past and I was very pleased with its performance. I am sure I could hike a trail out with this light in moonlight mode without a problem."
