"Cant say about the battery life because I just demoed this for a night adventure. But, the halogen lamp was worthless to me. I thought the lower leds allowed for a sharper night image. I also thought that there should be a third strap going overhead so the thing doesnt sag down the head while running."

"I bought this headlamp for the brightness it was supposed to offer with the initial headlamp. It has no distance and the l.e.d. actually seems brighter. The headlamp put out a very dull, yellow beam with no distance.

It does have great battery life and I haven't had a single malfunction."
