"I have had 4 other headlamps in the past. I feel this one is the best. Bright flood light beam shines light on all my close up activities and some of my farther stuff as well. I found that it has a really strong diffused beam even about 75-90 feet away."

"Petzl is the name I think about when it comes to headlamps. I researched online and found that this model has the right balance of functions and price. The tactical red filter is nice for reading maps and manuals at night where low level light is required. The 3 levels of brightness is a plus, coupled with the tilt adjustment-you just can't beat it!"
