User Review: Petzl Tikka

Rating: rated 4.5 of 5 stars
Source: bought it new
Price Paid: $25

Summary

This headlamp has good battery life, is fairly durable, and comes with an affordable price. The only drawback is the highest brightness setting, which isn't incredibly bright, but given the size and the price, it's a great buy.

Pros

  • Affordable
  • Durable
  • Good battery life

Cons

  • Not very bright

This headlamp offers multiple light settings and uses the batteries well for each setting well. It's also durable, though the casing can open if given a significant drop. It's easy to operate and offers good functionality for low-demand tasks. The only drawback is that the highest beam intensity isn't that bright.

All this considered, the price is fantastic for the quality of the product and, at the price, you can't do any better. This is excellent for reading at night or walking around camp. It's isn't a high-end technical headlamp, and it doesn't pretend to be.

If you're looking for a simple headlamp, this is the best one for your money.
