"Have owned this headlamp for almost four years and have used it on my oyster lease during cold winter nights, taken it on numerous hikes and treks and it has travelled around the world for 15 months! I took it back for a warranty repair because the rubber cord that houses the wires had pulled from the lamp exposing the wires and compromising water-tightness (this is most likely a result of pulling the light out of a tightly-packed backpack)."
