Editor insight:
For a headlamp, this thing isn’t cheap, but what quality fishing or hunting tool is? In my experience, you get what you pay for and this is one of those things that you’ll be glad you dropped the 70 bucks to own. Cheap headlamps are like gas-station sunglasses, they work for a short while, but they crap out and break super easy, don’t make that same mistake with your next headlamp.
