My go-to headlamp for all activities. I prefer it's one-button operation, rechargeable battery (that also takes AAAs for backup), and ideal brightness settings.

Small simple and gets the job done. Love this headlamp for night runs and early bird runs. I did pair it with the rechargeable battery pack *not included.

I have a headlamp in my pack AT ALL TIMES (you never know when you might experience an emergency and need lighting). This headlamp folds up into a very small bundle and is light weight.

Dependable, lightish, rechargeable, quite bright. I have had this light or a predecessor for a decade or more.
