Review: Buy this, and not the recharable or cheap ones... - I bought this because earlier I went with a cheaper and rechargeable set. Those things honestly were crap, and I am on my way to leaving a review on those that say so. This one however, so much brighter, its not heavy at all, and it lasts SO LONG because it is driven by batteries. I would avoid the rechargeable ones and get this guy. Totally worth it.
Review: Great company great product great quality - What an awesome product. The company stands by their products as I've had to warranty something else before and they just sent me a new one. The power tap feature is great it's basically a touch spot on the case to lower or brighten the device quickly. Somewhere around 100 G I believe I also have the new 450 model at 450 lumens instead of 400. Very Compact and the 400 does not have a slot to remove the band and put it on a backpack whereas the 450 does. The instructions are funny tho, they tell you not to put it around a child's neck, don't do that.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great company great product great quality

What an awesome product. The company stands by their products as I've had to warranty something else before and they just sent me a new one.

Somewhere around 100 G I believe I also have the new 450 model at 450 lumens instead of 400.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Many useful features
*by M***L on August 27, 2021*

I have a smaller version of this that takes 3 AAA batteries, but I wanted to get something a little brighter so I picked up this 4 AAA battery version. It is very light weight and the headband is adjustable easily and very comfortable. I wear it directly on my head or in the winter I can wear it over a cap. The beam pattern is useful with a decent combination of spill and flood to see ahead of me. I use the red mode quite a bit for just enough light to find my way around in the dark without blindingly bright output. I like the feature to tap the side for max brightness and the fact that it has memory and when powered on returns to the last used setting. You can angle the head up and down to adjust how far ahead of you it illuminates so you can match your lighting to your activity. A great little light for anything from night time dog walking to hiking in the wilderness.
