    Question

    Looks like most of the ones that put out really good light have teh separate battery pack that attaches to the headstrap and the back.... Not sure if this would be annoying or not and I assume the whole thing is heavy in comparsion to the ones with inbuilt AAA batteries?

    LED Head Lights - Which one to get?

    Had no issues with my LED Lensers.......they started. Out as recharger but I have ditch the battery packs and use disposable batteries....good light output which related to battery life.

    Just about every helmet at work has a LED Lenser hanging of it.......30+ units.

    A little stronger light power than ayup australian made ones a mate has. They are very expensive.

    Cheers

    I have used Zebralight headlamps for years. I find them a bit thirsty on batteries but they are compact and rock solid. They also use a single AA battery which is very handy (they have various other models which take other battery types but I don't find them as practical for easy replacement on the road).

    We have used loads of headlamps.

    Currently have one of these black diamonds (as per above) - an okay lamp, but I find the charger finicky and its annoying that it won't accept just any rechargeable AAAs, only the supplied ones (but will take any alkalines).

    Much more impressed with the LedLenser Seo 7R I have - bloody brilliant. Rechargeable, waterproof, battery pack lasts ages, battery pack can be swapped for regular alkalines/rechargeable. Pack can be removed for charging which is a feature I particularly like.

    I use this type myself given I don't need to burn the tops off distant trees with it. Fits in a pocket, there's one in each glovebox, well balanced on the head, lightweight, the batteries last reasonable time and I got them for $5.00 each delivered. I just can't find that particular add just now.
