Rating: - Very Bright
This headlamp is very comfortable and easy to use at a great price. I bought it for a scout camping trip and it was the brightest light on the trip. While hiking in pitch dark three scouts in front of me could see with no prblem. Now I'm purchasing a 2nd one for my son for the next trip to replace the cheap one that I bought him, because you can't put a price tag on a child's safety.

I have purchased this product several times from several places - things get stolen or broken in construction. The rubber strap works pretty well on hardhats (as designed) until 3-4 months later. Then it gets a little dirty on the 'softgrip' pad, and tends to fall off the hard hat.
I've never used the strap that comes (as a bonus to me) for use on the bare head.
The light lasts a LONG time on one LED usage, and on any setting is plenty bright with new to mid life batteries.

I bought this because i was going to be doing some work in the attic. The work required running wires and so i was moving around a lot up there, and relocating a work lamp soon became really tiresome.
This was the perfect solution. The 7 LED lamps are bright enough to light up my entire workspace and the surrounding areas. Also, the adjustable angle on the lamp is a great feature to minimize neck strain.
The padding on the light where it rests on your forehead is a little thin. Also if you plan on wearing it for long hours in tight hot environments where you are likely ... Read More

I agree that the strap should be a little stronger but the light is bright and clear. The only time I couldn't aim it where I wanted it was when I was working overhead, though I suppose I could have just put in on upside-down? I like the three settings for brightness and I especially like that it uses AAA batteries and not some of the more exotic (expensive) sizes that other lights require.
Rating: - Bright, fits nicely, but light diminishes quickly
This is a nice unit, with a claimed 40 lumens of output on the highest setting, 20 lumens on mid, and about 8 lumens on low. Upon initial use, I found the high setting to be massively powerful that could easily blind my eyes if looked into directly. However, this high output was short lived -- lasting less than an hour. The unit has declining light power output as the batteries die, this will sneak up on you in a very ugly way if you need to use the light in the field and don't have immediate access to swap the batteries.
It's pretty clear why output isn't so long -- with only 3 AAA ... Read More
