I have used this Petzl headlamp with few problems so far. It has a light plastic housing and a comfortable elastic headband.
Immediately gratifying is to have the practical free use of your hands.
The 2 diodes shed sufficient light to walk through a dark basement,however they are not removable/replacable.
I am paricularly concerned about the batteries which seat in the plastic housing adjacent to your forehead when in use.
Of concern is the product warning that improper battery placement order may release explosive gases,and extremely corrosive liquids.
There is also an additional warning to not allow the batteries to overly discharge(ie.stored in the product unused for a period of time). As this may cause corrosive liquid leakage. Remember that this plastic light housing seats on your forhead above your eyes!
A safer, higher quality product, although a bit more expensive is suggested.

A great little light to keep in your drawer if the power goes out. And cheap too!

I bought one of these for my nephew’s birthday! He’s hard to buy for but he loved it. Then, my daughter asked for one for Christmas. She loves hers as well! My husband even wore it one night while he was trying to finish up some grilling in the dark! My daughter wore it all day Christmas day!

Very simple, straight to the point headlamp, got everything I was expecting. Good satisfying switch with two positions: on/off. Plenty of light, used this on a safari in africa where we had no electricity, got me around camp perfectly. I used consistently for 2 weeks, 3-5 hours a day and didn’t need to replace batteries, nor did I notice any dimness over that period. headband fit both me and my wife securely and comfortably.
