Rechargeable LED Headlamp 300 Lumens

Trail Purpose

A reliable light source during an outdoor adventure is critical. A hands free headlamp allows you to be extra productive by allowing use of both hands. If the power grid goes down or you're forced to evacuate you'll need to plan to be active in the dark. Daylight activities are hard enough but building a fire, setting up shelter, going to the bathroom at night in the dark can be very complicated.

The Petzl LED headlamp is ultra light weight because it's intended for climbing. It has multiple modes to increase brightness or increase battery life. In the low mode, the batteries can last up to 130 hours on one charge. On high mode, lhe LED bulb is much brighter than traditional bulbs.

The USB charger makes it compatible with so many charging scenarios. You can even recharge by connecting to a laptop USB port.

This package comes with the following modes:

• High Beam
• Medium Beam
• Low Beam
• Red light (for working with a group without blinding them)

We use our headlamps regularly on outdoor adventures and they work great. The rechargeable functions are such a huge plus.

What We Like

• Price - The 300 is more afforable than the 450 lumen version.
• Durable - The Petzl brand is known for outdoor usage of its products - they're intended for rough environments.
• Bright - The LED bulbs light up a room or outdoors setting
• Modes - When you need it you can use high mode to light up the entire area. When you don't you can go into energy saving mode with the low beam. 
• Water Resistent - We've used ours in the rain and left them out in the dew. No issues.
• Compact - They fit into a pocket or pack easily and you barely feel them on your head.

Tips and Recommendations

• Rechargeable batteries - Recharge the lamp every few outings if you use it regularly. If it is stowed in a go-bag, charge it every few months so it's ready to go.
