This was my emergency headlamp for a Franconia day hike that turned into an epic. Steep scrambles in the dark are no fun, but this was a good light. Ran for 2+ hours with no cranking on a full charge from a month plus earlier. It was dimming and could've used cranking near the end, but we just wanted out of there! Anyway, only real complaint was the cord from the headlamp to the battery pack. I clipped the battery pack onto the back of the headstrap, but the cord flapped and whipped around a bit. Next time, I'd take some time before hitting the trail to figure out how to tie it back/ strap it down best. Definitely a fixture in the emergency kit though, and a good choice for an occasional trail headlamp if you don't like carrying batteries along.

I like the feature of having the computer charge or hand crank option just in case. Really came in hand in the RMNP from which I just returned. I got a great deal for the discounted price. Full price a bit rich for my blood and the beam was weak compared to my teammates headlamps (various major brands) but it got the job done!

A great option for 'green consumers' because the lamp can be charged via electric outlet or by hand cranking (especially helpful when camping). Batteries are optional. It is a little bulky because you carry the charger, but easily clips to your pants or backpack. Pleasantly surprised to find out it had 3 adjustments--bright, normal and flash mode.

Now a Fire hazzard! The battery plug shorts out after several years.
I got several of these. They worked well until the plug into the battery case started to short out.
