Headlight?

    So this is mainly for Fred, but I'm open to suggestions. 😀 Is there such thing as a Fred approved headlight? I use my headlight a ton. Tonight I was using it to take the garbage down and ended up needing my little "fredlight" because my headlight needs some help. Any suggestions?

    Gorilla Tape might be the answer. But I want to hear from Fred too. Anything with Cree LEDs seem to be on the approved list.

    I've got one of these Zebralight headlights - http://goinggear.com/index.php?main_pag ... cts_id=140



    It's a very floody type of light with no real hotspot. It's great for working up close work or around a camp but doesn't do well for long distances. This one uses a single AA battery and has a warm/neutral tint emitter. They have others that use CR123 or 18650 batteries and/or cooler white emitters.



    I don't have any experience with any other headlights.



    There's a forum dedicated to headlights on candlepowerforums.com with a lot of information - http://www.candlepowerforums.com/vb/for ... 706c26&f=6

    Did you win one of the two I brought recently? Those headlights are 150 lumens. I think that would be bright enough for your trash voyages. Has anyone tried those headlights? Do we know who won them?

    Tell Don I'll trade him some hand warmers for his headlight. 😀

    He may take you up on it! He seems to win all the flashliht type items and probably has a dozen or so sitting around his house now!

    I just received this one from eBay. Works great...and cheap...



    It does have a hot spot.
