THE QUICK TAKE

Is it right for you?

HL16 makes sense if you prefer spare AAA batteries to finding a charging outlet. Separate white and red controls make it useful around camp, with a tilting lamp for the task in front of you.

Choose a rechargeable model if you use a headlamp every evening. Replacing disposable batteries becomes a chore, and the maximum-output setting is not the long-runtime mode. This bundle’s spare-battery case is already included.

01 / BUYING NOTES

Before you buy.

01

Choose white or red deliberately.

The two buttons control the white and red lighting. Red can keep a small task lit without using the brightest white setting around other people.

02

Carry the right spares.

The lamp runs on three AAA batteries. Use the included carrying case for protected spare storage; it is not a charger.

03

Set the strap before you head out.

Adjust the headband for a stable fit and tilt the light toward your path. The black HL16 body and orange-patterned band are the version in this bundle.

03 / SOURCES

What the sources say.

The published weight includes the band and batteries. Its longest runtime belongs to a low-output mode, not continuous maximum brightness.
