Title: Gold Star
Review: UPDATE December 20, 2023.Bought one for a friend as a Christmas gift. She's an avid outdoors woman. She's 5'7" 110lbs and says this headlamp is too heavy for her, although she loves the versatility and brightness levels. She likes the magnet, ease of controls, the ability to use it in her hands, and the USB-C recharge. She keeps it as a backup to her other headlamp.**************Overall, I'm very happy with this headlamp. I'll be purchasing a second one. I recommend trying it. IMO, the PROs found on this headlamp should be standard across the board for all headlamps.PROs1) Easy and intuitive to use.2) Brightness levels are exactly what you would want.3) USB-C connection with rubber O-rings to keep out the weather.4) Comfortable to wear for hours.5) Not heavy at all; no need for the "over the top" strap.6) Color, throw, splash, and feel of construction are all excellent and give the feeling of value.7) Twist adjustment for flood/spot does not accidently adjust itself while you are busy working.8) All of the twist/turn functions are smooth and have the perfect amount of tension so it feels good and doesn't accidently turn on its own.9) No restrictions on up/down angle.10) The reflectivity of the headband is sufficient without being obnoxious.11) Removable battery.12) Battery can recharge inside and outside the headlamp.CONs1) The order of operation is: medium, high, low; hold for "turbo." To me, it seems an odd order, and I would have preferred the order to be: low, medium, high. Or, moonlight, low, medium, high. I'd even accept high, medium, low, but me preference is ascending order instead of descending.2) No option for non-reflective headband.3) No option for colored lenses. I would want a red lens that is permanently attached to the headlamp so it's not lost when not being used.

Title: Very Nice Head Lamp
Review: I have not owned this head lamp very long but it is a very nice unit. It has a solid feel and seems very well built. The hide a way USB-C port is very clever and keeps that port clean for when you need recharging. Of the two head straps included, one is a stretchy cloth design that fits well and is very comfortable and it holds this light securely in one place while you move your head around. I use my head lamp for detail wiring projects on my vehicles and it makes the job sucessful and easy with great illumination. I have yet to need "turbo" mode even in very dark settings.I would easily recommend this product and I might get some as gifts for worthy friends.

Title: SOLID little headlamp!!
Review: Got this as a warehouse deal, $39. Could tell it was opened previously, but everything was there and there is no issues. It's a solid little headlamp altogether, not just for the price. It's all aluminum, both endcaps have O-ring seals, it has a magnet on one endcap, the strap works good, although no center/over the head strap. It is adjustable up/down once you have it on the carrier/headband, and seems to hold in place very well with as much as I've used it so far. It can be charged battery in, OR battery out, both via USB-C and, both the lamp and the battery themselves have charge indicator lights. It has an adjustable lens that goes from flood to spot, and, spot mode still provides some peripheral lighting. It switches on at medium brightness, then cycles thru high then low after each press of the power button, if you hold it, you get "turbo" mode. I can't yet speak for the runtime on this battery, but others have claimed it's very good for a 2600mah battery. It is an 18650 button top battery, for those that are interested in getting higher capacity batteries like myself. I would recommend that you only use quality batteries with protection circuits in them. I do have several other lights advertised @ 1000 lumens (Streamlight Stinger DS HPL) that seem a fair amount brighter and have much better spot light range on the 1000 lumen modes. But, those lights are 3-4x this much $. That is not knocking this light, just saying if you want something VERY bright, there may be better options, but most likely will be 2-3x this much $. If you are looking for something to keep in a backpack as a "just incase" like myself, I think this is a great option for around $40. It would probably also be good for mechanics, hvac techs, home repairs, running, and really any other general chores you need 2 hands for. Overall, I think it will be a great little light to add to my inventory.

Title: Quality like none other
Review: This is by far the best head lamp I have ever bought. A friend of mine had one and let me borrow it and I had to get my own. His is still working perfectly and he's had it a year. I love the magnetic end, the charging port is hidden to keep debris out of it, stays bright until it dies, built tough, just overall a great product for a reasonable price

Review: I’ve had my share of flashlights over the years, but this one is an absolute game changer. First off, this thing is BRIGHT! I mean, light-up-your-entire-backyard-with-one-click bright. Whether you’re camping, dealing with a power outage, or just need a solid flashlight for work, this bad boy will have your back.The build quality is top-notch too. It feels durable and rugged in hand, like it could take a few drops without any issues. The battery life is impressive—I've used it for several hours on a single charge without any noticeable dimming.The adjustable zoom is a great feature. You can focus the beam for a long-distance spotlight effect or widen it to illuminate a larger area. It also has multiple modes, including an emergency strobe and a lower power setting if you don’t need the full brightness.The only downside? If you're using it on full power, don’t expect your night vision to recover quickly after turning it off. It’s almost too bright (but hey, that’s not really a problem, is it?).In short, if you’re looking for a flashlight that can basically replace the sun, look no further. Highly recommend!

Review: La batería dura mucho y es recargable. Se ajusta comodamente (también trae aditamentos para usarla con casco), el único detalle es que en uso prolongado se puede llegar a sentir caliente (normal por la potencia del LED).
