Hi, everyone!
I wonder if you guys could help me choosing a headlamp, for night hiking (wandering around camp, not whole night hiking).
What I'm looking for:
* 1AA or 2AA alkaline/NIMH - l will use mostly my eneloop, but i wanna be able to use common alkalines in an emergency
* Lightweight
* Preferably, neutral white light. If not, cold white could do.
* A secondary red light (blinking mode would be a plus)
* A good range of modes (like: moonlight, low, medium, high and turbo, or something like that)
* Can withstand heavy rain (a little waterproofness would be even better, though I won't use it for diving)
* Floody is better (I will have a thrower in my hand)
The ones I narrowed down so far:
1. Nitecore HA20
2. Black Diamond Spot 2016 (read some people complaining about buttons being a bit unreliable)
3. Zebralight H52fw (read some coments about leakage and other waterproof problems)
So... Any comments on those listed, or any suggestions that are better?
Regards!
