Hi guys, I am new to this forum, and also new to high quality lights, so I need some advice.
I am going to buy a headlamp for hiking trips this summer. Beyond the typical uses of finding stuff in the dark, I will also need a low setting in order to read for several hours each night. Additionally, high power would be nice if I decide to do any night hiking.
I am attracted to the SF Saint Minumus (the light one, without the batteries on the back). Infinitly adjustabe output sounds like a good idea. What I want to know is, before I spend this kind of money, are there other lights I sould consider? I was also thinking about getting a small flashlight and attaching it to the side of a stretchy headband with an elastic loop...that way the light would be ideal for EDC as well as hiking trips.
Thanks for your suggestions!
