    Zebralight H602w vs H603w - H600Fw vs H600 Fc

    Does anyone know what's the difference between the H600w Mk III and the H603w? They seem to be the same light, as far as I can tell. TIA

    Do you know of a good reading headlight?

    You are correct. I have an H51, but of course it uses a reflector and has a hot spot, which I like very much for most things, but not for reading. Might pick up a H51F at some point.

    Do you know of a good reading headlight?

    Have you tried reading for more than a few minutes with a throwy beam? It's not a lot of fun. The best reading light I've used is my Surefire minimus, which fits the bill for you very well, other than being floody. Oops, it runs on Lithium primaries, though. One of the floody Zebralights would...

    Has the "off center" Zebralight ever been noticeable?

    I thought about the reflector being a little off-center (relative to my forehead) before I got my H51, but in use I immediately forgot about it, i.e. it's not noticeable...

    Zebralight reliability (the poll)

    Well, my H51 works fine now, after the deoxit. I think you'll find most of the problems were with the pre-51 series, that's been my impression. And, while you were thinking about it, ZL has just released an upgrade of the 51. :naughty:

    Zebralight reliability (the poll)

    I have a H51, which I absolutely LOVE, but after a few weeks it sometimes won't turn on. I just cleaned the positive connection and the spring with deoxit, and so far it's working. Is there anything that needs the deoxit other than the gold spring, the gold positive button, and the gold ring at...

    Need headlamp for unusual application

    I don't think you can go wrong with a Magicshine, unless you don't want to buy from China: http://www.geomangear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=4_41&products_id=180 I have one of the earlier 900's and it is bright! Pretty much all flood, but it carries pretty well. Maybe brighter...

    use flashlight to search bedbugs

    Thanks, I thought so. I was a little worried I'd get them in Nepal, but didn't even know of any, while we were there. The higher altitudes are too cold for them, but they're possible in other places.

    They do not. I don't actually know of any insects that do, scorpions are of course not insects.

    use flashlight to search bedbugs

    Cold works too, but it's a hassle to let your place freeze hard.

    Princeton Tec Remix Headlamp Review

    Thank you gentlemen. John, I might dig into it some more, but my gut feeling is no on the Li-ons. Gunga, I thought of the triple AAA voltage too, but don't even know how the batteries are configured.
