I'm not looking for a poll. Bolster has done a great job of that. Just a few comments about what you have would be interesting (and it helps to keep track of what the more frequent posters are using).

I have four...BD Storm, PT EOS, Zebralight H51 and H51f.

What do you have?

PT Apex+++ (i.e. an Apex from a few yrs ago, modded 3 times: SSC P4, Cree XP-G, now Cree XM-L)
Ultrafire UF-H4
on the way: Ultrafire UF-H2

The Apex is my go-to headlamp for everything, but if I want something smaller or lighter, or that won't slip off my head when I'm upside down, or if I want to read in bed or in a tent, I pick the UF-H4, or soon maybe also the UF-H2. The only other headlamp I'm interested in would be that p60 one that's been "coming soon" for a couple of years. Or if someone comes up with a triple XM-L headlamp for < $100.

I have about 6. The only ones I use anymore are my Zebralight H51w and my Spark ST5-190NW. Since I've had those two, the others I've had (the most recent of which was a PT Byte) have been relegated to tool-box, glove-box, and other kinds of occasional use repurposing. Between my Zebralight and my Spark, all the others have been rendered obsolete.

Addendum: since I have those two lights, I see no need to buy something like a higher end PT or BD, etc. Why should I spend MORE money on an inferior light, that has a cool tint to boot? :blech:
