Looking for some suggestions.
My sons and I run a small market farm. We routinely work pulling produce out of the field after dark. This time of year it is melons (Watermelon, Honeydew, etc.) and in the next few weeks it will be squash and pumpkins.
We are using LED EDC lights taped to our hats for now (Fenix LD01 and LD15). This is not ideal and many times the lights fall off at the worst time. I am looking to buy a few headlamps for me and the boys.
I am really hung up on whether to get the H51fc or the H51c from Zebra. The flood would be really nice so I am not getting blinded when I am picking, but the throw works well for seeing the path when carring melons out. I am wondering if the flood is still bright enough to see the path when walking out or would I be better with the thrower?
I was also thinking that if I got the SC51c then I could make it do double duty as a headlamp and a flashlight when needed. Could I combine the SC51c and the H51fc on a single headlamp to have the best of both worlds when I am working alone?
Thanks for the input. It is a lot of money for me and I want to make the right choice.
