Hi all,
I'm looking to upgrade from my crappy 3x AAA Rayovac headlamp. It was free and so are batteries, but the output and runtime are horrible. I was interested in the Olight H2R nova, but the "customized" battery has me a bit worried. From what I've read so far, Zebralight seems to be the flavor of choice around these parts, there's just so many to choose from.
The light will be strapped to a hard hat and subject to some abuse. Mainly need light for up close work. I don't need any red emitters or moonlight mode
The Rayovac claims to be 50 lumens and is just barely adequate but I don't need 2000lm. I'm leaning towards using 18650 for power source just for capacity. I'm tired of switching out AAAs every other day.
I hope this post made some kind of sense. Thanks in advance!
