review: Phoebus Wilderness Kit

There are lots of pictures of the Wilderness Kit there.
This kit is simply fun. It has so many combinations that you tend to play with it for a long time. The quality of the components is high. All the threads and joints are spot on and I really do not fault this build quality in any way.
I won this kit in a raffle where I was the first name out of the hat. I made a great choice and I recommend this kit to anybody.
There are lots of combinations that are useful but I am only going speak to two. The headlamp option is powerful and has throw with little spill. That is great if you are walking about and need to see down the trail. The lantern option is very unusual. Of note is the very useful ability to tilt the tripod head so that the lantern light only goes where you need it and not in your face.
Please note that my picture is an example of what you are not probably intended to do with the kit but it was fun to try. The lantern was screwed onto the headlamp!!!
Cheers
Dave
