I am looking to purchase a very small, lightweight headlamp for hiking use - mostly for trips that take longer than planned, or for very early morning starts.
Critical factors are weight, size, brightness, and comfort. I would prefer around 4+ hours of runtime.
It needs to be bright enough to find unclear trails, light weight and small enough that I won't leave it at home, and comfortable enough to wear for 4 hours while hiking.
I've read a bunch of reviews and posts, and so far, I'm having a heck of time deciding. Money is not a huge factor, as I'm looking for quality.
Right now, I'm seriously considering the Petzl Tikka Plus and the PT Aurora.
Any other suggestions? Are combo Incan/LED's worth their bigger size and weight?
