Can you be more specific about your "general" use, please?
For instance, I use my Tikka with an optional red filter for working and taking notes outdoors at night. I find it provides a nice amount of light, weighs next to nothing, and with the filters, tends not to attract bugs. However, I find it a wee bit uncomfortable for long use and I have started to wearout the headband in a spot or two after a few years. I use my PT Aurora for reading at night and not disturbing my wife (ver. 1.0.a). The adjustable levels are useful and the headband is wide enough so that using it for a length of time is comfortable. I'm not sure I'd use either for hiking, though. And I might choose something else if I needed light for fine detail work.
When I look for lights, I try to get one suited for the specific task I have in mind. If it works for other tasks, so much the better, but there is less comprimising for the task at hand.
