While my wife was packing her Christmas decorations, getting them ready to put back into the attic, I did a little carpenter work to make more space for them. Our attic is unfinished but a previous owner did nail some boards on top of the ceiling joists to create a little storage area. I got up there with more strips of plywood and expanded it. With my Petz Tikka headlamp I could work pretty well, aiming the center of its flood exactly where I needed for driving nails.

I bought this thing on an impulse at REI several years ago, specifically for my wife and daughter to use to walk to the campground toilet when we go camping. I dug it out of my camping gear and decided maybe I could get a little more use out of it.

To me headlamps are pretty much ho-hum. They just don't generate the interest that the latest Luxeon-based lights do, but headlamps certainly can be useful.

But wait! There are some headlamps now that are Luxeon based!

Take a look at the Pelican 2630, Nuwai HLX-712L, and PrincetonTec EOS.

So things are getting a little bit less ho-hum in the headlamp department....
