The band on my Petzel was losing it's ability to retain a bit of stretch, so my son inherited it, he loves it! What 2 year old wouldn't want a micro?
I picked up a cheap energizer, 2 white led's or 1 red led.. Had it on since I bought it.. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif

The beam is fine, the two white LED's come together to make one very white primary circle. I can easily navigate around a dark room with plenty of side spill.
The red is not quite as bright, being a single LED. I can manuver around fine, the red is going to take a while to get used to for me.
It fits great, very comfortable and light. I can see this being very usefull for close up work like fishing, reading and things like that.
I would not hesitate to use it work my way throught the bush.
