Pros & Cons
Pros

Good quality headlamp. Simple straightforward head lamp. Best headlamps ever for walking in the dark.
Includes 3 aaa batteries too. Lightweight, varying light intensities, and choice of using aaa batteries or a rechargeable one. Also accepts li-ion rechargeables.

Competitiveness

I'm very glad my son turned me on to this brand versus inferior [imported] off-brands.
There are some other similar plastic lights.

The optional battery packs are pretty nice they are plenty bright for a budget headlamp i didn’t get much long term use out of the two i bought but i have no reason to suspect they won’t last
