Default Re: LIGHTS FOR CCW AND LAW ENFORCEMENT

And here is another, very straight forward (one setting) with a concentrated beam.

HUSKY HEADLAMP
TWO LED’S

I found this one in Home Depot for $9.95, like others it uses three AAA batteries to power the two LED’s and it have only one setting.
I don’t know what class of LED’s it have, they are not the regular Nichias 5 mm, these are very powerful and behave more like 3 watts Luxeons, but they can’t not be at this low price.



The case is that this inexpensive headlamp is very good at throwing a nice round focused beam a certain distance, the beam is as perfect and free of shadows and artifacts as the best lights that I have tested.



The light is very straightforward, click on click off switch, one setting, and full power. Nothing fancy, just a good beam of light in a lightweight case, I will take this one hiking with no problems.

I tested at 20 feet against my deer head because that is how I tested other similar lights, but this beam can reach farther and provide good illumination for walking a marked trail.



Cheers
