As appliance service tech love headlamps, but I bought a cheap one off Amazon when these first started to come out and I hated it mainly because it was a cheap one and LEDs immediately started going out and batteries didn’t last long. I think I’m gonna give this one a shot.

Where you put the pencil you can also attached a pencil light, and verry easy you can have a 2 in 1 ligthing solution - a wide led head lamp and an accessible inspection pen light when is necessary in tide dark spaces.

Doing mechanics with a narrow beam light is like trying to work on a spreadsheet on your phone, sure you can only interact with one cell at a time but often you need to navigate between cells and see the bigger picture which is a lot easier to do on a desktop computer.

The type of led makes a huge difference these flat wide spill unfocused light are likely the COB style. Not useful for a flashligh but great for flat efficient lighting like for photography etc.

under dash work is typically the closest (forced) use case. Try to find this "bar light" type without the battery behind your head as a lot of times you are laying on your head and you also can't afford that small , but critical , loss of um..headroom lol.

I use headlamps all the time in the shop. My only problem with them is that I have to click through 4-5 gimmicky lighting options (flashing red, red, flashing white) to turn it off. If I go past the off button I have click another 4-5 times to get it off. I’d like one light style and one click on, and one click off. Sorry, haven’t had anyone to unload that on. Feels good.

Ive gone through quite a few and have found the Milwaukee 2163 headlamp works the best for me. The focused beam on low is great. Swappable batteries are convenient

Looks good! Long battery life is important to me, and usually these cheaper array lights don't have the life I prefer. I get pissed when a light can't do 10 hours, lol

Solar strip, w/ recharge feature that would be the best. Maybe, even a fluorescent glow dot on each end. And get rid of the excess, battery junk.

Hello again, Doc Thank you for another Great Video 👍 I all ready have two head lamps. I agree that they are very useful. How long will the battery last while in use? How does it take to charge? Again thank you 👍

Does it stay in place without the center strap from front to back? I tend to like those headbands better. With that said that seems like a good light. I also didn't care for the cheapie ones like that. I have an amazing light a Fenix HP25R but always looking for something else.

The band is robust so staying in place is not a problem for me. But if you want to run down mountain trails at night, a top strap would be welcome. However the limited reach of the light would be the real concern.

And in certain conditions the battery pack at the back of the head could make this irrelevant. Seems like perhaps it could be taken off of the webbing but I dunno how easily it might be to hook it somewhere else
