| What do you guys recommend for an LED flashlight to attach to a cap or over the head for when walking to tree stand or using while using a climber that your hands are a bit busy. What do you guys use or think is best and is affordable. |
| Up until about a year ago I was using a Petzyl that my brother-in-law bought for me from REI about 9 years ago. It was a near top of the line headlamp that he payed quite a bit for, but it was before LEDs lights became popular and it runs on a few AA batteries. A year ago I purchased PrincetonTec APEX Pro for a killer deal from a website (don't recall the site). This thing puts my Petyzl to shame. Granted, I think that is more due to the LED lights and newer tech than the brand. Since my EDC light, weapon lights, and rifle reflex sights all use CR123 lithium batteries I wanted to purchase a headlamp that also did. I prefer all my electronic platforms utilize the same battery type. My PrincetonTec APEX Pro is now my primary headlamp and my Petyzl is the backup. |
