At first, I used a Petzel headlamp, but unfortunately its batteries leaked. Now I have a Princeton and I can compare – in my opinion, this one is better, fits better and has a red light. I can recommend it to those who are undecided.

Camouflage MultiCam
MultiCam is a state-of-the-art camouflage pattern developed in 2002 by US company Crye Precision in cooperation with the United States Army Soldier Systems Center (Natick Labs) as part of the Objective Force Warrior program. Its goal was to create a versatile camouflage pattern that is effective in varied terrain and changing environmental conditions. The MultiCam pattern consists of seven colors, creating gradient transitions between shades of green, brown and beige. As a result, it dynamically adapts to the background, adopting shades of green in forested areas or browns and beiges in desert regions - in Central and Eastern European environments, it works particularly well in autumn and among dry vegetation. MultiCam has gained worldwide recognition and is used by numerous armed forces and special units. In 2010, the camouflage was officially adopted by the US Army as the camouflage pattern for soldiers stationed in Afghanistan, replacing the earlier Universal Camouflage Pattern (UCP). The pattern is also available to civilian users, making it a popular choice among military or airsoft enthusiasts.

A very good tactical torch, ideal for discreet use. It starts in red mode with the lowest power, and by holding the button for longer, you can switch to white mode, which works brilliantly. This is exactly the kind of kit I needed. The build quality is flawless. I haven't tested its waterproofness yet. The price is high, but it's definitely worth it.

I have been using this headlamp for a long time and it has never let me down. The ability to turn on the red light first is very useful, especially when you want to remain unnoticed.
