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.

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.
