At first, I used a Petzel headlamp, but unfortunately its batteries leaked. Now I have a Princeton and I can compare—the current one is better in my opinion, fits better, and has a red light. I can recommend it to those who are undecided.
A lightweight and compact headlamp with a maximum output of 200 lumens. It is equipped with four Ultrabright LEDs, three of which emit a wide beam of white light and one of which emits red light.
It is made of durable composite and is weatherproof according to IPX4 rating.
The model is equipped with a handle with adjustable head angle, an easily accessible battery compartment and a large on/off button. The headlamp's mounting is compatible with MOLLE/PALS systems. An elastic band provides comfortable wear.
The headlamp is powered by 3 AAA batteries included or rechargeable NiCad and NiMH batteries.
Operating modes/lighting time/range:
White light:
- High - 200 lumens / 5.5 h / 21 m,
- Low - 30 lumens / 41 h / 9 m,
Red light:
- High - 12 lumens / 12 h / 5 m,
- Low - 1.5 lumen / 130 h / 1 m.

Camouflage MultiCam
MultiCam, a cutting-edge camouflage pattern, was created in 2002 by Crye Precision, a US company, in collaboration with the United States Army Soldier Systems Center (Natick Labs) as part of the Objective Force Warrior program. The aim was to develop a versatile camouflage that performs effectively across diverse terrains and fluctuating environmental conditions. Comprising seven colors that blend seamlessly between shades of green, brown, and beige, the MultiCam pattern adapts dynamically to its surroundings, adopting green tones in wooded areas and browns and beiges in desert landscapes. In Central and Eastern Europe, it excels during the fall and amidst dried vegetation. MultiCam has achieved global acclaim and is utilized by many armed forces and special units. In 2010, the US Army officially adopted this camouflage for troops in Afghanistan, replacing the previous Universal Camouflage Pattern (UCP). It is also available to civilians, making it a favorite among military and airsoft enthusiasts.

Very good tactical flashlight, perfect for discreet use. It starts in red mode at the lowest power, and by holding the button longer you can switch to white mode, which works great. This is exactly the kind of equipment I needed. The build quality is flawless. I haven't checked the waterproofing yet. The price is high, but definitely worth it.

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