Powerful headlamps & high efficiency LED headlights

Back to the Gear Index Those that use a headlamp regularly for work around the camp or shop find it hard to go back to a standard handheld flashlight. Use your head... free your hands. We test it. We use it. So we can recommend it.

A Solar Headlamp? Are you kidding?... No joke. We get asked what you're supposed to do when it's dark... wel... turn it 'on'. The headlamp plugs into its little solar panel (or car adaptor) and charges during the day so you can use it at night or in the dark. It's quite bright, and really great at campsite tasks. And without having to worry about dead batteries, it is loved by hikers & backpackers. What is an LED? LED stands for "Light Emitting Diode", a semiconductor device that emits a beam of light when an electric current is applied to it. The great thing about LEDs is that they use very little power to generate light. In fact they use 1/10th the amount of power to generate the same amount of light as a standard incandescent bulb, and half the power of a compact fluorescent. This means that a 5-Watt LED compares closely with a 1-Million candle power 55-Watt Halogen! LEDs are finding more and more applications all the time due to their lifetime which is usually up to 100,000 hours (almost 10 years if you were to leave it 'on'), their reliability, & continuous advances in their power. There was a time when LEDs were only useful for indicator lights on stereos & personal electronics, but now with 1, 3, & 5 watt units, and cluster formats for smaller LEDs, they are slowly replacing standard bulbs in everything from traffic lights, bus tail lights & turn signals, and of course flashlights, headlamps & lanterns. As a basis for comparison, a 1-Watt LED elements will typically shine beyond 200 feet (60m), while the 5 & 7 cluster LED models are comparable to standard halogen flashlights, providing uniform floodlight over 20m (60ft). Choose LED products if reliability, long battery life, & durability are important to you. Look for the Luxeon, Cree, and Nichia names for the best quality & latest power technology.
