Really Good Lightweight Head Lamp
I use a small single-strap head lamp very frequently for my craft work as it requires that I see very small pieces and details with as much clarity as I can possibly get, so there are 3 things I must have in a headlamp: It must be comfortable to wear straight on my head without a hat underneath, it must be lightweight as I'm frequently bending my head over and looking down at my work, and it must be as bright as possible.
This head lamp hits all 3 marks.
Of the past 4 different 'small single-strap' head lamps I've had, this one is just as light, the strap is very strong and is not likely to ever stretch out and become loose and floppy, and this one is the BRIGHTEST of all of them by far.
The light fixture itself is plastic and is not the kind of lamp you'd want if you do nighttime construction work or the like, unless you're really gentle with it. But then again, it's so inexpensive that you can buy half a dozen of these for the price of some of the heavy-duty metal ones.
If I lost or damaged both of these somehow - I would immediately buy them again without even needing to look at any others. For light-duty, these are really good and I would definitely recommend them.
Also, the seller has been communicating to make sure I like them from the day they shipped. So that's another plus.
