Tools and Hardware Reviews of Dorcy 41-2098 115 Lumen LED Headlight with 3 AAA Batteries
Customer Review: very bright, fairly light, and inexpensive
Summary: 5 Stars
Just got this and have used it for walking around in the pitch dark and for working behind my stereo changing wires. Very practical so far. Construction is good. Operation is easy. I like it.
Easy to adjust headband with over-the-top loop makes it secure and comfortable and easy to position the light. The light is a little bit bulky compared to the Petzl low-profile lamps, which have their place but are not as bright and can't cast a long-distance beam like this one does. But it's not big, and it feels light. You're not going to forget it's there, but it's not a drag to wear.
The body seems solid enough, but made of plastic not aluminum. The ratcheting adjustment gear is plastic but it seems like good high-impact plastic that should last. We'll see. I don't really want to be adjusting it a lot, just in case.
The light turns on with one click, one more click dims it to about 60% brightness. It's easy to quickly click on and off. It looks very water resistant, or even waterproof.
There's just one bulb, the 3W Luxeon, and both brightness settings cast the same shaped focused beam surrounded by a cone of usable light. At either setting the beam goes out to at least 100ft and you can also see some of your surroundings, so you're not looking through a straw, so to speak. For example, I stood about six feet from a wall and the beam was about 18 inches wide and the cone of light was about ten feet wide, a pretty good balance. The headlamps that cast a diffuse glow are nice, but can't light up the night like this one does, especially out to 100ft.
The bright setting is surprisingly bright, especially considering the 3 AAA battery pack. The dimmer setting is a good balance between not too bright and not too dim. You can really see what you're doing. It would be nice if there was one more dimmer setting but that's just nitpicking.
A good headlamp and a bargain at $20 with free shipping. $30 plus tax and shipping would be reasonable.
