Tools and Hardware Reviews of Petzl E49P TacTikka Plus 4-LED Headlamp, Black
Customer Review: Useful in so many ways
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great product. It fits well, it feels good on the head and it puts out plenty of light. To save batteries you can set the light to different levels of brightness including a blinking mode.
I originally bought it to help with cleaning my digital camera's sensor. Since then I've used it for many other purposes. One of the best uses of this product I hadn't originally thought of was for reading books in low light. I bought a clamp-on book light a year ago and it's fine, but sometimes awkward. The headlamp does a much better job though.
The uses for this great product stretch perhaps as far as your imagination.
Customer Review: Great-but only if it's the solo light source
Summary: 4 Stars
This model of Petzl is really good but only if it has no competing light sources. So for night time,outside, all alone-just awesome. But if you are working in the garage or shop on some car or plumbing thing, the other lights will just wash out the LEDs. You will not get the the pinpoint lightup for the nooks and cranies that you need for work. However, turn out the overhead lighting and the Petzl will blaze. Incandescent light is just a better work light. The Petzl is lightweight, easy on the batteries, and I'm keeping it BUT I'm not throwing away my AAx4 incandescent 'tank' headbeam quite yet.Customer Review: Great Product
Summary: 5 Stars
We bought the headlamps for a one week camping trip through different National Parks in the United States and we used them in every weather condition. From heat in the desert to rain, ice and snow in the mountains. The performance was always very good and satisfying! The batteries lasted all the time and we did not need to change them once.
The red light keeps your nightvision and there is still enough light to see and read. The white light comes in three different brightnesses.
If ever I had to buy another headlight, I would buy this again!
Customer Review: Petzl E49P
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been using the headlamp for about a month. It works very well, is comfortable on the head or over a cap... adjustable strap is good. Light settings are perfect for my use... ice fishing, finding equipment in my fishtrap. The flip up red filter and on/off switch requires some dexterity, but with practice it is fine. The lights are bright for the size of the lamps. It is small and compact... a plus when you wear it on your head for extended periods of time. I think it is perfect for my use... a set of 3 AA batteries will probably last all season. I would recommend it.Customer Review: Will not ship to APO
Summary: 1 Stars
While this is a fine product, excellent military use in field conditions, it cannot be shipped to an APO in Afghanistan. I'm not quite sure about the logic in not being able to ship to an APO for a serviceman or someone else serving in a warzone. It's a United States zip code, the military will deliver it from there. It's not a sensitive item in any way shape or form and it's a sure bet that those receiving it will not be putting it into the hands of those seeking to do harm with it.
Jeez amazon, get a grip and do a reality check here.
