I have several of these Princeton Tec Apex light and have found that the work pretty well. But with a little work the could really be great. I use these light in the very cold weather. Pro: VERY Bright light, Comfortable to wear. Con : 1. After about a year the elastic head band looses it elasticity. So it is loose and runs out of adjustment. 2 The head band slips out of the slots. Needs and "S" Curve to hold them in. 3. The Battery Level System is VERY deceiving. It flashes red and blicks indicatin low battery when the voltage is 12.4 Volt. VERY confusing in cold weather. 4. Needs a sticker to tell what the low battery light is and what it does. 5. The Plastic insulation from the barrty to the light is very stiff in cool and Terrible in Cold weather. The little plastic clip break in the cold. 6 The Switches are to small to feel with gloves on. 7 The Battery lock device is stiff and can be broken easily if you turn it the wrong way.Read full review

Love the light...WHEN IT WORKS. It stopped working after a few uses. the light just turns off and will not turn back on unless you remove the batteries and reinstall repeatedly. Very annoying! If it would work I would give it 5 stars for brightness but it is garbage.

This light works well for caving and those dark nights on the mountain. I have used this light extensively and it has yet to let me down. It is bright and can be adjusted to wherever you are looking giving a spot on view of what's in the dark! It is has a very efficient run time on batteries and this is good as batteries will run approx. $10.00 for the pair. Strongly recommend this light!!!

This is a great headlamp, great brightness to weight ratio. The C123 batteries will last on regular mode through the night and are light weight. The battery indicator light and 'blink' feature help make sure you know when to change the battery. Such a great light that I have two.

I have used this light for a year now and use it several times a week,awesome light! holds up to a ton of abuse. Burns battery on brightest setting but most of the time you do not need to have it that bright. Its as bright as a regular lamp on low. I now own 2.
