I love flashlights and that includes headlamps. Being a gear tester for a bunch of companies (and an avid outdoor enthusiast), I've tried dozens and dozens of headlamps through the years. These are the 5 best headlamps that I seem to be grabbing the most in 2020 anyway. I'll talk about the features of the headlamps, and the pros and cons. Enjoy!

I love the Fenix and Olight lights. Own both brands and very happy with the quality. I have the Fenix PD35 Tac 2600mah lithium ion rechargeable with direct connection using micro USB into battery and it can use the CR123a batteries as back up. My O light rechargeable gun light uses same magnet for recharge as Olight Head lamp so it will be a good combo if I get the Olight head lamp since it can also use the CR123a batteries as back up. Thanks for video!

My dad uses some pretty janky headlamps working around the farm. All of these would be an upgrade for him, but is there one in particular that you would say gives the greatest amount of light/visibility?

@michaelmcphee2930 3 года назад

I love my Aussie Knog Bilby 400 lumens because of its small but sleek design, has medical grade silicon easily adjustable waterproof strap which you don't notice on your skin in any weather. It's way easier to adjust around your head. Has all the lighting modes you'd ever want but is programmable with its own app from your phone to personalise your preferred lighting modes. USB A plugs directly into PC to charge or power bank. Choice of colours. Weighs 90g.

@MHoff-wm4jk 4 года назад

I feel like you have enough of a following to suggest they use usb-c. Micro usb is outdated and no longer the standard. I really like the size/weight but keeping a micro usb around for 1 or 2 items is not worth it. Nothing should be recommended if the company is not willing to keep up with usb-c. Thanks for the video as always great info and very informative.

Your audio is crisp, which mic do you use?

@not1au 3 года назад

The Olight is really nice. There's a lot of good headlamps out there and one of the most important parts of a headlamp is the headband. Fenix has a really good headlamp but I wouldn't have it if it was given to me because the headband is non replaceable. Heat and sweat are not friends of elastic so if you use the headlamp a lot you will eventually have to replace the headband.

As always, great vid. Although none of these jump out at me. I'm not exactly sure what I am looking for in a headlamp lol. Some of them definitely looked like the buttons would be difficult to use with gloves, I think that might be one of my priorities

@LastLineOfDefense 4 года назад

Yeah the Biolite, Klarus, and Claymore lights definitely have buttons on the smaller size, and take a bit of dexterity to operate.

So I know this is over a year old, but got a question. So I work under my car a lot also. Aren't the lights with the battery packs in the rear, uncomfortable? What do you do about it?

@AdamLogan313 2 года назад

I think there might be some where you can adjust the battery pack to the side of the headband or wear it somewhere else like belt loop or maybe suspenders lol.

@ARCSTREAMS 2 года назад

i have an ozark trail 200 lumen head lamp and it says ipx4 so does that mean i can not wear it in heavy rain which makes no sense since im sure they must have this in mind when designing it to be used outdoors by campers and fishermen etc

@acekeianar 4 года назад

What's got the best focus and range in your opinion? I'm a esk8r and I have lights on the bottom of my board which give me ground visibility, but I want to take a headlamp and fix it it my helmet. (I'm going to be using strong velcro tape which is already affixed to my helmet and just fix the proper velcro to the other side. It's sturdy, I'm not worried about it staying on, I just want to see the road ahead when I'm riding at night so I don't eat it on a pot hole that, on a board, I'd consider a sink hole.

@tedjohansen6535 9 месяцев назад

Good stuff man. For you and any others just make sure not to drown out the low light with your eye level light. My best setups skating and mountain biking are to have a much stronger light down low because the shadow angles show texture better. But of course a spotlight on the head is important too for looking to the sides (and potholes like you said). Red light in the back good idea too. I rig bike lights on top of my longboards with foam and zip ties - its a pain to set up but works great. Id be curious to know what you use. If it helps for headlight, i use a bike helmet when skating so i can thread straps at an angle through the many large air holes. Bike lights like niterider have really good beam pattern and durability, but i can see how a headlamp with velcro would work better on a skate helmet! I might try that next so thanks for that tip

@acekeianar 9 месяцев назад

@@tedjohansen6535 hey ty. Could you inform me of what I measure I should be looking for. I know lumens isn't the best gauge

@tedjohansen6535 9 месяцев назад

@@acekeianar Ya lumens are often lies, especially cheap foreign brands. Im spoiled on lumens with the fancy bike lights (850 on head), but id say at least 300 on the head if you can. Not sure what you have on the board. If youre going less than 15 mph you could probably do less. Another thought, if you velcro a heavy light on the front of your helmet, it will probably make it tip forward. Id go for one with a rear battery pack to balance the weight.

@igorsucic3620 3 года назад

I had many headlamps, nitecore and zebralight are great, but if I had to buy new one I will go with Fenix HM65R. I don't know why he did not include them... And if you need a lamp for long run, lamp that uses 18650 battery ist must have... And avoid Skillhunt, had bad expirience with them, they are not impact resistent.. but the Fenix, Zebralight and Nitecore are gret, had great expirience with them, all of them uses 18650, and I uses them on daily basis for my work..

Justin Defazio he only reviews gear he gets for free and get paid on for affiliate sales. My guess is Petzl and Black Diamond didn’t meet that criteria.

Lol, salty boy. But no I used to primarily use petzl headlamps, but not many of them are natively rechargeable without removing the battery pack, so that's just an extra burden. I get them for free and everything has affiliate links, so that argument is entirely void, but good try!

@CroakerOutdoors 4 года назад

Last Line Of Defense just curious why do you go rechargeables? My thinking is a AAA model is easier to toss in. Kinda like gas cars vs electric. Fill up and go. Rechargeables also generally have much higher self discharge rates than say Alkaline AAA.

@LastLineOfDefense 4 года назад

Yeah pros and cons. If it were a go pack or stored for long periods of time, the AAA options are good, but for regular use, they are just more wasteful and/or burdensome.

@darylarchuleta7604 4 года назад

I hauled oil on night shift for almost 5 years driving a tanker truck. South Texas, West Texas oil fields and some work in New Mexico. Darkness, working alone in very remote areas 70 hrs a week. Found replacing AAA got tiresome and expensive. Found Cree headlamp, rechargeable batteries. Bought extra batteries and separate charger. Full charge lasted days, could also plug battery pack into micro usb in between loads. Had the lamp screwed into the hard hat. That light was incredible! 1600 lumens and on wide would light up three 15 ft tall, 500 barrel oil storage tanks side by side. Used in the rain. Only replaced it once. 16/17 bucks. Had to be careful buying batteries though. Lots of knock offs for sale. Could be cumbersome to wear for camping or running though understandably. Since then, different job now moving oil field equipment I've used an Energizer headlamp 3AAA. Rarely need it. So like you say, changing batteries isn't a big deal as it stays in my bag most of the time. I'm in the market now for different reasons and your reviews have been a huge help. Thank you
