[madmullet]

got a black diamond head lamp last nigh while i was out shopping to get a pull out awning for the 4wd. i highly recomend this to anyone. its got a spotlight beam, 90 candle power, 2 side lights, 20candle power, 2 red led for enclosed spaces, all light strobe and the main light has a dimmer on it. very very bright light. i paid $79.95 for it.

I brought the same 6 months ago in Camo Green, its the best head lamp i have ever owned. I brought mine for $80.00 from a place in Burleigh Heads

Batteries last for ever in these units

camo is for cant see me stuff. Headlight is to be seen and to see. I dont understand

Looks like a nice little headlamp.

I just picked up a Led Lenser H7 headlamp. It's great for spot lighting when hunting and out on the boat as well. It's built like a tank with 170 lumens, 180m spot beam and focuses down to a flood light.

I also own the p7 hand torch which is brighter than most hand held spot lights and is the size of a 13cm maglite. I really rate and would recommend these torches to anyone, they are the best i have seen for the price and are built tough.

I was looking at getting one for night work fauna spotting....taxable of course They look like a great unit especially for the price!

When looking at the army disposal place (forgot the name), on Wardell st near the barracks, the guy said that these were very popular with the army lads...so I guess the cammo would suit their purpose well.

Just a word of advice

Down the track the angle adjustment will fail prob after warranty expires

Ive seen this happen to 3 of them

but good news

Email led lenser australia and tell them the problem

They ask you to send it back to them and they send out a replacement

Led lenser have very good customer service they have replace a headlamp and a switch for one of my torches without even asking for proof of purchase

Maybe a bit of grease or vasaline behind the pivot point on the teeth may prolong life

also another tip change out them batteries for enelopes or powerex cells will increase run time

Just saw the black diamond headlamps on sale 50% off on tv one of those outdoors and hiking places sorry can't remember the name of the place but it is well known, sorry Kurt you probably didn't want to here that

[johnus]

@Surfingant was it Ray's Outdoors?

[viper83]

Mate looks like a great lamp. I think it would be good to get a camo one, hey shortie.....

[Surfingant]

Nah Johnus it was mountain something I think, pretty sure there is one at Logan megacentre right opposite Anaconda

[Surfingant]

Just Googled it, Mountain Designs it is called they are having a spring sale

Here's the one I bought a while ago, bit more affordable and is like having a spotlight on your head http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=190494774609 The 'high beam' stretches about 50m very bright.

what usage do you get out of it

[Keen-as-fisho]

As in the rechargeable battery, I just recharged it after 6 camping trips and I didn't charge it when I got it so it may last a far while longer.

Lol.....camo doesn't matter in a headlamp, it kind of defeats the purpose with the bright light ha ha ha!!! I actually use a cheapo energiser one in flouro yellow, easier to find when I put it down out in the bush lol.
