Description of ThruNite TH20 520 Lumen CREE XP-L LED Headlamp Flashlight -Lightweight Waterproof IPX-8 EDC Headlamp For Indoor & Outdoor Hiking,Camping, Cycling - NW

A high output headlamp with max output of 520 lumens (CREE XP-L V6 LED) in turbo mode powered by one Li-ion 750mAh battery. The logarithmic scale brightness adjustment system allows any brightness from 1.6 lumens to 250 lumens. Furthermore, the TH20 features a built-in SOS signaling mode which is important when roaming out in the wild or confronting dangerous situations. Unlike other light-weight headlamps which are made with plastic, the TH20 is made with aircraft grade aluminum which gives it exceptional durability and excellent heat dissipation allowing it to maintain high output for extended periods of time. The advanced design gives the TH20 a light weight of 96g (battery excluded). The TH20 can also use an easy to get AA battery which makes it a great choice for daily reading, camping and a tool light when you want your hands free.

Spectacular headlamp for the price

This is just my initial impression and use, I'll update in a few months. This initial review is using a basic AA alkaline battery.EDIT - Update #1: With the Lithium Ion 14500 battery, on Turbo, this headlight throws some serious light. Seriously, I've never had/seen such a powerful headlamp before. I know of course there are even more powerful/brighter ones out there, but the limited research I've done on them is they start around $60. I can't see why I would need to travel with more than one…

Pros
  • ‎1 AA batteries required.
Cons
  • The IPX-8 waterproof rating may not be as high as some users require for extreme outdoor conditions

Single function headlamp

It is what it is.Likes:1. Ease of use. One power switch. On/Off.2. Quality of construction = durability.3. Trusted manufacturer.4. Size.5. Weight.6. Non-recharable battery.Dislikes:1. Price point.2. Single function. Basic hiking headlamp. Can not be dimmed or brightened. Single LED, one power.3. 180° lighting. Non focusing light beam.4. No emergency high intensity flashing strobe selection.I've purchased smaller hand held flashlights, from the same company, for just over 1/3 the price with more

Pros
  • Good light. Fairly light, small and bright. Easily adjustable beam and good battery life.
Cons
  • The 520 lumen output may be too bright for some users who prefer a dimmer light

Excellent product for $29.99, but neutral white tint is greenish.

Excellent product for $29.99, but neutral white tint is greenish.This is an excellent product for $29.99. It is well made, durable, and has "infinite" brightness control from firefly to full brightness. I am very happy with the product at this price point, but the neutral white tint is inferior to my neutral white Zebralight.One month review: I am still very happy with this product for $29.99. The strap, silicone, metal, and machining are all high quality. It is very lightweight…

Pros
  • ‎LED
Cons
  • The interface for switching between different light modes may be confusing or difficult for some users

Favorite mechanic work light

I use this for mechanic work, and it has exceeded expectations.Pro's:Beam pattern is a very wide and even flood light. Perfect for illuminating everything in your field of vision while working under a car. User interface is straightforward and easy. The dimmable feature is outstanding to dial up enough light to see, but not so much that it glares back and blinds you (when you're under the car and things are right in front of your face). It has been through several drops and been getting covered

Pros
  • ‎No
Cons
  • The ThruNite TH20 may have some difficulty staying in place on the user's head during physical activity
