SCOUT The term ultra-light and compact is re-defined with the Scout headlamp. Weighing approximately two ounces, it's small enough to fit into your pocket and forget it's there. The unique multifunctional hinged lamp housing directs light where you need it, and is designed to detach quickly and easily from the lightweight head strap for use on your cap, backpack strap, belt and other gear. Engineered to last a lifetime, the illumination comes from 2 Ultrabright LEDs that are impact resistant, shockproof and never require replacement ensuring you'll always have light when you need it. The Scout also sports the innovative electronically controlled switch system which provides easy switching between 3 levels of light output and two emergency signaling modes.
Bright LEDs with three intensity and two strobe settings

ok for the price May 13, 2007

Simply put...you get what you pay for. For hiking it does the job at night. But many hikers had lights that were a lot brighter, so i found myself grabbing their light to outside after dark.

great small headlamp Sep 30, 2008

I recently used this headlamp for a camping trip. It is a great small headlamp. It is lightweight, bright, & feels comfortable on. You are able to direct the light somewhat (staight ahead to down), but that same feature hides the on/off button when the light is straight ahead, so you are forced to have to rotate the lamp down to get to the switch. It's just slightly annoying.
I have not had to buy or change batteries yet, so I can't comment on that.
The design made it easy to hang from other places to use as a lamp in the tent as well as its intended use.
I felt that the elastic was a good comfortable width and easy to adjust.
I would recommend this product.

Lightweight and does the job Sep 09, 2007
By R. Lie I actually clip the light to my shorts (and secure with the drawstrings) to run at night. It does a good job lighting the path in front of me so I can avoid potholes or debris on the path (branches, rocks, dog poop, etc.). I also like the fact that you can tilt the light. The battery life gives me about one month of use, but you can order cheap batteries on ebay.

Good headlamp for the price May 12, 2007
By April Goodwin I bought this headlamp to use as task light for a dental missions trip to Costa Rica. It is very lightweight and comfortable and I liked being able to position the angle of the light. However, for my purposes, I really needed a brighter focused beam. The light seemed to be too dispersed for me (at least for looking in someone's mouth!). Considering the price, I thought it worked well, battery life was good, weight was very comfortable for long wearing times, and the light sufficed, though as mentioned, it was not ideal for my purposes.

If you're looking for a super bright light, go away!
However, if you want something you can stick in your backpack and not notice the weight, something to help you see on a dark hiking trail or around your campsite, this works fine.
I take it on all of my day hikes. I use it around home for small tasks, and let my sister use it for reading at night in a tent without disturbing others.
Batteries are easily obtainable for a good price online.
The five settings are nice, but I only use two...the brightest and the dimmest...the strobes are good to have if I ever need them.
I haven't used this in the rain.
