I recently purchased an Energizer headlight at Wal-mart for 10.88 to test out the headlight concept.
After a late day fishing trip on Monday, that lasted 'till 7pm, I now think they are very usefull.
Tying on lures and unhooking fish in the dark are made much easier with out trying to hold onto a flashlight.
The area I was fishing was very rocky and steep, and the headlight made the walk out easier as well.
The Energizer headlight runs on three AAA batteries, and has one red led and two white leds. The sliding switch is located on top of the light, center position is off, left is the red led, and right is the two white leds.
One thing I liked about the Energizer was the ease in which the single red l.e.d. could be used.This is helpful in keeping your night vision intact. I used the single red led the most. Many headlights come on "high" and you have to keep pressing the switch to get to the lower levels, or the red led, if they have one.
Oh, I almost forgot, the fishing was good, five striped bass and three largemouths.
