Best headlamp (waterproof with replaceable batteries)

[philos]

Zebralight is hard to beat. I have a few different brands but usually come back to my Zebralight.

I just use a cheapy from Amazon that uses 18650 batteries and has an on board rechargeable controller.

But, if someone wanted to buy this one for me, I would write an honest review

Petzl Super Duper Headlamp

+1 for a Zebralight

+1 on the Petzl Core.

Same here: Love the Petzl Actic and Actic Core. Simple intuitive toggle button, red light for duck and ungulate hunting. Sometimes wish the battery runtime was a little longer, especially on the full 450 lumen (think it's max 2 hours with the Core battery). Al's had them for half off a few months ago and scooped up a few for like $35, couldn't beat that

I think the best approach is 2 headlamps. I have a cheap Amazon Peak style that has lasted over a year with hard use. Previously I have had Black Diamond, Zebra and Nitecores quit on me. Usually when you really need it.

My zebralight is simply not working this year. Battery seems to charge fine. Do the bulbs break or fail on these? How would I check what it is? I just don't love it yet. Can only choose floody or spot and can't adjust the beam like my older black diamond etc.
