Headlamps help

[marker9911]

From what I have seen zebra light seems to be king. But just wondering if anyone has had any hands on experience with acebeam h30 it would be hand being able to charge on the mountain with a power pack. Seeing if they are good or to shy away from them! Thanks for your time

I cant help with the brands you are asking about but what I will offer up is to have TWO headlamps with you. I run both a battery and a re chargeable petzyls

Anything made by Petzl is great. It’s all I buy.....

I have the Zebra Light H600Fw Mk IV 18650 XHP35 Floody Neutral White headlamp.
I tend to avoid the brightest setting because it heats up a lot, but it's very bright. The reason I got it was because we got asshole'd coming off a ridge in Idaho at night last Oct. It was steep and thick and I really wanted a light that I could see much further to pick a better line. It took some googling/research to find the batteries, and I ended up ordering 2 18650s and a charger from IMRbatteries.com. The protected circuit is not needed on the battery as it probably won't turn on due to the added length of the battery, and the Zebra light has a protection circuit already. I ended up cutting off the protection circuit of the batteries I ordered.

Black diamond Spot 325 has been great for me.. runs 8 hours on Medium. or up to 200 hours on its lowest setting. I bring extra AAAs and Im set for the week.

I purchased a black diamond storm 400 earlier in the year and cant complain about it yet. More features than I need
