PEAX Headlamp

[Juan_ID]

What is the problem with the band you all speak of? I’ve been using one for a few months and haven’t had any issues. I bought mine on sale after using Costco headlamps for years and I have been happy with mine.

I think the band intersection with the housing (where it rides on your forehead) is not as comfortable as some headlamps. But for the price, I have no complaints(sofirn). I just used mine for a 9 day hunt and still had battery left when I got home.

Durability was the big issue for me. The bands lose their elasticity fast, at least on the two I have.

Anybody compare the peax to the fenix hm75r? The fenix is another bright red headlamp ive been considering.

good to hear! any link on getting an upgraded bracket? I have used a lot of BD headlamps but if the PEAX is better than that, it's worth the money in my book.

I'd be happy to post the .stl file for anyone who also has a 3d printer and wants to make their own bracket.

I own 4, they arn't the BEST ever, but they work for what I like, easy on off, 4 seconds to lock, very bright white and red, and rechargable works best for my system. I liked the idea of the Fenix, but I've had issues with two of the, so I tried the Peax, the plastic does break, but I had a member on here 3-d print me some way stronger ones? zero issues once I did that. Ive ran black diamonds for 15 years but I like these more.

Won't be trying anything else for awhile I don't believe.

also the Chinese ones are the same, just not as nice? button and quality isn't AS good, also this is all just my opinion, but i'm not a trendy guy, I do what works for me, not the popular thing.

Who 3-D prints the plastic ?

I’m tired of breaking
