[at-l] EMS sale on New Balance 805AT trail shoes; Save 35% off
I bought a Princeton Tec Aurora not too long ago. I got it for several
reasons:
1. It's a heck of a lot lighter than my older Princeton headlamp.
2. Bulbs and batters last MUCH MUCH MUCH longer.
3. It provides enough light for my usual purposes. I still have the
option of toting my heavier headlamp if I want..
4. It pivots, which was important to me.
I looked at a Petzl model, but it didn't pivot, so it was out.
I also looked at a Black Diamond led headlamp, but didn't like the fact
that it had wires running from the lamp to the battery pack on back. I
like the look of the Black Diamond, but the leds weren't really
protected at all, and that was an additional concern.
Last weekend I used my Aurora in Ape Cave (lava tube) up on Mount St.
Helens. It did fine. I could have used more light, but it was
sufficient.
