My first headlamp was a Petzel, of course the batteries leaked. Now I bought a Princeton, I have a comparison, and I think the one I have now is better, fits better, and has a red light. For those undecided, I recommend it.
Lightweight, compact headlamp delivering up to 200 lumens of brightness. Outfitted with four Ultrabright LEDs: three emit a broad beam of white light, while one provides red illumination.
Constructed from robust composite materials and built to withstand weather conditions, rated at IPX4 for water resistance.
Features include an adjustable-angle mounting system, conveniently accessible battery compartment, and an oversized on/off switch. The mount integrates seamlessly with MOLLE/PALS systems. An elastic strap ensures a secure and comfortable fit.
Runs on 3 AAA batteries included in the package or compatible rechargeable NiCad and NiMH batteries.

White light:
- High – 200 lumens / 5.5 h / 21 m

Great tactical headlamp. One of the few for more covert operation - it starts with red modes (from weaker), but after holding the switch longer, there are white modes. That's what I needed. Flawless workmanship. I haven't tested the waterproofness yet. Expensive but highly recommend.

I have been using this headlamp for many months and it has never let me down. The red light can be turned on first, which is very helpful when you don't want to reveal your position.
