    Good information. Please note that lithium ion batteries are rechargeable but primary lithium (manganese, sulfur dioxide) batteries are disposable.

    Lux isn't mentioned, but candela almost always is and that's basically the same thing.

    Great shear. TY Do you prefer the beam to be wide or narrow ? I like the wide for camp and working. Any suggestions on wide beam. I tested a few of the ones on amazon and thay are near garbage. Yellow strip in rubber strap.

    Didn’t sound like a fool to me. Actually it was good info. Only thing that would have made it better is to show us which headlamp he was using.

    Thank you! For most of the video, I was wearing the Petzl RL Swift headlamp. For the red, blue, and green light stuff, I was wearing the Petzl Aria 1 RGB - Jake
