I'm looking to buy a new headlamp and unsure what to get. People have mentioned Cree, lenser and I have used petzel in the past. Any advice appreciated.

I've had a couple of the cree headlamps for nearly three years now. The charging circuit inside them is not the best so it pays to buy a separate charger for the batteries and put a UK plug on, only a couple of quid extra for the charger.People who live in glass houses have to answer the door.

Got a petzl ultra pure pwr,now in the cupboard due to a 2000lmn cree,less than a tenner off ebay,great burn time,melt your eyeballs out,silly bright,can't fault them,you can pick them up for around £7.00/8.00 at the min.
Bust my lense on that in my seat box,so just replaced it with this animal,5000lmns just stupidly bright,don't know about the burn time,as I havn't really used it yet.
Hope you like the pic,sure is the daddy
Ps,the chargers r useless/dangerous when using high powered batts,get on the nitecore intelligent chargers,the way fwd for sure...Last edited by hound hunter; 30-06-2014, 08:19 PM.

What's the battery life like on the 1800 cree s, was going to buy some new recharges batteries for my lenser, but just looked and the 1800 cree s are cheaper than a decent set of batteries. Might get one and use my lenser as a spare, also any particular brand?
