A nice, bright headlamp at night, especially with kids and gear can really make the experience great because... have you ever tried to fumble around in the dark carrying a bunch of stuff with grumbling, tired, stumbling kids in your wake because no one can see properly? You don't need to try it. I can tell you right now, it's not fun.
This head lamp has four settings. (Other than off) You change the setting just by pushing the button:
- The first push is a nice bright light. (Provides plenty of light for multiple people to see when getting back to the tent or house without trouble)
- The second setting is slightly less bright than the first. This setting, I don't use much because I like lots of light. BUT for purposes of preserving the batteries when a whole lot of light is not needed, I do think it's a good setting.
- The third setting is a set of red lights on the sides of the head lamp. Again, I have not found much personal use for it but my kids think it's freaking amazing! :)
- And last, the red and white lights set of a bright flashing pattern. This is not something that I have used yet, but it is a really good way to get someone's attention so I really think it would make a good emergency light.
I also really like the actual strap. It can tighten small enough to fit my 2 year old and big enough to fit my large fathers head with room to spare. The fabric is soft and does not irritate the forehead at all. The strap is also thicker than you would normally find.
The light takes three AAA batteries and they do not come with it, so if you don't already have them, it would be good to change that before it arrives! You can also adjust the direction (straight forward or down) that the light points. I really like this head lamp and I would definitely recommend it.
Check it out for yourself on Amazon and take a look at my video review there: http://www.amazon.com/BYB-Flashlight-Preserving-Adjustable-Shockproof/dp/B010ERPE2C?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_search_detailpage
