LED headlamps

Apparently all those miners have the right idea, because headlamps are a favorite tool of some of the most avid campers. But what makes these little lights so popular?

LED headlamps are a fantastic way to see what you’re doing in low light situations, while still keeping both your hands free. When you’re camping, that becomes very important. With the aid of a headlight, you can set up your tent, cook, or make a fire all with an adequate amount of light. Flashlights can be bulky to pack and leave you with only one hand to perform your tasks. As an added benefit, headlamps are simple and easy to use. You merely attach the strap to your forehead and turn the bulb on.

The only thing to keep in mind is that you don’t want to be stuck in the woods with a busted headlamp and no alternative light source. Consider packing two headlamps, or stash some extra batteries in case of emergency.
