The photo of the tire being looked at is an actual picture I made without retouching or enhancement of any kind - this little baby is really bright!
If you are into backpacking - caving - spelunking or any sport from jogging to cycling this light is for you.
After hurricane Katrina and the events of this summer in the midwest we all have an emergency go kit ready - if not we should - emergency lighting is at the top of the list in just about everyone's book - this lightweight powerful light is perfect.
The super-comfortable headband is easy to adjust and provides wonderful ease of use. The light is compact and light-weight so it is easy to wear for long periods of time without discomfort.
The white light is adjustable and provides a bright distinct light which is very useful.
There is also a red light which you can use at night to look at maps or directions in your vehicle without compromising your night vision.
The light is adjustable from straight ahead to a downward tilt which casts a easy to view beam of light right in front of you.
Perfect for so many uses that it would be impossible to list them all.

I ride a Honda SilverWing Motorcycle and have one of these packed in my Scooter trunk - if I have a problem at night not only will I have a safe easy to use source of light - but I will have both hands free to do any work or maintenance required.
I also keep one in the glovebox of my Dodge Ram 1500 - have a flat tire at night? Now you have both hands to safely take care of the problem.
During the heat of summer here in Austin I like to walk my dogs at night after it has cooled down - this awesome light not only clearly shows my path but also makes me visible to traffic!
This device is so practical - it even comes with a dimmer so you can use this as a reading light - perfect for reading without bothering your partner.
