TrustNoone (tx usa)
pros: very bright; very durable; batteries last a long time; battery life indicator; short distance lighting(clear filter) works great
cons: no red filter; sold separately
paid around 45 dlls and it's what your really wanted when you bought that 20 dollar one.
 Good Not great November 20, 2009

i got the sand colored one but other than that its the same light. Many reviewers said that is was a supper bright light. well it is but only in turbo mode and for that you must keep your finger on the button (cant let go). The low light is good for reading especially with the diffuser on (i keep the white on the light and the red in the clip). the high is good for walking around even looking at far distances. But its not a replacement for a good old hand mag light 6D. i knot its about 100X lighter, but i don't know if its worth $50.00. its a good light if you want yuor hands free and it is light and will stay on your head, just don't head bang. it would be the perfect light for $20.00, but since that will never happen lets say $30.00. if you want a small lightweight headlamp for working on your car or changing a flat on the highway at night or going for a stroll i would grab a 2AA mag light a headband and some duct tape, and with the change buy a LED something or another for the serious light. 10-15 vs 45. or just get the Petzl E49P TacTikka Plus its almost as god but cheaper and might go down even more. you don't really need all the diffusers.
portable, bright, thumbs up October 18, 2009

I feed feral cats and often it is still dark outside when I feed. I need my hands free and this light does the trick. It puts a nice amount of light and has different options whether you want more of a beam or softer, wider light. I like it very much and highly recommend it.
Great little light September 9, 2009

compact, durable, bright, spot or flood modes, fairly good battery life. No complaints at all. I have another petzl light that I also really like. These things are great for having reliable light all the time.
Great Functionality. August 16, 2009

I have had the basic Tikka model, and then the Tikka Plus (actually still have both and use as a backup), however the Tikka XP is the best yet. Quite an improvement over the Tikka Plus model. Have read some review that knock this for weight. This would only be an issue for trail running. Other than that, I didn't notice the increase in weight over the Tikka Plus. There may be a better light but I have not come across one that is this small and light weight. I don't think anyone would be disappointed with this light. Just got back from 1-1/2 weeks in the Minnesota Boundary Waters canoeing with multiple portages a day, no issue with the switch turning the light on, which was in some review I had read as well.
