Best Headlamp EVER December 11, 2008
B. King (Maui)
I have owned this headlamp for years, and I rave about it all the time. I live in Hawaii and camp/hike alot. It is very bright, and so compact. the batteries last forever... I even helped to evacuate a beach at night when 200 people couldn't see to climb down a cliff, I stood at the top and lit the path for everyone with this handy little light. I carry it with me EVERYWHERE. One thing I really like is when the batteries do start to wear down, its a slow fade, you wont be left in the dark, you will have lots of time to know to change the batteries. Just remember when you take it off your head, hold the strap at the back of your head, or your hair will get tangled in it. LOVE THIS PRODUCT!!!
Handiest thing you could imagine July 21, 2008

I bought this for my wife as a christmas present. She's hooked on The Amazing Race and figured if the contestants have one, she wanted one as well! When I shopped for one, a woman told me about the Zipka plus. She kept it in her purse and used it constantly.
The unit was as good as was described. light, compact, and convenient. I found myself borrowing hers so much I had to get one for myself, hence this review.
I am a freelance programmer by profession, and find myself often digging around under desks and inside computers. This has made my life so much easier. I always have it with me, and put it on whenever I need, no matter how silly I may look to others. I also just used in during re-wiring a doorbell in an old house--a dirty, miserable job. But I couldn't have seen in the dark recesses in the back of a basement closet without it. A flashlight was just too cumbersome.
You'll find yourself using it in ways you never imagined, and never realized how much you need it until you have it!
This Headlamp is more than great July 5, 2008

I've bought this headlamp three years ago and it is always with me.
I use two sets of rechargeable batteries and never run out of power.
It is really truth, you will use this little treasure much more,than you could expect, as light source while doing something, and the beam is following your yes, keeping both your hands free. It can provide you enough light when you are reading, working, walking outside (or inside)in the darkness.
We had blackout for 24 hours just two days ago and headlamp was working continuously for more than three hours and I didn't see any difference in brightness. It's four LEDs provide more light than some other flashlights with 19-21 LEDs. It is expensive, but it worth it.I am surprise, that someone is complaining on quality of this product.
I didn't have ANY problems since I'd bought it in the beginning of 2005

Light me up April 26, 2008

This head lamp is amazing for the size. It really doesn't have powerful lighting, but you can see the trail (or street for that matter) ahead of you as you hike along. The LED lights last so long that you don't have to change your batteries for a long long time.
When I camp, I like small and light and this fits the bill!
Loving it! April 14, 2008
Seb (Davis, CA)
I love this headlamp. It is bright, the battery lasts forever and it is so light that I can barely feel it on my head. I also like that I can attach the headlamp almost anywhere (e.g. ceiling of the tent, wrist, water bottle), using the wire strap. I bought one for my dad and he also loves it.
The only "problem" with the headlamp is that it is so small that it is easy to loose.
