 GREAT WORK LIGHT! 11 hours on high beam! Still had some life left! Jul 05, 2010
I'm a post production engineer and this make a great work light! We often are working in tight not very well lit areas, doing troubleshooting, installing equipment and wiring. Being able to have a bright light wherever you look has been a tremendous boost to my productivity. You are never working in a shadow.
I used these the first day I got them and ran the batteries 11 hours straight on the high setting and they were only a little dim. I don't know how much I could have got out of them as I switched them out for new batteries. The batteries are a little pricey but for me the productivity increase offsets the price. Highly recommend.

Two different flashights being rated here - please read! Jun 14, 2010
I was reading the reviews here and noticed some contradictions and realized that the reviews were of two different but similar headlamps. The black and yellow versions to choose from are not the same and you need to read the product information for both to determine which one fits your needs better. Simply put the black one uses a special lithium battery and has two brightness settings and the yellow one uses AAA alkaline and has three brightness settings. Light output and run times also differ. You can toggle between the two versions and their descriptions using the color choice options at the top of the web page.

 Streamlight Argo HP High performance Headlamp Mar 29, 2010
This is a well constructed, weather resistant, rugged very bright headlamp. It is ideal for cold weather hiking since the lithium batteries tend to keep their charge longer than conventional batteries in the cold. The C4 lamp easily lit objects 100 feet away. The on/off high/low intensity button is all sealed so water will not get in. The battery container is also well sealed as is the lamp assembly. It comes with two sets of head straps - one for use on your head and the other for use on a helmet. It is comfortable and not too heavy.
I originally bought this for a different reason - indoor use. I work with certain ultrasound equipment that requires a dimmed room, so dim that I couldn't see the area I was working on well. This headlamp was too bright for this use. After using the light, my eyes were adapted to bright light and I couldn't see the ultrasound screen well.
The only design flaw that I encountered is that the on/off button does not have any hard cover or shield on it. After rolling it up and throwing it in my back pack and stuffing in a lot of gear around it, the button was pressed on and the light left on for a day. If you pack carefully, this should not be an issue.
Overall I like this light and recommend it. I live in Maine where the winter days are cold and short. It is great for evening cross country skiing or winter mountain climbing. The lithium batteries are more expensive but reduce the weight for the amount of power they provide. I recommend buying a 10 pack of batteries, since the price is substantially less per battery than buying a two pack at local stores. They last for years.
Great Miniature Light Jan 04, 2010

If you are looking fow a mini light that provides adequate clear light at three intensity levels with a battery check indicator and strobe,this is your baby.
The light comes with (3)three AAA alakline batteries sealed with an O'Ring
on a sliding track inside the weather proof housing. The lens is adequately protected with a thick rubber bevel to prevent damage incase you bump the light.
Two adjustable elastic straps to secure the light to your head for comfort.
A good quality rubber strap is included if you want to mount the light on a hard hat / helmet The battery life is adequate at all intensity levels.
Buy it! You just might fall in love with the convenience of having this mini light at your finger tips.
great light Dec 28, 2009
Very bright light, far reaching on high setting. Low setting is good for working up close. Handles the abuse of a steel mill environment. Highly recommend
