One of the lightest headlamps on the market – and then this little genius even offers five different light functions!

The ultra compact and ultra-light Intensity 24 Head Torch from Lifesystems® weighs just 30 grams (including batteries) and the lamp itself is made of impact resistant ABS plastic. The measurements is a modest 33 x 36 x 28 mm.
But despite the small size, the newly developed ML-E Cree LED lamp shoots up to 24 lumens in a clear white glow.
Alternatively, you can choose to run the headlamp with lower brightness for near orientation or the blink function in situations where you want to call someone’s attention.
In order not to destroy night vision, you can alternatively choose to take advantage of the two red LEDs that are either steady or turned on to a SOS function.
You should also not be afraid to use Intensity 24 Head Torch when the weather really shows it’s teeth, for it meets the IPX6 standard, which means very strong hosing from all sides – in other words: Waterproof all-weather.
The adjustable headband is composed of elastic webbing, and the whole thing is run by 2 pcs. CR2032 batteries, which is included in the price.

I think the headlamp is super nice to wear head, especially because of the low weight. The fact that it can be mounted on the shadow of a cap or other locations makes it just much more versatile.
You should be aware of the relatively low battery life, so it might not be your primary headlight. The lamp, however, is ideal as a backup or emergency lamp, since it does not take much space.
I would like to see that the light could send SOS with the white LED instead of the red LED, as I want to be as visible as possible in an emergency.
