Great LED headlamp: Petzl Tikka Plus 2

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


One
of the first recommendations I made when first writing about urban
survival was how great headlamps are. Though they are more commonly used
for hiking, climbing and cave exploration, the ability to have both
hands free makes a big difference. Even though “tactical” lights have
their place and a small LED light can be invaluable, one thing I learned
from my years of irregular electrical power supply was that when the
lights go out frequently you just have to get on with your life in spite
of it. This means preparing food, washing the dishes, cleaning,
working, fixing stuff, and while a bigger and more powerful flood lamp
can come in handy, a headlamp that puts light exactly where you want it
simply works better and is more efficient in terms of batteries.

Petzl Tikka Plus 2

These days we see tons of “tactical” flashlights, some better than
others, most of them made in China, with acceptable standards of quality
though nothing to brag about.

Petzl on the other hand is a company that mostly makes climbing and
cave exploration gear. The thing about climbing equipment is that if it
fails, you die. Its that simple. If your Petzl harness comes apart, its
bye-bye. If your Petzl headlamp fails while climbing down a cave you’re
done. Because of this, Petzl is a company used to high technical
standards. This reflects in the quality fo their products. I’ve had an
old Tikka for about a decade. Used it, dropped it, threw it around, then
dropped it another thousand times, the thing keeps working.

The Tikka Plus 2 has that same pedigree. It has three white LED
modes, high, economy and strobe and then by keeping the button pressed
for 2 seconds it changes to red LED with two modes of its mode, constant
on and strobe. The headlamp used three AAA batteries. Its also water
resistance and I’ve used it hiking while raining with no problem
whatsoever.

If you’re looking for a quality headlamp that is affordable and will last for decades, look no further.
