Skullerz 60197 Rechargeable Universal Hard Hat LED Light, Black

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use a hardhat-mounted light every day of my working life. The mill is full of poorly lit areas, and working in electrical enclosures always has you working in your own shadow, so the ability to see where you point your face is critical. I switched to this light from the standard replaceable battery type a while ago, and I have been nothing but pleased. I find that the charge lasts longer under heavy use, and I keep the usb ready at my office desk for easy charging when I'm off the plant floor. One drawback is when you forget to charge it before it dies completely and you have to wait for it to charge, as opposed to a quick swap of batteries. That said, I've gone through a pantload of AAA batteries over the last decade or so, which generates a lot of universal waste, and I'm just one fella. Multiply that by the rest of the working stiffs, and you've got a mountain of batteries. Ugh. Glad to leave that behind. The magnet is a nice addition, which allows you to mount it in a fixed location if you don't want the light moving around with your head. One thing I would suggest as an improvement is the inclusion of a headband so that the light can be used with helmets that are not already prefit with a light mount.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a couple of the older removable battery style headlamps. This one is better. The power button is easier to operate. The battery lasts a while. The mounting clip is the same, but there is no need to make better what is already well done. I am very happy with it.
