Looking for a headlamp for upcoming trip. Low intensity control seems to be 
very important and enough umph to help focus on a foreground.  Light weight is 
good though enough battery power to last.  
Replaceable batteries may   be a plus if get stuck but AA are too heavy and 
most AAA X3 may not perform well enough.  

I have some REI credits and came up with this one:

No red LED but have seen that is overrated in preserving night vision, though 
that does make physiologic sense.
It only has a 16340 rechargeable battery  (700mAh) but it will run on 
disposable CR123A battery too.  I really don't know how long I need it to last.
The highest ranking ones  seem to use the 18650 battery which seem to have 
2200-2600 mAH.  

Thought I'd better check here.

Tx,

In the dark, Mike
