tobsnI'm curious as to why you think this is a bad buy. Are you willing to flesh your comment out a bit so that it might actually be useful? One of the things that I like about the lamp, is that it could be used in a variety of ways.
FernhildaI'm curious too, I bbq at night sometimes and could definitely see the utility of this. Is it the price? I was also concerned about having a battery so close to heat
NotaDrYou can buy a really nice headlamp for 30 bucks, and you aim the light where you need it. With it been on you head it won't melt, or discolor from heat. I smoke pork butts and meatloaf all the time with a headlamp.
