I'd be careful with uco headlamps. The hinges that I've seen are pretty chintzy and weak. Mine went bad right out of the box and let the light instantly droop down to point at the floor.
It took several months of calls, emails, and social media to get a response and a warranty replacement.

I own one and can comment that the battery life is very poor. If all you need is the low light then it's ok. However trying to use for night running it doesn't even last the 48' in cooler weather (low 40's). I really wanted to like this product as I got it in a Cairn box but its just not practical for most activities or multi-day adventures. I keep it and a charge cord (which thankfully I had one that fit laying around the house) in my car and throw it in my pack if there is any chance I'll be out around dusk.

I recently took thos light backpacking and it functioned well. But the strap is just awful. It’s stif and difficult to adjust. a friend removed the strap and made one out of elastic.
I also found the the red light serting to be useless. It is less bright than the very lowest setting on white. it was not even useful for simple functions in the tent.

150 lumens for just 5 hours on low power and less than an hour on high? Ultralight means nothing if it won't meet your needs.

Spend $12more and get the Nitecore NU25 in 2 days via Amazon. WAY better specs: 160 lumens for 5 hours (with 260 lumen turbo mode), IP66 water resistant, recharges via microUSB, can operate WHILE charging, and tons of other features. All for just 1oz! (Though I think that's just the light, not the headband - so really maybe 2 oz?). I bought one 2 weeks ago and can't believe how good it is for the price and weight.

This is a very lightweight item and gives off very decent light on high power . However, be warned you will probably not get more than one night's use before a recharge is needed. I got this in a cairn box also, I was surprised that a charging cable was not included. My opinion, to make this a truly useful addition they need to double battery life, and include a super short cable.

Used this lamp on a recent backpacking trip. In temperatures around 25 degrees, the battery lasted only a few minutes on high. Recharged fully and had the same result - light began flashing after a few minutes. It is very lightweight, but at a significant cost.

I would just like to confirm that I weighed mine right out of the box at 1.65 oz. Also, I love it so far, but if it can't actually handle a little rain hiking like it stated, then UCO are dead to me.

zvarnumDead to me too... I have a faulty headlamp and after two months of calls, emails, and messages on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, they have continued to ignore me.
So much for their "warranty."

I got this in my Cairn box last month and I love it. Super light and very comfortable. I have not had time to test the length of the charge yet. Either way its a great deal.
