Great customer service, a good quality lamp at a low price.
Made in China- you get what you pay for. The circuit in this light eats batteries like they are candy. The light quality is good for 20 minutes max, no matter what setting.*EDIT* - Shining Buddy reached out to me within hours of posting my review and they are sending a replacement. They seem to think I got a dud. Great customer service, I will revisit the review once I have some hours on the replacement light.*EDIT2* 6/28/2016 - Shining Buddy sent me a replacement lamp, and it is working far better than the first lamp I got. GREAT customer service, rating amended.

Excellent. Unbeatable value.
I took this on a five day backpacking trip as my #1 light. It was my only headlamp. It worked flawlessly despite some genuine abuse. One night we experienced a down-pour in the middle of the night. The next morning I found the headlamp inside the tent lying in a half-inch of standing water. I dried it off with a towel and turned it on. It was still working perfectly, so I simply removed the soaking-wet elastic band and hung it to dry.Another time I removed my beanie forgetting that I was wearing the headlamp. It fell off my head and smacked the large rock I had been sitting on. When I checked the light, it was fine.The batteries lasted the whole trip. After several nights of extensive use, the light was still going strong, with no sign of battery failure. I brought extra batteries, but never needed them. I couldn't have been more pleased with the performance of the light.

OK Light
I am a bit surprised this is rated 5 stars. It is not a bad light...but I have two headlamps that are better (about the same price). It has settings that are fine, but the construction is not as good/sturdy as my other lights. You can do better. Edited next day: The red led on the right side will not work (never has). Fortunately, I am only concerned with the white led's. The way this light is hinged (to reach batteries inside) is not the best way to construct the light. Other lights have a cam lock to access a 3 battery holder inside... which slides out. Edited 10 days later: Shining Buddy has literally blown me away. I emailed them and told them my red led light was out. They sent me 2 free replacement headlamps! Folks, this just does not happen out there. A great testimony to their integrity. My 3 star rating shot up to 5 stars!

Not a fan of the product, but see addendum to review
Not a good product at all. Went dead within just a few hours use. Luckily I was using it for work in an attic space and not camping in the woods. Also, buttons are not very well designed. There are two buttons side by side and I frequently hit the red button by accident, then you have to scroll through three clicks to turn off. I had misplaced an energizer model that I bought in a drugstore three years ago and subsequently found. That product is still going strong after many, many camping trips and use at home. I'd buy another of those before even thinking about buying this product. Also, by comparison on the buttons, the Energizer has one button, you hit it, the white light comes on medium, hit it again, low, again, high, again, red. Very simple. You always get white light with the first hit. Never red and then three clicks. And really, who ever needs the red light? You don't want to ever be hitting that by accident and wasting your time scrolling through. Also, the red light is on the right side--most people are right handed and instinctively reach with their right hand. This isn't a product you use every day so almost every time you do use it, you're going to at least once have a frustrating moment of hitting the wrong button.Addendum 7/14/17I initially gave this product a one star review. However, two days after writing this review I received a product from the company with one button that functions in the same manner as the Energizer described in my review. There was no note asking me to reconsider my review or an annoying email stating, "try this product instead", which I find a very ethical and appropriate approach and I applaud the company for that...I don't know if it will last like the Energizer, but it's good product and I'm happy with it, and the five star rating represents a combination of the company's doing the right thing and the new product being a good product. My dislike for the prior product stands, but my design preferences may not be yours. I would buy from this company again. (Hopefully they don't ruin and begin sending me emails asking me to update my review. :-))

Two Happy Walkers!
There is no doubt in my mind that this headlamp was designed just for me. I am 60 years old and I have to walk in the evening because my lab gets very hot in the sun. I don't know the specifics about how this is made, but the lighting is perfect. I use the low light and it keeps the path ahead well lit. I didn't realize it was adjustable downward (I don't read directions obviously) until I tried to place it down on my forehead a bit, and lo and behold it clicked right down to where I needed it to be. If only everything were this fabulous and user friendly!! I couldn't be happier with this purchase. Thank you Shining Buddy! My dog Frank thanks you too.

Shining buddy head light
I love the headlamp. Super bright LED. Press once for light, second press super bright like high beam on a car. Wonderful for where I am night walks in the mountains. Third press and you get the red lights ar the sides of the main light. You can have them strobe, like hazard lights, or on red all the time. Really happy with it. I will definitely be purchasing more for the whole family. Good for hiking, bike riding, rollar blading or most dry sports.

Fantastica!!!!
io la utilizzo per ricamare ed è fenomenale, la consegna è stata veloce e arrivata perfettamente funzonante, si consiglia per tutti quei lavoretti di bricolage, hobbystica o piccole manutenzione in cui c'è necessità di una luce forte e mirata. Ottima anche per corse in bicicletta e a piedi, praticamente si può utilizzare per una varieta notevole di necessita.

Super hell
Wahnsinn die ist hell und 😅 meine Kinder lesen immer noch heimlich unter Decke. Eigentlich habe ich sie lediglich für einen Schulausflug gekauft, aber sie sind auch so wirklich sehr praktisch und meinen Jungs passen sie perfekt, da der weiche angenehme Gummi stufenlos verstellbar ist.👍🏻

Funktioniert gut, aber . . .
Ich habe füe meine beiden Enkel je eineStirnlampe bestellt. Beide Lampen funktionieren zum jetzigen Zeitpunkt gut. Allerdings war eine der beiden Lampen mit Sicherheit ein Rückläufer. Begründungen: 1.Eine der Verpackungen war eingerissen. 2. Eine Packung enthielt-wie angegeben- einen 3-erPack Batterien, bei der anderen fehlten diese. 3. Eine Stirnlampe war bereits auf das Kopfgummi aufgezogen, die andere nicht. 4. Die Schachteln unterschieden sich hinsichtlich desFarbtons (beide grün) erheblich von einander. Ich war sehr enttäuscht, hatte aber leider keine Zeit, die Sendung zu reklamieren und Ersatz zu ordern, da ich die Lampen nach Australien verschicken wollte und diese bis zum Nikolaustag bei meinen Enkeln sein sollen. Aus diesen Gründen nur 2 Sterne.

Super hell
Ich habe diese Stirnlampen für meine Jungs gekauft, wegen einem Schulausflug - bei dem Preis hab ich nicht viel erwartet um so überraschter war ich dass diese Lampen immer noch tadellos funktionieren. Sehr hell selbst nur das rote Licht ist nicht zu übersehen. Einfach Top und nur u empfehlen!!!
