So, this was extremely useful while it lasts. After 1.5 years of use, the battery won't charge at all. So, the whole thing is just a waste.

I was looking for the Light Bar head lamp and thought I had ordered a Light Bar.i didn't realize ot wasn't the one I wanted until I couldn't find a setting that the Light Bar has. (only the LEDs directly on the front Light up so if you are in a group you don't blind the people besides you.)But I have used the LiteBand united I really like it. It's Light and puts out a lot of light and you can see very clearly. The best thing is that you have your hands free!!!The only thre things that I would change is:1. Move the Red light mode to be the first light you get. The way it is now, you lose your nightvision when you turn on the light.2. I may have gotten a bad battery pack but it only last about 3 hours on high.3. Something that I should have thought about is, for people who wear glasses, the light can shine into your glasses and reflect back into your eyes and blind you. A small reflective strip that could shield it just a little would make all of the difference.To get around this I just wear a hat and then the light. Cuts out the glare but also cuts out the area close in front of me..So I'm back looking down to see what is directly in front of me just like I had to do with the old style head lamps.All in all it a good Light. The LeDs are in a good rubber waterproof housing and the battery seems to be sealed good also.It wasn't a bad mistake at all.

In the winter, my evening dog walks are in the dark. Holding a flashlight in my hand to pick up poops was getting annoying, and in my search for a head mounted light, I found this style of head mounted light. This was my second product to give a try as the first one died fairly quickly.While I got this to help with walking the dogs, i've found various other uses for it along the way.I really like the spread of the light. I don't have to position my head or fiddle with the light to get the light to shine where I need it to. With the light spread, I can look around without having to move my head so much.I have a large head and this easily fits it. The battery on the back is a little awkward but I get used to it pretty quickly. What's really nice is the battery connects to the light via USB-C with a standard connection, so any battery with a USB-C cable will work fine. I have portable packs that will fit in the elastic strap holding the battery so I'm not tied down to the included battery. This is great because you're not left with a dead device if the battery dies.Speaking of the battery, it does have a flaw. There's no indicators on it. So while charging, you get no charging status. I've just been trusting that if I plug it in overnight, I get a good amount of time to use it before the next charge.Overall, this is a great light. It's comfortable. It's versatile. And it's usable. Definitely worth the price.

Overall the headlamp portion works ok. Although I am finding the 520 lumen a bit lacking for detail tasks like electrical work. Battery life is pretty poor on the high setting. I ran into a lot of issues getting the battery pack to recharge. I have standardized on USB-C power supplies with Power Delivery. They work great with all my other devices (phones, laptops, etc...). However, the battery packs for these refuse to charge on them. While the connector for this may be USB-C, it has none of the required charge control circuitry. To charge these, I have to find a dumb charger that just dumps 5V onto the rails. That is a pain. It makes their "fast charging" claim a bit dubious, at best.
