Tools and Hardware Reviews of Petzl E49P TacTikka Plus 4-LED Headlamp, Black

Customer Review: Waterproof? Oh yeah.
Summary: 5 Stars

We use this headlamp for night jogging. It was left in 'someone's' pocket, and was laundered in the washing machine. The batteries came out, the battery door came off, everything was loose in the wash. I was sure it was ruined. After letting everything air dry for a couple days, we popped the same batteries back in, and it worked like a charm. This is a tough little light. I am very impressed. I'm having to order another one though, 'someone' lost it. :)

Description of Petzl E49P TacTikka Plus 4-LED Headlamp, Black

A version of the Tikka Plus...this ultra-lightweight 4-LED headlamp features a red filter for discrete light and night vision preservation, 3 brightness settings (maximum, optimum, economic) and a blinking mode. It sports battery life of up to to 150 hours on regular settings (up to 400 hours on blinking mode). It's water resistant and comfortable to wear. Red filter for discrete light and preservation of user's night vision. 3 lighting levels (maximum, optimum, economic) and strobe mode, to adapt the light to the activity and at and light duration needs. Adjustable elastic headband for comfort and to secure it in place. Light beam can be easily aimed where desired. Water resistant for all-weather use. Batteries included (3AAA).
While this headlamp is designed specifically for night fishing, it could just as easily be used for other purposes, such as night hiking, camping, climbing, or even hunting.

The TacTikka Plus is lightweight (78 g with batteries) and comfortable to wear, which is a good thing, since you're likely to be using it over longer stretches of time. Another great feature of the LED bulbs is that they are much more impact-resistant than incandescents: you're really going to have to smack it hard against something before you lose your illumination. Plus, LEDs are extremely energy-efficient. According to the manufacturer, you'll get functional illumination up to 150 hours on the included batteries, depending on which light levels you operate at.

The TacTikka Plus has three intensity settings, allowing you to customize your lighting to match your needs. The optimum setting illuminates to 23 meters (note that the range will decline slightly over time as you run your batteries down). If you need more vision, you can switch to the maximum setting; if you need to look at a map, use the economic setting. Hunters and fishing enthusiasts will appreciate the pull-down red filter, which renders the light invisible to most game. It even has an emergency strobe if things get ugly.

Overall a handy, well-designed product.--Josh Dettweiler
