Mine just "needed" to be bigger then yours for a change. Local electrical whole saler we use has them so got it at wholesale rather than retail.

nice.

Good evening R93 - did you have to get a custom strap made, as you have done previously with all the other head lamps you have purchased, as the one supplied with this new head lamp wouldn't adjust out far enough?

Good evening yourself camel.
Yes it was custom made, now that you mention it.
They made a template off your second head that you have growing out of your scapula. Your main one is apparently way to large and difficult to contour properly, (I guess that's why your nickname is moon head) so they have left that to carry on making gorilla biscuits.

Shit, I only thought you had extra digits down there

5000 Lumens ? I been using a 500 zoomable for 3 or 4 years & is more than enough light.
5K might be over kill really

The Chinese love their noughts!

It turned up today. I think it may make a good fire lighter

What's it like? Is it really that bright?

Have a spare the 500 lm zoomable ,runs on 3x AA batteries. nib

@mikee did you get the h14.2 or the h14r.2? Hows it go? Good piece of kit?

Was looking at getting the h14r.2, pretty decent specs and lenser seem to have a good rep and 5 year warranty

I think the 14.2 r is a alot brighter than the 14.2,Rechargeable batteries dont seem to be a issue as it will run on two common 18650 batteries or AA,s if needed.They are alot larger than the h7.I have found the programable function a bit of a gimmick.There is a setting for storage where it wont accidentally turn itself on.I dont think you can beat the lenser warranty.With the H7 i have never had a issue with warranty and has been replaced with a new one any time there is a small issue.

@Nibblet I go the H14.2 as rechargable batteries can be a painfull. I like the light bloody bright but I don't like the battery pack sitting on the back of my swede.
I have been using it at work but just brought a smaller one for work as the 14.2 battery pack catches on everything when you are climing in and out of cupboards and consoles on the job I do.
Did I say bloody bright, also the on off switch seems to manage to turn itself on when its stuffed in my tool box. I am not a fan of the whole programmed light / dimmer thing. More gimick than not. I am a simple man so I prefer a headlamp that turns on at full power or off. Not interested in the inbetween shit. All and all its a bloody bright light and well built (the light/housing but wouldnt buy another).
