Hi all. I got two different headlamps for Christmas and I'm trying to decide which I should keep. The first is a Cabelas Alaskan Guide XW (70 lumens and 3 AA batteries) and the second is a Black Diamond Storm (160 lumens and 4 AAA batteries). Both look to be rated about the same in online reviews but I haven't found any side by side comparisons. Anyone have any experience with either?

This will be replacing a Petzl Micro that just couldn't cut it while gutting and skinning a moose in the dark this past October.
