I use an older Zebralight H60011 at work nearly every day and have not seen one better. I also use EagleTac 18650 because they're top notch batteries and fit in my torch perfectly. Other brand 18650 batteries can be a very tight fit in my torch. Yeah - my zebra light band is a crusty dirty stinky mess. Love it...

Who makes the best headlamp Thank you for your support!! Depends on how you are going to use it. For frog gigging, I like one that has a beam that can be focused down really tight. For walking back from the stand, I want more of a floodlight than a spotlight. I ended up with a Coast 615 lumen with an adjustable beam and 3 power settings. Not too heavy, decent battery life. Waterproof.

Don’t know about “best”, but I just bought this rechargeable, 13000 lumen contraption off Amazon for $14.99. About four steps better than the stuff I’ve been buying. Worked good loading the truck last Wednesday, no idea on how it will hold up, but this sucker is BRIGHT. And heavy.... https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B083B7CVQK/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

The last few years Sams club has a 2 pack of 300 lumen lights.
Uses 3 aaa each. Comes with Duracell.
Start off @$20.
By clearance tine can get them for $9-14.
Aaa batteries are the kicker.
Cr123 are expensive Used to get em bulk for $1 each. It sure what they are now. Probably similar to, or the same as what Costco sells. They are very good lights - 3 intensity levels and focusable. This were compact - no zoom focus. Did have red light.
