What's everyone using for a headlamp?

[Justin Aguirre]

My headlamp broke on my last shoot and I was curious to see what everyone else was using. I know there are a ton of options from Home Depot, Target, and Amazon but would love to hear some fellow DVXusers for a headlamp with a good bright light, red light option, and is durable enough to survive set life.

I just started looking at headlamps for hiking (literally just started this afternoon) and came across Black Diamond brand which seem to be well reviewed and have a wide range of options/price points. I'm personally looking at the Storm model for it's added brightness and water resistance, but I think some lower models are dimmable and have both white and red lights too.

having either a low power or red light is a good extra feature, also make sure it can tilt down, i still occasionally use one i got for 4 bucks. don't need crazy power, just that little illumination

I use a Petzl Tikka. They have a version with a dedicated red LED, and one version with a red (or green or blue) filter that flips over the LEDs.
