i believe in overkill.
got caught w/o a bright light after dark. would have hiked out had i had light. now i do.
petzl's advertising used to say this headlamp "owns the night." my experience, it does.
5 leds - 3 levels of brightness.
1 xenon.
batts in belt holder.
newer models have "aa" batts.
mine is older model w/4 c(?) d (?) cell batts.
heavy, but as i said, i beliebe in overkill.
good luck.
