Anyone recommend one of these head lamps?

[JDHasty]

Cabela's has a bunch of Princeton Tech headlamps on sale in the online Bargain Cave.  I need to get a good head lamp, but don't know which one to get.  It will be used for going to/from stands in the dark and for blood trailing game.  I have a few cheap ones that were free, but since they are on sale I suppose it is a good time to get a good one for myself and one for my daughter.

Princeton puts out a good light.  I always buy one that runs on triple A's.  For a working light I like the QUL model.  It is light and basic.  For your use I would probably go with something a bit larger, but I don't have any personal experience with the stronger lights they are selling.

I would go with a zebralight.

I've had great luck with Princeton Tech headlamps, I prefer the FRED. They are one of my MUST stop vendors at the Shot show. They have some neat lamps for M&P that are not sold to the public.

Had good luck with Princeton. I'd go with a model that takes AAA batteries.

Zebralights are amazing.

I've used my Princeton Tec Remix (similar to the Fuel lights shown on your link) on a daily basis to capture deer at night for the past two years, running my light for probably 2-4 hours per night. I am extremely pleased with it, except for the fact that the plastic tab holding down the battery lid broke after the first year and I've been holding it together with electrical tape since then. One thing to consider if you are using this for hunting - I do get tired of having to carry spares of multiple different battery types in my back at all times. I would probably rather have a headlamp that runs off of AAs (some of the smaller Princeton Tecs run off of AAAs) so that I can use the same batteries in all my gear and not have to pack so many extras. Plus the AAs probably last longer. Little bit more weight and bulkiness is the only tradeoff when running a light with AAs.

   Of the lights in the add I would go with the large alaskan guide model with the battery pack in back. I think it was 350 lumens. Im assuming that your not looking for a super lite light. That one offers several modes of operation including green for in and out of stand and should not be a battery drain. It also has a high lumen output for blood trailing and locating down game this is huge.

Personally, I never liked the external battery packs.  They weight just didn't sit right.

One trick that I do is reverse my batteries in my headlamp, that way they are always fresh and don't get turned on accidentally.  Don't ask me why I started doing this!

I got one of these while I was in Iraq, and I love it.  White light, red light, blue light, and an IR light which I don't use.   4 levels of brightness for each of the lights and runs on CR123 battery.

I run the Princeton tec Vizz with no issues.  Nice thing about Princeton tec is that they are made in USA

I have the Alaskan Guide model xw white. I like it, a lot.

Ive used Princeton Tec in the past and had no issues.  I bought the Black Diamond Storm 3 months ago and I like it so much I bought a new headlamp already  . The first one I bought also flickered constantly on max.  Exchanged it and the next one was fine for a while.  Getting a bit of flickering every few seconds now ....  Also, it constantly dims so its advertised lumen/run times are pretty much complete bs. "Max" is equivalent to a flashlight from the dollar store after a few hours.

My buddy and I have the Cabelas RGB.  It is my favorite headlamp that I have ever owned, mind you that it is my first LED headlamp.  Super lightweight.  I like hiking with the blue light, doing stuff at camp with the green. Batteries last a long time.
