Where can head band mounted LED lights be found? Do they throw decent enough light to work by?

I got one at my local WalMart for around 10 bucks. It works really well for tying lines and unhooking fish, gives enough on the ground to get around but you won't light up more than a few feet in front of you.

I keep mine in my tackle bag, the batteries last a LONG time (only has 3 LED bulbs and one Halogen which I rarely use), and it is very handy to have around.

Buy a cheap one from Walmart and makes sure it has a RED LED. I use the RED light them most for working tackle since it doesn't jack up your night vision and most important...I don't have a face full of bugs!

if you want to go hog wild you can find super powerfull head lamps at a recreational outdoor supply store. The ones around me are REI and The alpine shop. they should be by the backpacking gear. But as twors said the red lights the way to go. unless you're gonna use it in the winter.

Are you flying a fighter jet or fishingyou don't need red or green or blueturn it on, tie your lure on, turn it off.

There's nice ones out there that clip onto the brim of a ballcap if you don't want the bulky one with the straps.

Agreed. I take a hat light and a handheld flashlight when night fishing. Most of the time, both are turned off.

I say use the red light to tie your lure or land fish and then turn it off. I use the red light and it works great. My fishing partner has a light that kills my eyes every time its turned on... too bright

The eye adapts quickly to the prevailing level of illumination

Example, for the person viewing in a darkened movie theater, the eye adapts quickly to the prevailing level of illumination. However, compared to the light level of a moonless night, the light level within the movie theater is high. The lower the starting level of illumination, the less time is required for adaptation.

Depending on the brightness (intensity), duration of exposure, or repeated exposures, recovery time to regain complete dark adaptation could take from several minutes to the full 45 minutes.

Use low intensity lights, don't look directly at the light, and turn it off as soon as possible

x2 on what Catt said.I fish alot in the night but have yet to get a light to put on my head.I bought a let flashlight and it has probably 20 hours on the same batteries.

I see hats with three LED lights made into the bill at sporting goods stores, Sears, and Lowes.
