I do question why some of these headlights are so expensive , I've had lamps that have cost under 30 quid last for years I just fail to see the benefit of spending 100''s ,
I live and fish on the West Coast Outer Hebrides, with the zero light pollution over here, huge waves, wind and naughty cliffs a decent head torch is absolutely imperative. I've skimped on them in the past opting for cheap options and got caught out getting back off a mark twice. I should of learnt from my first near miss. I'll never go cheap again, you get what you pay for and your head lamp in this video looks like something I'd invest in. I do have a cheaper version for a back up but rarely need to use it. Great video mate. A decent head torch and some studs in your boots is the way forward ❤
It's a brilliant headtorch when it works. unfortunately my rotary switch went gritty and the light failed and wouldn't turn on only after a couple of sessions of use, i was stood half a mile out to sea on a rock skeer when it completely shut off 😢 silly me left my spare cheap lamp in the car. It got sent back, fenix replaced it the one I have was working fine for a couple of sessions and the same is happening to this one, the switch went gritty, now the main flood high beam doesn't work, seems a fault after a bit of research, will have to send this one back also. Its a shame this fault otherwise it a good light.

This looks a really nice lamp, I've always been a fan of Fenix head lamps and found them more reliable than any other brands
I love my Fenix shadowmaster
A good honest review! Thank you, Jansen
I have the mk1 and it is still going strong a bit more battered than yours but a lot older
Been looking at this 1 for a little while now and will defo be my next headlamp
