Amazing quality in every detail and 277 lumens

Preface: In use was a model of "Petzl", which was very sensitive to dust and quickly broke down because of the clunky switch no longer allowed to use. Then came a cheap lamp. Although they were sufficiently from light, but was quite power hungry and its batteries were directly integrated into the housing (ie weight forward). Then came a further cheap lamp, she offered a fifty percent increase in price twice as many LEDs and a little more light, had to focus as well on top again. You bugged with their different light modes, you had to press the button to move to the desired light level several times. The buttons under the rubber molding was sometime the ghost, a problem of "LiteXpress" lamps (also one of my flashlights) seems to be. Annoyed by Billigkram I bought a quality model with a 1 watt LED and a battery compartment for the mind, for the immediate vicinity but that is sometimes too light. Then came a cheap lamp with 3 AAA batteries, which gave too little light and was not even adjustable. After good experiences with the flashlights LedLenser of "Two Brothers" I bought the head lamp "H3", which came along with 60 lumens brightness control. The battery compartment was rear, front could kompfortabel turn on / off. Unfortunately, there is at this company almost exclusively Headlights with AAA batteries, make microcells in the high performance category makes little sense, the weight advantage is there beside the point. Although this lamp has not been used in heavy industry, soon denied the lamp head hinge, a little later of the brightness control lever broke off. In relation to the price that goes wrong and I was disappointed.

Fenix ​​was my concept for high-performance flashlights, their head lamps came to my attention because it it in a high protection class gibt- dust and even water can not penetrate so fast. The model "Fenix ​​HP11" gives 277 lumens even significantly more light as the top model "Two brothers LedLenser H14R" (220 lumens), costs less as half and has more to offer: glass lens, Water-resistant to IPX 6, screw down the battery compartment lid, diffuser with hinge supplied. Operation is easy with the 2 buttons and the lamp remembers the last setting.

Continuous light:
1: 8.6 days long 4 lumen
2 25 hours 55 lumens
3: 9,5 hours 133 lumens
4: 3,8 hours 277 lumens

Flashing:
1: Flashing with 277 lumens
2: SOS signal with 55 lumens
3: flashing with 55 lumens

The brightness is enormous, while the non-adjustable cone of light has outlined rather sharp. There is an electronic control, therefore battery can easily be used and as a side effect the light for a long time remain constant. The slide-diffuser has a hinged diffuser and is ideal-for close range while he can remain on the lamp, provided that now projecting lens may not be damaged (ect with Caving. Rather decrease). The lamp head (aluminum interior) is latching adjustable, in the horizontal position, the two button against accidental operation are protected. The Batteriefachh has gold-plated contacts (!) And a stable screw that can be open / close even with gloves.
