Honestly good in general if you live in a place that's sometimes night.

some have red light functions, which wont blind people youre looking at

[–] blarghly@lemmy.world 2 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Highly recommended if you camp socially often. Blinding people with your headlamp is a social faux pas among experienced outdoors people.

If you are cheap like me, you can use a normal head torch and hold it in your almost-closed fist, that reduces the blinding a lot and you can control how much light you want
