Before I go about investigating torches to feed an inexhaustible gear addiction, I'd like to ask a couple of questions about the colour of light that these LED things put out, and going to the CandlePower forum seems like a mess that I'd rather not step in during this early fact-finding phase.
Let me first say that I own a pair of SureFire E2O torches that I love. They are bright, tough and throw out a perfectly coloured beam. They are, though, heavy, especially when paired with the extra batteries that I inevitably need. I also own a 10 year-old Petzl headlamp that I genuinely avoid using because I hate the beam colour in the same manner that I hate florescent lights. They are skin-peeling horror shows that I'd simply don't want to use. But the headlamp is light and very useful, so I bring it along.
I'm looking for a headlamp that throws a warm colour. Do any such monsters exist?
