There's a review up of the Fenix ShadowMaster headlamp HERE in the review section of Bushcraft UK
The Full name of this headlamp is the Fenix HM65R ShadowMaster, it’s a bit of a mouthful, but there again, it’s quite a lot of head torch, so we’ll let it slide.
Initially, I thought it was the lesser sibling to the straight HM65R headlamp, which produces a max output of 1400 lumen compared to the ShadowMasters 1200 lumen. I quickly realised that there’s nothing lesser about this headlamp.
Based on the popular HM65R, but instead of twin white beams, it has a white main beam and a powerful red floodlight. For us in the bushcraft world, it’s a great combination; the main beam produces plenty of useable light, it goes low enough to use close up if you were cooking or carving and high enough to see far ahead if you’re on the move, or if you need to illuminate an area. The red light is very usable at all settings for reading through to keeping you on the path at night if you don’t want the brightness of the white light.
