New Energizer Headlamp
Good Goddess! Rayetta went and broke my danged old Walmart headlamp. That Walmart headlamp lasted for years. It was indestructible almost, but not Rayetta proof. No. Not Rayetta proof. That’s fer sure.
It was a heavy instrument too, sporting 4 AAs. Uncomfortable? Yepper. Give you a headache. Yepper. Got my lifer Bufo houstonensis with that ‘un though. And plenty other nocturnal vermin besides. Good Goddess!
Mercy! The Walmart headlamp plus another of the flashlights, a red Mini Maglite, bit the dust the same week. Not acceptable. A man like Crumby must often penetrate the stygian darkness with his far, I mean near-sighted gaze. What would he do without flashlights? There’ he’d be, lying in his bed, many years from now, wondering if the English were fixing to sneak up on him.
Fortunately, one of Crumby’s habits is to always check out the flashlight offerings at the various stores. So when the CB flashlights got hit hard by this or that calamity, Crumby knew which stores featured a good flashlight selection. Like Target features plenty of flashlights and is easier to get to than Walmart.
OK. Now for the official review. Because Crumby is average in every way, he purchased the middle of the road model which also was the only one of the three models on sale. This model has four light settings 1) Two big lights in the middle light up. 2) Two smaller lights on the sides light up. 3) All four lights light up. 4) A couple of infrareds light up.Also, the light fixture can be rotated 180 degrees.
But, the trouble is, the only way to get, for example, infrared, is to cycle through the other three settings. Could get you lynched at a star party. Mercy!
OK. The new Energizer headlamp is very bright and also way more comfortable than the old Walmart headlamp. But it is too early to recommend. For one thing, it may cause irreparable red eye in the moth’s eyes. We’ll have to see. You may notice the professional yet anonymous model next door. The lamp is set on infrared. Infrared brings out the nose hairs.
