Petzl Myo Belt SB 5 Headlamp
Price: $85.95 - BUY

Loaded with state-of-the-art features for varied lighting needs in demanding environments.

Offering the best of both worlds, the Petzl Myo Belt SB 5 headlamp includes a xenon halogen bulb for shining a long, powerful beam and a set of five LEDs for long-lasting proximity lighting. Although the xenon halogen bulb burns the batteries down in four hours, it throws a beam of 295 feet. It's rare that you need a beam of this length but when you need it, it feels like a priceless tool. For the rest of the time, such as reading in the tent, walking down a well-traveled trail, or rigging a bear hang after dark, the five LEDs do the job more than adequately. Instead of slowly losing their brightness as the batteries wear down, the Petzl Myo Belt SB 5 headlamp regulates the lighting level so that it remains constant until the batteries are nearly exhausted. At that point this intelligent headlamp kicks into a reserve power mode that provides adequate proximity lighting for a greatly extended period of time. To further fine tune the lighting level and use the battery power as efficiently as possible, the Petzl Myo Belt SB 5 headlamp offers three levels of LED lighting, depending on whether you're cleaning trout long after sunset or trying to find your tent after descending from a climb in fading light. A remote battery pack keeps the weight of four AA batteries off the head and also allows for you to shelter the batteries underneath your clothing to preserve battery life in extreme cold. The lamp is water resistant and performs well in even the most awful weather.

Advice from the Crown of Africa experience:
"Heath and Moorland -- I suggest a polypro long underwear top and bottom beneath shorts and a T-shirt. During my trek a fleece vest or jacket was kept at ready for pauses in the climb. Gaiters were essential through the wet, knee high grasses at this elevation (though our assistant guide waled ahead of us with a branch sweeping dew off the grass)."
