hallo.people.i decided to post a new thread here,co i hear more and more about serious problems with expensive non budget led headlamps…included fenix,zebralight,armytek,spark……unfortunately brands,which one i believed,they are the “untouchables”…today i hear much more frequently about the problems with headlamps.i dont understand it…it looks like,they all have problems with their switches…it looks like,this is the main problem.
we had after a few months problems with spark st6,spark st5,zebralight falling from one meter,after a few months destroyed tailcaps in a fenix headlamps…my friend dont want to buy it anymore.and say-we will try rather good old peztl headlamps…
iam pretty confused from it.co i self bought rith now acebeam with mtg…cant wait to use it in forest.
whats your opinion of this?iam nervous,when i should offer any of the led headlamps to someone…what do you think?
or,is the quality of these led headlamps even worst and worst?
I’ve got a Fenix hp15, had it, i think, nearly a year and the wire between the battery pack and light broke. Contacted Fenix and they replied immediately, giving me someone in the uk to contact who replaced my headlamp with a refurbished unit within a couple of weeks! Great customer service, thumbs up for Fenix. I’ve also got a Led Lenser H14.2, excellent headlamp, if a bit chunky. Anyway, the clip that holds the battery compartment shut, snapped off. Contacted Led Lenser, and again, repaired my light very quickly, no hassle at all. Problem is it snapped off again not long after getting it back. It seems my eneloop pro’s are a tight fit, but cant be bothered to send it off again as a few elastic bands do a good job. So there you go, they can all go wrong, but the better companies sort any problems quickly.
