      This headlamp is light, small and very bright. Changing the three AAA batteries is simple. I use it when working outdoors at night and have not put it on the included headband for hands free operation yet. Very satisfied!

        Comments about Princeton Tec Fuel 4 LED Headlamp:

        I got this as a gift and i took it on maybe 2 camping trips and the batter compartment popped open. i thought no big deal, so i fixed it with a little bit of duct tape and it worked for maybe 8 days until the other side of the battery compartment popped open.

              Very bright,nice product except I dropped mine once and like other reviewers the battery compartment door broke. No way to jury rig so its now useless. If they can fix the problems with the door I would buy another, until they do I'll use another brand left in the dark.

              Comments about Princeton Tec Fuel 4 LED Headlamp:

              I bought this for my wife after owning the Princeton Tec Quad Headlamp... just wanted to try a different model. The battery door broke shortly after owning it. I like the performance of the light otherwise. Until they can ameliorate this problem I will be going back to the Quad Headlamp model.

              poorly designed battery compartment

              By Marathon Man

              from North West NJ

              Verified Buyer

              Comments about Princeton Tec Fuel 4 LED Headlamp:

              Needed a good headlamp to run outdoors in the dark evenings. Saw other reviews about the battery compartment. Thought that I would have better results. Upon receipt I followed the instructions using the tab on the head band strap to open up the unit and insert the supplied batteries - the battery door broke! Obvious design, quality flaw. A deal breaker for what would otherwise be a good product. When will Princeton Tec address this? If it was a car it would be subject to the lemon law!

              I have had 3 of these lights, I do love the light itself, but the battery door has broken on all 3 of my lamps. I replaced on at the local store, but having to ship the others back is too much hassle. I wish they would just re-engineer the battery compartment!

                  Works great! And it's PINK so my husband won't take it. But that's what I said about my pink coffee press mug, and that disappeared... oh well. Great headlamp - sturdy, reliable, plenty bright. Keep it hanging from the rear view mirror so it's always handy.

                    light was great. Outperformed most others. Durability is an issue as the hinged cover broke after the 1st or 2nd time the battery was removed.
