    The reviews with that link are not too flash on the quality of the light. The mounts are good though. I have just received a heap of headlights for checking cows during calving. Gave my brother in law one for use on the farm and now everyone is getting one.

    That begs the following questions. How many heads do you have .... and .... how many cows do you have?
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    One and none, in that order. But the brother in law has something like 660 of the latter. The headlamp is great on the quad, good for 75-100m and when he gets to an animal that needs attention he can adjust to a flood setting and lower the power. Leaves his hands free and they are so comfortable he keeps forgetting it is on his head. With 4 hours on a battery charge they are great on that score too. Much better than the Lensar that he has retired after not very long.

    I have one of their mounts for the GPS in the vehicles and they are very very good.
