Why I Love My Coast Headlamp
It has been a while since I’ve written, readers but not because I’ve been neglecting my love for the great outdoors. Lucky for me, I’ve was enjoying some much needed fun and relaxation earlier this month. The northwest is simply a wonderful place to vacation. I was able to visit some friends and family but also to get in my first of several camping trips before winter sets in. That first trip to the southern Oregon forests and trail ways was wonderfully relaxing, slighting challenging but overall a much needed change from my normal routine.
The trip did remind me again of why I love my Coast LED headlamp oh, so much. I jotted down two very good reasons in my journal while I was out. I thought I’d share them with you:
– Bathroom Buddy: This headlamp is my best friend when it comes to making trips to the Honey Bucket after the sun goes down. Hands-free so you don’t have to fumble with doors, lids, etc. while also holding a flashlight, the headlamp can make an unpleasant experience, slightly more pleasant. Plus, the dimmer switch helps you lower the brightness so you don’t blind anyone when you come back out or see too much while you are in there.
– Tent Illumination: I always manage to remember something I really want, like my hat or a deck of cards after the sun has gone down. I end up fumbling through my duffel or backpack looking for these little items with random success. Now, with my headlamp though, I put it around my neck around dusk and just keep it with me. When I went fumbling to the tent, I just flipped the switch, put it on my head and searched away. This works much better than a flashlight because you have both hands free and can point the light anywhere you are looking (with flashlights this only can happen by putting it in your mouth, a very unsanitary way of managing the light).
