Head Lights - Petzl MYO XP

Lads
I know there has been some discussion on headlights recently and there seems to be a wide varity of makes out there and also price/opinions.
However I have been doing some looking around and this one seems to be very well priced for what it does. (Approx £52.00) and takes 3 AA Batteries, hence you are not paying for a recharagable battery pack.

Its not waterproof but is water resistant and has up to 150 lumens on the boost setting. (4 settings in total and 100hrs at optimium)

Does anyone have one of these and how do you rate it.

Thanks

What money???????

in your case dave ,i know your leaving me all your gear, as im leaving mine to you

myself and a few friends have the myo xp, cant complain, all the light you need for close work on beaches and its lightweight, some others in the club use the princeston apex, these are a bit brighter, but slightly bulkier, again ,good lamp.
the ultras, etc are all smashing bright headlights, but some would argue that they can be too bright and strong at times for just fishing!!!

I'd agree,,,they would have been great in London during the Blitz for spotting the Luftwaffe

Thanks lads, I was also looking at the Petzl Duo 14 Led - again any comments/details appreciated

Have the princeton tec apex myself, grand headlight and I dont find it too heavy/bulky when wearing it, but does seem to eat batteries - should get myself some rechargeables I guess

Thanks Mark - I will check this one out...

Must get out soon, maybe next week..

No worries mick you can get a look at it next time we are out.

Tides should be ok again next week, so should get a couple of sessions in.
