Princeton Tec Apex Extreme LED Headlamp

Princeton Tec Apex Extreme LED Headlamp – Built to withstand mother nature.

When you need an intense beam of light in any weather condition, you need the Princeton Tec Apex Extreme LED Headlamp. There are plenty of headlamps out there that have waterproof housing and long battery life, but those features usually come at a price. You either get strong light and little batter time or the exact opposite. With the Princeton Tec Apex Extreme LED Headlamp and its battery poack, you get powerful light in any condition.

The Princeton Tec Apex Extreme LED Headlamp has about as sleek of a design as any headlamp with a serious battery pack can have. Im not talking about a small triple A pack that can be worn on your head. No sir, the Princeton Tec Apex Extreme LED Headlamp uses 8 triple A batteries the are housed in a pack that can be clipped to your belt or pack to create a more comfortable headlamp.

This clip on battery pack also helps your batteries last longer in cold conditions. When the temperature drops, you can put the battery pack into the your inner layer shirt pocket to help keep the batteries warm and lasting longer. The Princeton Tec Apex Extreme LED Headlamp uses a total of seven LEDs to throw around some serious lighting power.
