Gromit 1 Oct 2:37pm, 1 Oct 2024 2,003 posts	0 Gromit Hi @jacdaw yes I also purchased the small rechargeable that fits inside the case on the back of the head … did a bench test and that lasted 15+ hours on the 200 lumen (I think 🤔) setting .. I’m planning to use that a the main use , then have a back up of both the large charge battery 🔋 in my pack with the double backup of putting in the AAA batteries .. seems in the face of it a much better unit than my old LED Lensor (at a cost obviously) I like the 3 different options of power

Main difference being the battery pack is vertical. Also came with a chest strap but I haven't tried that. Happy with it. One 18650 lasted through the night. @StuH have you bought it recently? Doesn't look like they still stock/make it. Wonder what their equivalent is now bhttps://ledlenser.com/en/product/headlamp-neo10r-500917/

I tend to use it without the strap that goes over your head, also comes with an extra bit of strap to use as a chest lamp. Down side is that it's a lump of rechargable battery that cost me £40 for a spare!! ledlenser.co.uk
StuH 3 Oct 1:43pm, 3 Oct 2024 4,924 posts	0 StuH Yeah, replaced by NEO9R (odd for a subsequent model to go down a number). I see it now has two 18650's. Looks very bulky.
