Waiting for TS Fay.

Tropical Storm Fay is a few hours away now. We’re getting ready. One of the things I have in quantity are LED headlights. I have owned a wide selection. This unit from Rayovac works as good as any and better than most. One of the more annoying thigns about headlights is glare; either the glare in your own eyes or the eyes of the person you are looking at. With this unit, you still need to avoid pointing it at your friend, but at least the glare isn’t in your eyes.

The first one of these I bought, it cost $18.99. The price has gone down a lot. The price from Amazon is for two headlights. If you live in hurricane country, having a spare is not a bad thing.

I expect that this deal won’t last long. I bought my first one about 3 years ago. It’s not the brightest one I have, but the batteries (I use rechargeable) last a long time and they seem to hold up pretty good. In addition to red and white LED’s, it has a incandescent spotlight that I rarely use

The other inexpensive LED headlights on the market that I’ve tried (and I’ve tried most of them), are uncomfortable to use because of the glare.

If you would rather burn gas and drive that hybrid into town, you may find this one at a big box store. If you order from amazon, a nice package delivery person will bring it to your very mailbox.

The deal is Amazon’s and could change or disappear at anytime.
