Check out what the experts at Backpacker Magazine said about the Princeton Tec Apex in their March 2006 Gear Guide issue: "The brightest and most feature-rich of the AA-battery headlamps we've seen . . . In our tests, the spot easily reached 200 feet, and all levels produced whiter, crisper light than the competition."
