Headlight for night flying

I bought something like that and put velcro on the side of it and then velcro
on the side of my headset. Works great! Use the red only, though.

Trip

It's something I'll keep in mind. I'll make at least one trip with this
light just to see how I like it. It does fit under an ordinary baseball
cap and it _seems_ unobtrusive.

For those who attach a light to the side of your headsets: Do you feel
it pulls one side off the ear or feels off balanced? Given how light
these are I doubt it, but just want to check.

David,

I agree with Paul, get something that attaches to the headset you're
wearing anyway. I have the Blackhawk, but that was before LED.

I got a "Photon" at the local battery store. Single red LED lithium
battery. Locks in on position. Battery life is 5 days. Size of a quarter
about 3/16" thick. weight is negliable Single dot of velcro and put on ear
cup of headset.

I did this too, but with a Photon III (w/blue-green LED), which has three
brightness settings. I keep it on the dimmest setting for in-cockpit use,
but can momentarily get full brightness by pressing the forward half of the
on/off button. It's light enough that I leave it velcroed to my headset all
the time.
