  • Hey hikers/backpackers/campers! This week I check out a headlamp you may have never heard of! This is the Go For Wild 500 lumen headlamp. It's jam packed with a lot of great features and is one of the cheapest lights you'll find for the back country!

    Nice work! With the quality of lights improving and the prices dropping, I think your best point here is that there's a real value to having lots of headlamps that you can stash in different places to be sure you don't forget it when switching from car camping to backpacking, etc. Solid work, Dave!

      Thanks for watching bud! Yeah it's frustrating having to remember where you last kept each piece of gear. Having a kit mostly loaded up and dedicated gear is the way to go imo. 🙌

    Thanks for the review. I received an older one for Christmas and had no clue about that second button, which I will probably never use.

      Thanks for watching! A lot of great features on this headlamp!

    Great review Dave! The function where it senses other people is awesome. Being blinded when someone looks at you sucks. I usually double up on a lot of my gear because I don’t like to switch it out between backpacks, etc. otherwise I would forget it.

      Great points Dan! And thanks for watching! It is a nifty feature for sure but a little janky to use. Plus, it also shuts the light off which could be distracting if you want to have a quick convo and keep doing something else. But, awesome nonetheless! Honestly I'm just jazzed to have an on/off button at a higher lumen setting 🤣

    Looks like a good budget headlamp! Cool that you had the previous version and liked it enough to get the new one!

      Thanks Jeff! I love this thing! One of my fav pieces of gear to get outside!

    This is very interesting… never heard of the brand, but I am impressed! Hard to believe it is as inexpensive given the lumens and being rechargeable (didn’t see the USB-C coming at all!) Nice review!

    • @DaveOffGrid
      @DaveOffGrid  2 роки тому +1

      I didn't see it coming either! 🤣 Thanks for watching! Yeah it's the best kept secret out there! Used my old one a bunch and never let me down.

    Is it shatterproof?

    • @DaveOffGrid
      @DaveOffGrid  2 роки тому +1

      Thanks for watching! I would trust it if you dropped it but not if it went careening down a mountainside or hit with a hammer 🤣

      @@DaveOffGrid thanks for replying. reason for my question was with regards to the use of this headlamp in a certain working environment where the integrity of any instruments/equipment being used in those premises is quite critical. 🙂
