Should I get an LED headlamp?
It's blue, $20, and bright as hell, apparently. And for ages I've wanted a wee LED headlamp, be it for late-night reading on the train (such as for this trip) or out camping with friends, whatever. REI-Outlet has what looks like a steal:
REI-Outlet: Princeton Tec Aurora LED Headlamp - Cosmetic Seconds
Couple of ounces in weight too, plus with 3 AAA batteries it should last between 50-160 hours (kind of a broad range though, dontcha think? Joe - are these press release lies?)
Chris Albon, Joe E - what do you guys think? I'm kinda diggin' it, and $20 ain't bad. I could use it on the trip (I'm constantly scribbling and reading late at night, so good light is a good thing), and even once I'm home it'll come in handy when hitting the ol' outdoors and such.
How my Visa hand twitches...

You should buy it.

Definitely buy it..
Im actually gonna buy one for my own trip because the LED handlight (the one I showed you) is impossible to read with without much strain of the neck.
We can buy them and be light buddies heh
