What kind did you get?

Princeton Tec Quad. It even has a strobe on it. I can wear that when I
fly at night and have a frontal strobe! :^)

There goes the night vision! g

How many LED's does it have, Quad, meaning 4? How many watts?

I would think you would need a lot of brightness for night skiing, but I
don't know. There is not a lot of scross country skiing, here at the foot
of the "mountains" in NC. g I went one time with a friend while visiting
in Ohio, a very long time ago.

Yup 4. Not sure on the wattage but it is 21 lumens. That is very very
bright for a headlamp.

We live in Central Mass. Lots of great cross country skiing around here,
assuming there is snow, which we don't have yet. So the gadgets will
have to wait, unless I do some night hiking which my dog would enjoy
instead of the skiing.

Does it mount on a helmet? A helmet seems like a good idea
for night skiing. How is Sonny Bono?

It could mount on a helmet but I don't wear one. I appeciate the concern
Jim but this is cross country skiing. No faster than jogging. I don't
wear a helmet when I walk around either, unless I am chewing gum.

Ho! Ho! Ho! I'll start -- Santa was good to us this year! He brought
us...

- Rod Machado's DVD "Aviation Humor", Part I
- Microsoft Flight Simulator X Pro for the Kiwi
- Some more screwdrivers, pliers, and cordless driver bits for my son
to lose

Nothing specific for Atlas this year, but we just did the 496 panel
dock/XM radio thing, and had to buy a new "Mighty Grape" fuel truck --
so that's enough of an aviation upgrade for our Christmas season...

How 'bout you? Whad'ja find in *your* Christmas stocking?

:-)

My son, home for his first Christmas at home in four years (thanks to the
Navy)

My colleague and I got our Christmas present early, on Friday. Stuck
in Denver with commercial air traffic at a halt, our company decided to
send the company jet for us. Picked us up at Centennial at 8:30am, and
arrived at home at 11:30. At home with the family for Christmas:
priceless!

You should mention the company's name as that is a company worth doing
business with.
