Dorcy 285 Lumen LED Headlamp

Product Review (submitted on November 30, 2017):

I used to buy these routinely but a couple of years ago the build quality diminished. Namely, the plastic that holds the headband snapped off after a few uses. Prior to that it was a great light. Light weight, comfortable, and with good illumination. I inspect restaurant grease traps and these were great for mounting on my hard hat or brow. It is disappointing that the build quality has suffered so. Once the plastic retaining clip breaks there isn't much you can do with it. If the plastic was ABS (think LEGOS) then it would be far less likely to break and I would have given it 5 stars instead of 1 star. After two of these broke in less than a month I stopped buying them. Please improve the build quality. Light output is excellent and battery life was around 50 hours regular use (best recollection). This could be an outstanding product, but for now give it a pass.
