Headlamps

I have a tiny LED headlamp with 14500 battery. Very small so easy to wear. Much cheaper from Ebay China than the Boruit. However I detest the multifunction switch going through all modes just to switch it off. Why can't we just have switch on on flashlights headlamps etc. The 14500 battery does not last very long and would be better with 18650. I can't find the little one I bought on Ebay any more however I would go for something like this LED Headlamp Head Flashlight Torch Fishing Headlight LED Bulbs Lamp | eBay ol'will

The various Petzl torches have a nice interface whereby pressing the button repeatedly moves you between modes (bright, dim, flash which is enough), a long press switches between white and red, but crucially after a few seconds of use a single press will immediately turn it off. It also remembers whether it was in white or red previously so you don't accidentally blind yourself.

Generally they are 3xAAA, though new offerings may have lithium options.
