What do yu want to use it for? If it's for airsoft doesn't 70 lumens seem a bit excessive for a headlight?
The laptop is mightier than the pistol.

Re: Which type of headlight ?
We can all be guilty in Airsoft, of being a bit excessive, and also a bit gullible, but in the case of a headlight, do you really need to be, I went to B&M and be bought two, at, I think £4.50 each, in case, being cheap, one failed, it didn't and it hasn't, and it does me fine.. I've wised up, I'll still happily pay £500 for a gun, but I certainly won't pay £100 for a weapon light, or £250 for a vest, we just don't need to,we're only playing, in my opinion, go up to maybe 10 or even 15 quid for your headlamp, if you need to, but there's not much point in paying more..
"This is my rifle, it's just a toy one, there are many like it, they're toy ones too, without it, i'm £250 better off, without me, it gathers dust in the corner, we're just big boys playing soldiers, lets try and remember that" play fair have fun.

Lots of experiences and recommendations, but as BigAl rightly states, what do you want to use it for?

Re: Which type of headlight ?
I use headlamps for work so a powerful one is useful for me. But for airsoft surely you only need a low poweed one for read maps navigation etc as the light will point everywhere you look and be a liability. A powerful weapon light is differant and more useful and 60 - 200 lumens is about right for this use.
