I'm looking at getting my Dad a good one for Christmas. I dont mind spending $50-$75 for a good one. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Is it duck season yet?

Any with 5 L.E.D.s work good. It would also be good to have some red L.E.D.s in the mix.

These work good. Fits in the budget too. I'm a big fan of Petzl products. We use their tower climbing gear.  Petzl Headlamp

Princeton tech apex. You can find them on ebay right in the 70 buck range. I would get the regular one thats what I have. The pro model uses some kind of lithium batteries that might last longer but im sure are harder find replacements. The regular one uses 4 AA. It lasts forever has 4 settings and they are great if you ever break it. I dropped mine from a tree stand first of this year. The light still worked but the lens was shattered. I called them they asked me to send it back and it will be repaired for free.. I highly recommend them.
