• PETZL headlamp didn't make it

    From Louis Ohland@21:1/5 to All on Wed Oct 26 07:13:08 2022
    Bought a Petzl in '08, slummed around NW Afghanistan for just under nine months, then it kept going, had to knot up one end of the headstrap to
    make up for the elastic stretching out. Rubber seal over pushbutton tore
    out, took a bit of fingernail action to hit the small plunger. But it
    still worked and with fresh batteries, it was able to light up the night.

    Until Ben found it this morning. Foundt all three AAA batteries. All the plastic and rubber parts.
