Headlamp (outdoor)

A headlamp, headlight, or head torch (UK) is a light source affixed to the head typically for outdoor activities at night or in dark conditions such as caving, orienteering, hiking, skiing, backpacking, camping, mountaineering or mountain biking. Headlamps may also be used in adventure races. Headlamps are often used by workers in underground mining (the head-mounted forms of mining lamps), search and rescue, surgeons, and by other workers who need hands-free directed lighting.
