My husband and I bought our Petzl Micros about 4 years ago, and have used them extensively camping, hiking and working in dark corners under the house. He even uses his to read in the car after dark, while I drive, since the focused beam is minimal...
Pros: Lightweight, works well, easy to use. Cons: None
Before I bought the Petzl Micro E03 headlamp, I wondered what the heck people actually use them for. Well, now that I have one, I have found endless uses for it: cycling, camping, and even crawling under the house.
Pros: Light weight, a bit cheaper Cons: Poor construction, corrosion problems, not dependable
This is the second of Petzl's headlamps that I bought. I purchased this headlamp in Scotland when I was on a climbing trip with the Aberdeen University Lairig Club in 1992, and realized I'd forgotten my good headlamp back at my hall of residence. Since...
Pros: not many anymore Cons: bulky, short battery life, uneven beam, old technology
I've never written an obituary before.
I've had a Petzl Micro for, I dont' know, must be ten years or so. It was my first headlamp and great for quite a while. It was lightweight, bright enough to do most things, and it had its batteries...
Pros: Comfortable, just the right brightness, great price Cons: Not suitable for caving or mountaineering

Pros: Strong long lasting light in a small package. Cons: Wish the spare bulb was halogen.
I received the Petzel Micro Light as a gift, so it was not my pick. I’m glad now that the Micro was the one given to me. I love its lightweight small size and bright beam. The beam can be changed from wide to a narrow beam just by turning the bezel...
Pros: lightweight, long battery life, strong beam Cons: none
This little camp light has kept me company many a starless night outdoors, all over the world. It's a tremendous deal, and it coms inhandy when you'd least expect it.
It probably saved my life in New Mexico once in '97, when it allowed me to...
A headlamp is one of the most important things that I bring on any outdoor trip. The Micro is small, light, and compact that I don't even think twice about throwing into my pack. It can also mean the difference between spending a miserable night...
