From Climbing Magazine Issue No. 279 - October 2009
The original Fuel, introduced in 2007, quickly became a go-to headlamp,
with a sturdy, lightweight, and functional design at a friendly price.
The new PRINCETON TEC FUEL ($26.99, princetontec.com), however,
keeps the same price but adds a fourth 5mm Ultrabright LED, upping
the brightness by 10 lumens. Still in play are the big pushbutton power
switch; pivoting, water-resistant body; and four modes (low, medium,
high, and flashing). The new Fuel weighs 2.75oz and runs on three AAA
batteries (included).
