Survivalist7@Survivalist7 is correct, there are two models and this is the newer, more powerful 150 lumen model. Thanks for asking @Jeelkins

Survivalist7I already own a 90 lumen Princeton Tec headlamp, with a top strap, and battery pack.
It is around a 2010 model, as I remember my brother bought it for me.
I use the Enerloop rechargeable batteries, and it seems to work fine with them.
The 90 lumens also seems to be bright enough, and I have used it in the Alaskan wilderness, and just about anywhere I live or travel to visit.
By the way, from what I remember, Princeton Tec warranties everything for life, or at least that is what my brother told me.
My battery cover would not stay closed properly, and I mailed it to them, and they fixed it, and mailed it back, with no questions asked.
I recently received a special deal from Sears, so I picked up the Princeton Tec Sync 90 lumen model, which I am waiting to receive.
I wanted something good, with a red LED, and again, the 90 lumens has always proved sufficient, in fact, I am usually running on low or medium most of the time at night.
Anyway...I wonder if they got the description right, as like it was stated in this discussion, there is also a 150 lumen model out there.
I only paid around $14.00, so I guess I paid a very fair, or probably very good price, which included free shipping.
Who knows, maybe I will pick up a 150 lumen model later.
I am also interested in the Foxelli MX500, and the Coast HL27 which both have a lot more lumens, and other nice features like adjustable beams, diffusers, etc.

Survivalist7Correction, I just received my Princeton Tec Syn headlamp from Sears, and I was wrong, as I received a 150 lumen headlamp, and not a 90 lumen headlamp as I thought.
I only paid around $14.00, so I guess I paid a very fair, or probably an excellent price, which included free shipping.
