I have had it for two weeks and had it charging for over 24 hours - it will not charge
What a nice light! I really like the option of using the included rechargeable battery but also be able to use standard AAA size batteries if it runs out of juice with no way of charging it. Great for extended adventures and backpacking. Nice light output and very lightweight on the forehead. Definitely a modern headlamp. This is one that I wished I had years ago.
