I have been considering getting a new miners style headlamp flashlight for my flight bag. I currently have one ( I acutally have a few flashlights in my bag but am considerging a new headlamp, one with LEDs.
A majority of the newer lights work on AAA batteries or sometimes specailty batteries. All of my other equipment,handheld GPS, Transciever, E6B, including other all my current flashlights use AA batteries. I am thinking that if I can keep all equipment using the same size battery It would be safer and easier than having equipment with differnt size batteries. If I have to pop the batteries out of my ANR headsets to put in a flashlight I can if they are both AA.
What are your thoughts. Do you take this into consideration in buying equipment?
