Hi gents. I spent a fair amount of time with the Atom lights, and put together a couple of review videos of them. The AL and Headlamp kit took the most of my attention, and it's certainly an interesting setup. I compared it to my ZL H502w.

The AL review is fairly long, since it includes the Headlamp kit. The A0 is long for a small light review, but I tend to get chatty. I hope you folks enjoy it.

Great review

Only having 6 and 110lm is quite a big jump on paper, is it actually an issue in real life use?
The headlamp adapter is interesting. You showed it rotating a bit, can you mount it on the front of your head or will it only go on the side?

Including information about the strap tension was really good

I prefer stretchier ones because it makes it more likely that it will work on my woolly hat without needing adjustments from without-hat wear.

I can see having a magnet in the tail being really useful, I may have to see if I can add one to my H52f.

Thank you for the video reviews!

I've had an A0 for a few months now. It's hard to appreciate just how compact that light is without having it in hand. I find the low setting (which I THINK is rated at .25 lm) to be super-useful. I also believe the claim is that the light will run for 5 days on that mode, which could be incredible in emergencies.

As nifty as the little A0 light is, I honestly prefer my P1. I'd like it most if the P1's lowest setting was the same as the ultra-low of the A0, but I can't have everything I want. The A0 is currently getting bed-side duties.
