Purchased this expensive headlight as a replacement for the previous 'Actik Core' model which also failed. Both models stopped functioning after walking in light rain for about 15 minutes. I am always checking the weather conditions before heading out for my daily 2 hours evening walks, but there are unexpected surprises now and then. I would have thought that given how difficult it is to open the battery compartment, a few drops of rain would be no problem. PETZL, a reliable adventures enthusiast's supply vendor? Not in my experience.
