Looking back, I really wish I’d invested in a quality headlamp much sooner. Trying to navigate power outages or dig through supplies with just a flashlight wedged under my arm was a real hassle. Headlamps free up both hands and make a world of difference for all sorts of tasks. Curious if there’s something you all regret not picking up earlier in your prepping journeys? Any overlooked essentials that turned out to be game changers?

Totally get that—a good headlamp is a real game-changer, especially when you’re trying to tune a guitar or check equipment in the dark. Which model did you end up loving, StarlitNavigator?

I’m right there with you—once I finally got a decent headlamp, I couldn’t believe I ever fumbled around with just a flashlight. That “hands free” thing is such a small change but makes everything easier!
