I picked up a Zebra H30-Q5 light and love it.

It has 3 perfect lumen settings, I love the waist clip, and the weight is great for a headlamp capable of off trail night navigation. Recently I picked up a steripen adventurer so my light and uv purifier now use the same CR123’s – which works out well.

My only reservation thus far is it seems to turn on easy. For those who use the light, are you finding it turned on in your pack on accident? if so how do you prevent it from being bumped to the on position? i was thinking a small container to protect it from turning on may be worthwhile (e.g. small child’s playdoh or prescription vial container, etc).

It pays to read the manufacturer's website before asking questions… (sorry)

"When the light is OFF, slightly unscrewing the tailcap can prevent the light from unwanted activations."

When I saw the light for the first time (on a picture), my first idea was to add some protective ring around the switch. The best way would be to replace the original ring around the cap with custom made part, but it should be possible just to gle something on top of the existing one.
