Did a little research after Doug suggested that the Princeton Tec
headlamps are waterproof.

Both the Princeton Tec Solo (2 AA) and Vortec (4 AA) headlamps are
waterproof to 500'.

The Pelican Heads Up (4 AA) is also waterproof to 500' and while it
protrudes a bit more than the PT lamps...has a vertically adjustable
head.

Guess I ought to buy one or more of the above...and some cable ties! ;)

Not sure if I want to night storm paddle....but a helmet is less likely
to fall off your head than a headlamp...and is easier to attach cable
ties to than my face!  Or, I could go low-tech and fasten a chinstrap!
