In my opinion I like the 5100 head in summer months because it throws a yellow light as opposed to bright white of a led. Pop covers are a must for led and most don't have a dial to adjust beam. Newer models I believe like the bright eyes have a dial but I have not seen one in the woods. One thing you need to ask about is longevity of the battery. The new hard hat lights with battery attached to back have a limited amounts of charges before it goes bad. A belt light led charged correctly should last you 20 yrs and 5100 should last 10+... A lot of choices and variables to look at. Maybe someone else could explain it better. I have a 21v three bulb led that throws more of a flood bright white and also have a 28v cajun 5100 that has a five click switch and works great in thick trees or summer use. Hope that helps.
