I'm getting ready to order a Boss light. I am considering the soft cap with the hard liner, however I have always used a bump cap. Any opinions good or bad?

Thanks

Folks I have been a sunfire/sunspot fan for years. I got one last Friday and love it. I actually use the green more than the white light.

I originally ordered the soft cap with liner but when i got it i saw that the soft cap is rivoted to the liner so the cap cant be replaced. (not easily anyway). I always got a new soft cap every couple yrs when i was using them with the belt light because they would get nasty from sweatin. Sent the soft cap back and went with bump cap for this reason.

I heard guys discussing these new soft/hard caps last night. But my question would be, are they hotter than blazes in the summer??? The bump caps are ventilated and are not sitting directly on your head. So air can still get in. These soft caps with hard liners, look to me like they would not only wrap your head, it would also insulate it???

My opinion is the Black Bump Cap works better for me, for the reasons you mentioned deschmidt27. The suspension sits on my head with some air around it.
