Amazing Headlamp

I love my new headlamp! It came in good time and has worked very well! I charged it fully when I got it and used the red light every night for like 1/2 an hour and it was not even used up a month later when I recharged it.

Turns “What Was That Noise?” Into “I Wish I Hadn’t Looked. ”

The Black Diamond Storm 500-R is ideal for anyone who enjoys hiking but feels the sun isn’t taking its responsibilities seriously. Strap this thing on and you immediately become the guy everyone asks to find stuff. Tent stake? Got it. Dropped snack? Found it. Your buddy’s dignity after screaming at a chipmunk? Unfortunately, that’s outside the beam’s range. It also adds excitement to conversations. Look directly at your friend while talking and suddenly he’s being interrogated about a crime he didn’t commit. The controls take a little getting used to. I wanted a different setting and briefly felt like I was entering a cheat code on a Nintendo. Pretty sure I unlocked a new species of moth. Best feature: both hands stay free, so you can hold your coffee and confidently point in the wrong direction.

The Headlight Is Fine The

the headlight is fine the charge port is old style not usb-c

Solid With The Basics

I was wondering about the battery life, but this has proved to be a non-issue. It holds a charge for a long time. I wanted something simple, that does the basics well, and this headlamp fits the bill perfectly. Whether I'm simply going for a walk at night or going camping, this has worked great. Highly recommend.

Black Diamond Headlight

Very good light but it's a little hard to get it to the light that I want

Light It Up

Everything you would expect from a BD headlamp. Great battery, almost too many options and durable.

Bomber

Really enjoying it so far, very functional including with bulky cold-weather gloves and getting drenched by horizontal rain at 1am while boogeying away from a flash flood situation. My only (tiny) gripe is that the battery level indicator LEDs shine on my face for a second or two before shutting off

Lightweight And Reliable

Doesn’t get much better than this! New improved headband and overall headlamp size brings down the weight from previous years.

Siiiick Headlamps!

I now own 3 of these guys, I love them! Lots of modes and killer battery life!

Blue Battery Light Disrupts Night Vision

I like the concept of this headlamp (large rechargeable battery, bright, has a red light) but it was heavier than I expected. The battery indicator light is also unfortunately positioned on the bottom of the headlamp in such a way that when you turn on and off the light, the blue light of the indicator disrupts your night vision.

Bd Continues To Lead The Way!

I love this headlamp! I was worried the battery may not have sufficient life or not handle the cold well, but I've been blown away with its performance on both fronts! Highly recommend this to anyone needing lighting for an early morning climbing mission.

I Love Lamp!

This is easy to use with simple buttons to cycle through the different options and brightness. The best part is that it’s rechargeable!

So Far So Great

After years of abuse my old one died. I hope this one last through as many climbs, trainings and rescues.

Great Product

Great headlamp gets the job done in any conditions

The Only Headlamp Worth Buying

Got myself two of these and a portable solar charger panel for me and my wife. Haven’t need new headlamps since. Actually have had a few friends ditch their headlamps to start using these just cause they have great battery life and every feature you’d need.
