The Icon Headlamp by Black Diamond is for serious night owls. Its compact front housing holds the three-watt LED flanked by four SuperBright LEDs to produce either a night-piercing searchlight-up to 80 meters-or bright ambient lighting. The Icon's battery-power meter uses three colored indicator lights to intuitively display remaining battery power-green (50% or more), yellow (20% or more) and red (less than 20%). Battery-saving circuitry and a glove-friendly Positron switch enable you to access multiple brightness settings and strobe mode for both the three watt and the Superbright LEDs.

"If you need one this is it" 		          10/25/09
Solid headlamp, love the combo of leds and spotlight, it gives the headlamp great versatility. I work at a golf course and sometimes i find myself working late at night and use this headlamp to see my way around without any other light source. Just using aaa's now, but plan on buying the rechargeable pack. mad love -dh

"Bright" 		          10/11/09
For starters I have had headlamps in the past and they don't even compare to this. The setting with the side LEDS will flood a trail, campsite, etc with light. The focus beam throws light really far! I was shining it in a field that is 50-60 yards away and it was clearly lit. The battery pack is a bit heavy, but compared with my 10 year old headlamp w/out a battery pack, the difference in weight was negligible. $65 bucks may seem pricey, but after you use it you will understand. My neighbor says he wants one every time he stops by.

Too big and expensive to compete with the Petzl models...

"Light weight lamp, but centre strap needs more adjustability" 		          08/19/09
The lamp is powerfull and shines further than most LED lamps. However center strap is not long enough when fitted to a helmet. I use it without the center strap, but needs a helmet that has a head lamp retainer.

"Sweet headlamp" 		          07/30/09
I was looking for a new headlamp and found the perfect one. If you are looking for a serious headlamp for any sort of adventure this is what you are looking for. super bright but burns forever on lowest setting.

"Not the cheapest, but worth the price" 		          07/10/09
Great headlamp. According to the user manual, can reach 100m with brand new batteries. That drops to 80m within 30min. The operating times stated online do not match those printed in the manual. 3W bulb will last 85hrs on brightest setting (145h on lowest), but only shines to 35m after 10hrs of use. The bright setting is VERY bright...good for night hikes, but smaller side lights are great for inside tents, etc. I LOVE the battery indicator lights and direct plug-in for battery charger. VERY comfortable. You will not regret this purchase!

"best all around headlamp ever" 		          06/03/09
spotlight is better than most flashlights. extremely durable, i use it at least 3 or 4 times a week turning it of and on for a couple hours at a time. just changed the batteries for the first time in 6 months (the batter indicator light is great). dropped it off buildings, thrown tools on it, gets wet and greasy. top strap helps it stay in place. i've bought two and getting ready to add another. one for the work truck, one for the play truck and one for the bedroom. dont let the battery pack scare you. if your neck cant support three AAA batteries then you shouldn't be doing stuff in the dark anyway.

"da besta" 		          06/02/09
First off, I LOVE black diamond. 100% bias. I have had this headlamp in the past and it has been through A LOT, lemme tell ya (i.e. caving, hiking, finding stuff in the abyss I have in the back of my 4runner. But overall, best headlamp ever. Very comfortable on the head and durable as sh*t.

"Bright as day" 		          05/26/09
Love this lamp and its many settings. It is great for all kinds of settings. Only problem with it is that I have to readjust it almost every time I use it and the batter pack could have a little better design. other than that it is great.

"The bomb.com" 		          04/19/09
This headlamp has saved me on multiple trips. On several occasions I have been hiking well after dark through thick woods. The icon lights up the trial like an artificial sun. It is light weight and an essential piece of equipment. well done black diamond.

"Bright! Absolutely perfect design." 		          04/09/09
I love this thing. It is the brightest headlamp that I have ever owned, especially when using the spotlight mode. I did some early alpine ascents with my friends and I had to pick up my own. The only thing that I don't like about the design is the rather large battery pack, other than that, it is great.

"One of the best headlamps i have purchased" 		          04/01/09
This is one of the best lights i have purchased in a long time! I use it for those long night Kayak paddles, used it hiking in the mountains in colorado, I keep it in my truck for emergencys like a flat tire which i got a couple of weeks ago in the middle of the night. I had a cop stop to help who even commented on the light saying wow you dont need my headlight to see anything do you. if you put it in the mode with the main spot light on it will light up the ground in front of you like it is daylight. all in all this is a badass light which i recommend to anybody!!!!!! get it you will love it!!!!
