Lots of options for brightness and a few different color options I also bought the battery pack which is nice to not worry about using batteries. Very happy with my purchase.

The newest version of this headlamp has made it very intuitive to cycle through the light colors and brightness settings. I now have a couple of these that I keep in my hunting packs, glovebox, and bino harnesses.

My Go-to Headlamp
Primary use is hunting and military. Simple and intuitive controls with dependable battery life. I’ve put this headlamp through the gamut of weather conditions and temperatures and never have to pull out the backup. My only recommendation would be moving the battery status lights to the side or even the back. Especially when working with low light, turning off the light and having bright blue light directly in your eyes isn’t ideal.

Excellent headlamp that was on sale. Easy to use and is lightweight. I use it in the shop, fixing in the engine bay, and I also use it snowmobiling.

Love It!
Wasn't sure if I needed the extra features (water-proof and red/green/blue lighting). I used/needed every feature on the very first outing. It's user friendly, and worth every penny.

Great For Camping Or Everyday Use
This headlamp is lightweight, bright, and easy to use. The beam is powerful enough for night hiking and camp tasks, and adjustable so it’s not blinding when doing close-up work. Battery life is great and lasts a while for my needs. The headband is comfortable and stays in place even during movement. This headlamp is reliable and I’ll continue bringing it on camping or hiking trips.

Most Phenomenal Headlamp I've Ever Worn!
I've been using this headlamp for just the past few weeks but its been absolutely fantastic so far, makes me want to toss the other crappy ones I still have lol. super adjustable and intuitive to use, I also got a Cosmo for my dad and he loves both for everything from climbing, hiking, and working on cars and stuff around the house. Amazing product BD!!

Amazing
Put my new Storm 450 to use immediately and was not disappointed. The illumination is great, it is a powerful spotlight with a wide-angle beam. I really like the ability to increase brightness with a tap of the finger, and the red, green, and blue light modes are very useful and cool.

Great Headlamp
I’ve had many Black Diamond headlamps over the years and they have all performed well. I like the extra water resistance and brightness of the Storm 450 compared to the Spot series for a small weight and size penalty. Great combination of feature for those pre Dawn adventures.

Very Bright
I've used this headlamp several times to get into the duck blind, and out. The light intensity can be adjusted for what you need at the time. It's very easy to get it to high beam with one touch. The ability to choose between red light and green light help with eye adjustment in early mornings.

Great Headlamp Overall
I really like the small compact form factor of the headlamp. I like the high-low beam option on the side of the headlamp just by touching the side. I've used this headlamp for a few years now for hunting, and performed well. The only cons/dislikes I have is 1: battery compartment is hard to open when your hands are cold. , 2: not having a case or an option for a case pitches, so your lens does not get scratched or roughed up when packing away in a pouch, backpack, or pocket. Would really like to see the case option for the headlamps
