"So far this is the best running headlamp that I've used that only needs 3 AAA batteries."PirateGirl

(5)

Ease of installation

Put the strap around your head and you are good to go.

(5)

Ease of use

Comes with a cheat sheet on all of the lamp settings. I mostly use the bright spot or the 2 LEDs.

(5)

Quality of Construction

Good. Stretchy headband and the headlamp is easy to tilt and stays in place at a tilted angle when running.

(5)

Fit

Good. Strap is adjustable.

(5)

Comfort

Good.

(5)

Adjustability

Yep, fully adjustable strap.

(5)

Durability

So far so good. The headlamp is protected in a plastic case.

(5)

Value

Good. For a lamp that is 75 lumens, it was a good price.

(5)

Appearance

They offer several different colors to choose from. I went with the flashy Mars red.

Customer Service

Have not had to use the customer service yet.

Performance

The 75 lumen spot lamp is great for running at night. When the sun is starting to come up/go down and I just want to be seen by traffic, I switch to the 2 LEDs.

Strengths

Bright light, doesn't require a battery pack with a cord (it uses 3 AAAs in the back of the lamp), doesn't bounce when you direct the beam at an angle while running, good price.

Weakness

The button to switch it on/off is a little hard to press.
