The REI Member Dividend
The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.
Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.
Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

Don't leave out the kids! The 2010 Black Diamond Wiz headlamp lets youngsters enjoy hands-free lighting, just like the adults!
- Wiz was designed with children in mind; it's not only smaller than adult headlamps, it's thoroughly tested to stand up to kid-type abuse
- Elastic band has pull-away fittings so if a child catches it on a limb or door handle it simply comes apart under the pressure
- Lightweight Wiz has 2 LEDs and a dimming feature that allows you to set the light output; LEDs put out 16 lumens on high and throw light up to 12m
- LEDs cast even, white light and are nearly indestructible
- Headlamp automatically turns off after 4 hrs. to save battery life, in case a child falls asleep with it on or forgets to turn it off
- Tiltable housing lets the youngster adjust the natural direction of light to suit his or her needs
- Operates for up to 50 hrs. on low with 2 AAA batteries, included
Please note: Black Diamond products can only be shipped to U.S. addresses.

Comments about Black Diamond Wiz Headlamp - Kids':
Brutally bad. Cheap, dim, and worst of all, needs a tiny screw driver to open it. Ours wouldn't open without two engineers and a lot of effort. I'm glad, because I can make a legitimate return and buy my daughter a real headlamp.

Comments about Black Diamond Wiz Headlamp - Kids':
I bought this headlamp for my son to use on Boy Scout campouts. As a rule of thumb, I seek out the least expensive products to send out with him, especially flashlights, etc. as they are commonly lost.
I installed the batteries without any problem. Apparently, on the second night, the headlamp stopped working. He said that he was using it and the light went out. He and I both assumed that the battery died. I replaced them and found that the unit had, in fact, stopped working.
I have owned other black diamond products and they have served me well, however, I would not recommend this unit based on my experience.

Comments about Black Diamond Wiz Headlamp - Kids':
Got this for my daughter for Christmas; nice bright lamp however changing the batteries is a problem. You need a tiny phillips screw driver. Going to be problematic if the batteries die while away from home. Still not bad for kids.

Comments about Black Diamond Wiz Headlamp - Kids':
Bought 2 of these for my girls 5 and 7 for Christmas this year. I agree that having to unscrew the battery cover is a bit much. A pinch cover would have been a nicer feature. But the girls love them and the pink band. Happy to have their own headlamps!

Comments about Black Diamond Wiz Headlamp - Kids':
After reading the comments below, I decided to buy the product for my 2-year-old daughter. She loves it, and the strengths given by the other reviewers hold true. The negative given by the others was the small screw that needs to be undone to change the batteries. Great news: this is NOT a problem. When you put the batteries in for the first time (using the small screw driver provided), just DON'T re-tighten the screw! The battery compartment snaps shut anyway!

Comments about Black Diamond Wiz Headlamp - Kids':
I bought two of these, one for my 5 yr old nephew and another one for my 2 1/2 yr old niece. They love them! I am looking into introducing them both into camping this summer, and these headlamps have gotten them really interested in going... Only downside to these is the tiny little screwdriver that you need to open the battery compartment. As long as you put it in a safe place where you'll remember where it is, it will be fine.

Comments about Black Diamond Wiz Headlamp - Kids':
I was looking for a cheap,compact headlamp to carry in a pocket for work. It's a basic headlamp for a fair price. I actually didn't notice the little "safety screw" thing until I got it home. Like most people I know, I usually don't carry a mini-phillips screwdriver with me. I am probably going to leave it "unlocked" by not tightening the screw. It will stay together regardless. Special note; the included screwdriver will probably have the tip end in the handle (so pull out and reverse ends). Will keep since returns for me are a hassle. But next time would probably go for the next model up?

Comments about Black Diamond Wiz Headlamp - Kids':
My boys love this headlamp. We have been the proud owners for a few years now...very sturdy. Wonderful bright light, and adjustable for their heads. They love wearing them in bed at night to read. It's also nice that the battery is not one of the button-cell types (expensive to replace), just 2 AAA batteries. And for all those reviews complaining about the small screw...how great that Black Diamond includes a small screw driver!!!!
LOVE LOVE THIS PRODUCT!!!

Comments about Black Diamond Wiz Headlamp - Kids':
What started as a gift for our 2 yr. old has become a family favorite. It stays put, is very comfortable, and puts out nice light for such a little lamp. The older members of our family have more powerful lamps, but we end up using this one all the time because it's so small and slips easily into a pocket. It's also perfect for reading because it's very light and comfortable for extended use. We live and camp in the heart of bear country and it's important to have decent light for middle of the night trips to the restroom and this little lamp does great. It does require a mini screwdriver (which anyone who has kids or wears glasses already has) but it's not a downside at all compared to how handy it is!! We actually just ordered a couple of extra so that our 2 yr old can have his back. Great find! Thank you Grandma and Papa!

Comments about Black Diamond Wiz Headlamp - Kids':
Works fine for my daughter, who isn't old enough to be picky about headlamps. When I went to change the battery, I couldn't open it because it requires a tiny phillips screw driver, which I don't have. What a pain. Will return it and get a real head lamp.
