Comments about Black Diamond Storm Headlamp:
Took this out on a few weekend camping trips, some car, some backcountry. Loved it! Crazy bright and the batteries never run out, (yet). Lightweight and adjustable. No regrets

Comments about Black Diamond Storm Headlamp:
This was my first headlamp and was a gift. I wasnt really interested at first in having something strapped to my forehead but after playing around with this for some time I carry it around all the time and even use it around the house. Recently exchanged it for the Diamond Revolt and so far they seem to be exactly the same light except the revolt is rechargeable and also takes one less AAA if i use standard batteries. Its a good light but I would say going the extra ten dollars for the Revolt is more worth the money. Awesome first light though.

Comments about Black Diamond Storm Headlamp:
I already have a Black Diamond Gizmo headlamp (3 LEDs, 2 AAA batteries) that I'm happy with. I bought a Storm headlamp using my 20% off coupon and my dividend, I thought waterproof and red LED would be cool features to have. I didn't care about the high power LED mode, that was just a bonus.
I ended up returning the Storm as it just wasn't comfortable on my noggin, YMMV. The IIRC the Storm weighs about 4oz with batteries and the headband was loose - when I had it tightened enough that it wouldn't slip on my head it put uncomfortable pressure on my forehead.
I'm giving it 3 stars because I didn't find it comfortable, otherwise I'd probably give it 4 stars.

Comments about Black Diamond Storm Headlamp:
I NEVER write comments, usually it's a waste of my own time. But i HAD to write one for this headlamp. I use this headlamp on my fire helmet to free up the weight and my hands during operations. While in a fire a few nights ago, myself and another guy were under so much heat that our helmet visors melted along with some other parts. The fire cam we had (made for heat) also briefly stopped working from the heat, but worked later after cooling off. This headlamp, NOT A MARK ON IT. The elastic band that holds it on which I was skeptical about withstood all the head. The band should have snapped off like my partners did, cheap one made from the bunny battery company for 20 bucks. The lamp, worked flawless. Nothing melted on the device at all. SO, if your looking for duribility, this is the one. The 100Lumens is bright yet doesnt have the bulky battery pack the older brother model has at 200Lumens. I would like to see a green light added in the future, but this is the lamp of choice for me. Works great with hiking, camping, literally anything. Haven't brought it underwater yet but it withstood the water from our hose lines so thats a plus.

Comments about Black Diamond Storm Headlamp:
This was an "impulse buy", actually. Now I wish I bought another.
The main lamp on full power is blinding. In "flood" mode it was still plenty bright enough to easily see 25 - 30 feet ahead on a moonless night and the red light is sufficient for moving around the camp site, it also seems to make the reflective strips in reflective cordage really stand out.
There's only one button and it's not very intuitive so be sure to look at the instructions.

I have owned many headlamps, but this one is by far the best I have ever had. I was so impressed with the headlamp that I bought another one for my girlfriend when we go camping.

I use this headlamp on every trip I take, and keep it close around the house in case the power goes out. It's extremely bright, highly adjustable, comfortable on the head, and not too heavy.

Comments about Black Diamond Storm Headlamp:
I have used this lamp while camping, hiking, and swimming. It is waterproof. The battery life is good. I love the red "night vision" light as well as the option of having a white spotlight vs a white broad range light. The dimming feature is easy to use and it's easy to switch between lighting modes. The only thing I don't like is that it has no memory of your previous setting. If you set the light to be very dim and then turn it off, when you turn it back on, it's back to maximum brightness which can be inconvenient for others you're with and can "blind" you if you're used to the dark environment.
