Comments about Black Diamond Icon Headlamp:

I bought this headlamp to use while caving and am very happy with my purchase. The Icon is very bright, and that's the most important feature when you are in the pitch black darkness of a cave. It is a little bit heavy, but doesn't feel overly so when wearing it with a helmet. I like how there are two modes (high beam and 4 LED) and it seems to produce enough light for whatever you need it for. It is brighter than some other headlamps that I have used in the past, and overall I'm very happy with my purchase.

Comments about Black Diamond Icon Headlamp:

I have been very impressed with this headlamp. It is very bright and has a great battery life. This light is plenty bright enough to navigate at dark or go night climbing after work. The only flaw I have found so far, is the plastic battery case and how the batteries fit in the back. A few times I have dropped my headlamp having the batteries come loose. Other than that, great headlamp.
