A mighty, heavy-duty head torch from black diamond. Perfect for winter trail runners, night skiers and night hikes.
Black Diamond says:
The redesigned Icon 700 is our brightest, most powerful headlamp designed for backcountry skiers, ultra-runners, and adventurers who demand high-output lighting. Now featuring 700 lumens of power, an updated user interface, and a multi-faceted optical lens design that saves battery life, the Icon 700 is a full-featured waterproof headlamp, ready to defy the dark.
Our Verdict
This is a comfortable, fully waterproof headlamp. I like the "Brightness Memory" feature, which remembers which setting you had on last and will go back to when you tune the torch back on; this saves on accidental blinding incidents when you get up in the middle of the night.
The torch and battery combined can be cumbersome, so the headtorch distributes its weight with a headband that comes over the top of the head and around the head. If you like to run with a cap, this can be a pain, but OK with a beanie.
