Why We Like The Storm 500-R Headlamp

Black Diamond is enhancing its Storm headlamp lineup with the new R-Series lamps. This particular Storm 500-R Headlamp is a high-lumen and multi-mode lamp that gives us the power to fully illuminate our nights with nine different lighting modes and the potential for 5H of charge time at the highest setting. We really like that the Repreve headband stops that uncomfortable, hair-pulling sensation we often get with cheaper headlamps.

Multiple Uses

This headlamp has so many features. The variable adjusting main lamp. The red lamp. I find in useful for hiking, hunting and cleaning up dog poop while walking the dog. The head band is strong and easy to adjust.

Great headlamp With lots of

Great headlamp With lots of lighting options. I wish it was a little more compact. I was hoping to use it for work but it is too bulky for that application.

Very bright, great lamp

I bought this product for a trip to the Grand Canyon and it worked great. Battery life is very good, and it puts out a serious amount of light. I used the red and green functions quite a bit, and was very happy with how bright they were.

Packs a Punch!

Very powerful for being such a lightweight headlamp. Have used it for some night hikes and it works great!

Good headlamp that can be great!

Great Headlamp! Easy to use once you get the hang of it. Features including color, white light and dimming are useful. Three features that could be better: 1. charging port would be a usb-c instead of a micro-usb. (The headlamp does come with a micro usb to usb c adapter) 2. The charging port cover should be water proof. Doesn’t quite fit snug into port which when used in rain will allow water ingress. 3. Flexible Head strap should be wider. My previous black diamond headlamps had wider straps. Wider is more comfortable.

A great headlamp

I find it really useful and the battery life so far has been great and once I got used to it going through all the different modes as good but the printed diagrams in the instructions would have been better with a short description. USB C for one less cable would have been nice as well.

Good lamp

Headlamp is very bright... Nice for early morning runs. Can angle it down slightly which is a feature I needed when running with a dog. The only drawback is the incredibly short charging cord. I have to rig it up by placing an object underneath to keep it plugged into the outlet.
