I have the BD Spot, is this as decent? Always looking for another tiny headlamp because I always lose them.

Also check out the Petzl e+Lite (item# PTZ 0236). CR2032 batteries are sort of pricey, but it's a pretty cool little headlamp that doesn't just have to be for "emergencies", and it is "tiny". Weighing less than an ounce, and being super versatile for about everything except throwing out a long, narrow beam, you could even easily justify carrying both this and your Spot. As a designer, I think you'll appreciate it's form and function.

Personally I like the Black Diamond Spot better. The XP 2 has only one bright spot whereas the BD Spot has three LED's in addition to a spot which can be switched between three levels of brightness & a strobe. Both headlamps are very high quality & either would be a great choice.
