Battery life is an oxymoron with this device
I bought this in November 2023 as Christmas present. We use headlamps during the spring, summer and fall camping seasons. After a full charge The battery lasts for maybe 15 minutes before it becomes to dim to see. Heck a clear night with a full moon shined more light. I have a competing brand and for the amount we use it mine will last an entire week one one charge (it also charges in half the time of the billet despite a USB 2 and a micro USB connection.One trip from the campsite to the facilities pretty well drains the biolote rendering it useless

It’s the most frustrating headlight I’ve ever used
It has a single button for 100 different functions, the headband is too delicate in some parts and too bulky in others so it’s unbalanced, the tight rubber-bands for resistance make it too difficult to adjust without having to sit down and really take some time with it, but then it just comes loose after about 30 mins of wearing. Battery life is very short no matter how much you dim it, much shorter than most cheaper models. Fabric is too hot because of how it’s so flush against your skin. Very bright bulb, like super bright. Nice safety light on rear batter.

Bright light that lasts!
I bought this headlamp in June and it has become my favorite accessory for camping. The different light options meet all my needs. I love the red/white spot options. I also love that it's rechargeable.

BioLite 425 headlight
I have been using my 425 for 2 year and I love the convenience and fit. I use it all the time walking my dogs, especially in the winter when it gets dark before I get home from work. I love that I can top off the battery and always hit the trail full charged.

Love the Fit & Design!
Recently purchased the 425 headlamp after my old headlamp died on me. As an avid trail runner, I LOVE how it fits and practically disappears on my head while I'm running. I barely feel any bounce and the beam is super powerful.

Awesome headlamp - light, bright and easy to use!
I bought this headlight for nighttime trail running and it did not disappoint! Long lasting, comfortable and super bright, it has all the features I was looking for, including a flashing rear light for ultimate visibility! The bright orange color makes it simple to find in my gear bag and the quick charge via USB-C means it's easy to keep it powered up whenever I need. I couldn't be happier!

10/10 Quality headlamp for hiking and emergencies!
My son in law gave me this great BioLite headlamp for hiking the Inca Trail and it worked great and super comfortable. So helpful that you can top it up with a power bank Added bonus is that it is rechargable with USB-C. I like that I don't need to throw out disposable batteries every time I need to charge it.

Quality Headlamp!
I purchased the headlamp a month ago and it has quickly become my go-to headlamp. It's design makes it super comfortable. I've taken it out hiking and biking at night, and it's been fantastic. Strap is easy to adjust - I can easily give it to my kids to wear when they ask (demand) it. The controls and user interface are likewise very versatile and easy to figure out. My two kids took it and played with it in their darkened room for hours going through all the modes. And it's resilient too, as it can be thrown around by two young boys and come out looking no worse for wear! The light output is great and super strong. The strongest setting is near blinding when my kids shine it at me, but great for evening bike rides. Overall, I highly recommend it. Comfortable, high quality, and tough as hell!

Best headlamp I’ve own
Absolutely love this headlamp. Have been into camping and hiking for the last 15 years and have had several headlamps - this is by far the most comfortable and useful. Would definitely recommend!
