[Review] The ReVolt Headlamp by Black Diamond

If you’re looking for an affordable, adaptable, and powerful headlamp to guide you home from your adventures in the dark, look no further than the rechargeable LED ReVolt Headlamp by Black Diamond. With a max output of 130 lumens (alkaline batteries) this headlamp will light up the night to get you to where you need to be.

Perhaps the most beneficial feature of the ReVolt for us is the fact that with the included rechargeable batteries, we can recharge the ReVolt with a USB cord (also comes with standard AAA). The ability to either recharge or pop in some standard AAAs really makes this light the perfect companion for any outdoor adventure. You’ll never be left out in the dark either, because the ReVolt has a three-level power meter so you’ll always know how charged up or down you are.

With One TriplePower LED, two SinglePower white LEDs, and two SinglePower red LEDs, you’ll be covered for the scenario that you find yourself in. Not only do you have a powerful and wide-array of LEDs, the ReVolt headlamp also has a dimming, strobe, red night-vision and lock mode.

Weighing in at just 3.4 oz (97 g), the ReVolt is a durable and feature packed headlamp without bulkiness or weight. While it is not waterproof, it is protected against splashing or sprayed water from any angle so it won’t let you down when you find yourself splashing around in the nearest creek bed at night. From past experiences I’ve had, no matter which Black Diamond headlamp you choose, it will outlive many of your other headlamps, take all the abuse you can throw at it, and light up your adventures for years to come.
