- Honest reviewThe catch, not just the hype
Why this gift works
Outdoor climbers start early and finish late, and the walk out in the dark is where a headlamp earns its keep. The Spot 400 reaches 400 lumens with a beam of up to 100 m, has proximity and distance modes, dimming, strobe and a red night-vision mode, and is waterproof to IPX8.
PowerTap switches between full and dimmed power with a tap on the side, a battery meter shows what is left, and brightness memory brings it back on at the last setting. It runs on three AAA batteries, which are included, or Black Diamond's rechargeable BD 1500 battery sold separately.
Who is this gift for?
Great for
- A climber who hikes in to the crag at dawn
- Someone who camps near the climbing area
Think twice if
- They only climb in a gym
- They want built-in USB charging
The catch
It runs on AAA batteries out of the box - making it rechargeable means buying Black Diamond's BD 1500 battery separately.
Skip for a climber who only climbs indoors, or who already owns a good headlamp.
Worth knowing before you buy
- It weighs about 86 g with AAA batteries.
- This listing is the dark olive color.
Why we like it
- 400 lumens with a 100 m beam

Questions people ask
