Black Diamond Ion Headlamp

Keep it in your pocket or stashed in your pack, the Black Diamond Ion is so light and compact there's no reason to ever be left in the dark again.

• Great as an emergency backup or as your primary light for featherweight expeditions, the Ion is the size of a book of matches
• One bright 0.5-watt LED bulb lights the way; high and low settings let you determine how much light you need
• Pivotable head allows you to aim the beam where you need it most; tough construction withstands use in rain, snow and sleet
• On/off switch requires you depress the button for one second to turn on, reducing inadvertent, battery-draining operation while stowed in your pack
• Slim half-inch elastic headband adjusts with a slider to fit over a climbing helmet or a hat
• Battery included

A great ultralight backup light, the new Black Diamond Ion is small enough to stash just about anywhere, plus the reflector-housed, 1/2 watt LED casts a far-reaching beam for finding your way up that final pitch of 5.11 or down that last mile back to the trailhead. BD's lightest headlamp at 30 grams (1 oz), the Ion has a pivoting head that angles the light anywhere you need it, and a replaceable 6-volt battery provides power for 15 hours at the low setting and 3 hours on high. Yes, the Ion is unnoticeable in size and weight, but don’t let its diminutive size fool you—this two-setting headlamp is Black-Diamond-tough, able to withstand apocalyptic levels rain and sleet. Weight: 30 g (1oz) Weight with 6-volt battery: 31 g (1.1 oz)

The Icon, with its blowtorch-like three-watt LED, is our favorite light for the earliest of early starts up high. Paired with the rechargeable NRG Battery Kit (sold separately), the Icon lowers the impact on your wallet and the environment. And when you’re lucky enough to be nowhere near an outlet, you can use alkalines and the economy setting for up to 200 hours of burn time. The four auxiliary SuperBright LEDs have their own multiple brightness settings and are plenty powerful enough to light up the trail or for brew prep at base camp. The Icon’s battery-power meter is dual-purpose: displaying via a green, yellow or red LED either the amount of battery power left or the charging status of the NRG rechargeable battery.
