| Brilliant light 06-18-04 |
Luke Haines
(6):
|
| I bought this light primarily to trail run. Brightness is fantastic and easily outshines other lights in the group. 2 LED's are bright but the one in the middle is awsome. You'll only ever need the 2 LED's to run with. Nice and light so you get use to it very quickly. A very good quality product. Highly recomend this light for running and cycling (yes, it fits under my helmet, bonus is that I can see my cycle computer without its backlight). Oh, and battery consumption is very low. |

| Great Lamp 07-19-04 |

| I have used this lamp on three weekend camping trips so far and it is still going strong. The outside LEDs provide great proximity lighting for campsite tasks, but the center hyperbright LED could be a bit stronger. The bulb does throw off more light than the two outside bulbs but it is a narrow focused beam and doesn't go as far as I would like. However it is still handy lamp to have for campsite tasks and hiking and you can't beat the weight. |

| Bdel Zenix headlamp 10-05-04 |

|
| I really like this headlamp a lot. The two outer LEDs provide a nice flood-type light for when you're just around your campsite or when you're spelunking in some tight passages. The focused beam on the other hand offers an intense beam that goes quite a ways. This beam is really nice for trekking in the middle of the night or for caving and seeing what's way ahead of you. I like it, but on the other hand, I've never used any other type than LEDs so take it for what it's worth. Oh, and I never have to replace my bulb... cause it's an LED! |

| Zenix IQ is great 03-20-05 |
GC Hiker

|
| Wonderful headlamp. It is quite bright at the maximum setting and also has medium, low and blink settings to conserve on power. I bought this for two purposes. First for night hiking in a desert environment like the Grand Canyon. Second for walking my dog at night to make me visible to vehicles. It is serving these purposes well. The quality is good and it is lightweight. I like the fact that it takes two AA batteries because when I'm desert hiking, I can use lithium batteries which are readily available in AA. I would recommend this headlamp to others. |

| This is an awesome LED light. The brightness level is incredible. It is night and day when compare to my Black Diamond Gemini. I would recommend this light for any extended hiking expeditions. Go buy it. |

| To Zenix, or not to Zenix... 02-06-04 |
Bryan from Beard-Land

|
| Here's the facts: the two side LED's on the Black Diamond Zenix are *SUPERB*. But the "distance" Luxeon Star LED in the center has a bluish tint, and the beam is really too tight to be of great use on the trail. Unquestionably, it IS one of the lightest critters I've run into, if weight is your chief concern. But there are other options out there. If you don't mind a Princeton Tec, give the Yukon HL a try- I find it to have a whiter cast. |

| Zenix IQ 03-05-05 |
PalmGuy
(2):
|
| I just bought my IQ for climbing/hiking. I love it. It is the most power of any headlamp I have ever used. The superbright bulbs are really nice but the hyperbright steals it all. Awesome power for one bulb. Better than 4-5 normal LEDs and both of the superbrights. Only problem is the hyperbright doesn't burn that long so you need 1 or 2 spare bulbs to be safe.
Super lightweight- when I got the box I wasn't sure if the headlamp was in it.
Great product for ultra lighting and as a summer and winter lamp.
SuperBright-60 hours on max setting
Hyperbright-8 hours on max setting
(If anyone find replacement Hyperbright bulbs PLEASE e-mail me RyanBuckSlayer@MSN.com Thanks) |

| Good Headlamp, shorter battery life than advertised 05-10-07 |
Gear Guru Tyson
(25):
|
| This is a great headlamp, the dual lenses are awesome. The lower lens is great in the tent when reading or just sitting around. The high light lens is great at night, for an LED it is great. The only draw back is that the battery life isn't great with the high light lens, I've been left without light twice because the batteries were dead. |

| The Best 03-31-07 |
Tim of Gunnison CO
(2):
|
| I have collection of headlamps, if I could only keep one, this would be the one. Most practical well thought out head lamp I seen yet. Runs on two AA’s, water tight, very comfortable, and durable. This one headlamp that never gets put away, use it camping, working on my computer, working on my old hunk of junk 4x4. Got a 2hr run time on max bright, the candle power this has. I suggest running rechargeable batteries in this one, especially if you plan to use the max power like a love to do. Heck even if I did not go camping I will still have this one. I hardly bother with my dewalt flashlights and mag lights any more. A note on the durability… I’ve had this lamp for a couple of years now, tanked a few hundred AA’s, still works like new and still my favorite. |

| Incredible Headlamp 04-17-05 |
Anonymous:
|
| This was exactly what I was looking for. I wanted low light for around camp and a high powered, high distance beam for exploring. The high power beam on this lamp is unbelievably bright. It can throw light farther than my old bulky police style mag light. With just two settings this light would be just fine, but both the beam and the spot lamps have THREE brightness settings. Excellent lamp and an incredible value. I would buy another one in a heartbeat if it were ever lost. Crazy how far the technology has come on these. Good stuff. |

| PalmGuy! UR Wrong about bulb life 04-12-05 |
nfsmith
(1):
|
| Palmguy, What makes you think the "bulbs" will wear out? The hyperbright Zenix IQ "bulbs" are not really bulbs. They are 1 watt Luxeon LEDs, and they are expected to last the life of the product. You will probably never need to replace the LED. I would expect either the strap, switches, or wiring to break first. I've seen many people claiming that the "bulb" life is 100,000 hours. Well, even if it is only 1/10th that amount, 10,000 hours, you could burn it one hour every night for the next 27 years. Times that by 10, if you want to take the higher estimate.

| I have been given this headlamp for use at work (Survival Instructor) and put it throught a spectrum of conditions rain, snow, extreme cold, and worked all night with it alot... I haven't ever had a problem with it or its battery life... the closet thing to a problem was being 20 below and the battery life was a little bit short but other than that its a bomber headlamp. |

| I got this headlamp about 3-4 months ago I've taken it camping, on canoe trips and it's kept up well. I have not been able to check how long the battery really lasts but shortly I will. It is a great lamp, durable, and the two settings are great. Two LEDs are good for all around needs, and spotlight for rare use. Great light. It's not a 5 just because I haven't checked how long it actually lasts on one set of batteries. But, I have used it for 15+ hours and works great. |

| I used this lamp for mountain biking until I got a real HID light. I still take this light biking as a back up.
I use this light for everything from shoveling snow to working on my cars. It makes working on any project so much easier especially if you need both hands to do the job. Anyone who does their own repairs on anything should have one of these. I have one in each of my cars, just in case I brake down, get a flat etc. Priceless.

| Perfect for trail running. Which is why I bought this lamp based on another user's review. It's pretty light and super bright. I originally tried the Vectra IQ, but that was way too heavy for running. Plus it ran off of 4 AA batteries and the Zenix only uses 2. I love the fact that the Zenix puts out a white beam as opposed to a yellow one too. |

| Great headlamp with variety of modes for lamp brightness. The LED lights are very bright too. It's not bulky and is comfortable to wear. One of my favorite features is the small blinking light that shows battery power (green, orange, red) and is also helpful when trying to find it in a dark bag. |

| This is a great headlamp. The main LED light is very bright and lights up a wide area for you. The two smaller lights on the other setting are great too, actually brighter than the main setting on the other (petzl) main setting headlamp we had. The wire and battery pack do take a bit to get used to, but the small amount of extra weight is def. worth having a light that will let you see everything around you. |

| While on a sailing trip we encountered a gnarly tide change and our anchors busted loose at 4am. We all jumped up and I threw on my Zenix IQ Headlamp to re-anchor the boat in the dark. It saved our lives. |

| I LOOOVE this headlamp!!! God knows I've gone through far too many, and have leaned towards Petzl lamps most of the time, but this one has changed my mind! It's WONDERFUL! The light switch was a little confusing at first, but worth getting used to! The various settings make it GREAT for hiking/walking and reading in your tent at night. Fits well. Works GREAT. A gooood buy! (even if you aren't a camper... these are MUCH more fun to use in a power outage!! lol) ;D |

| I had to return my headlamp to Black Diamond after using it once.. Black Diamond sent me back a brand new one extremely fast. I give them FIVE STARS on customer service, and the headlamp is just perfect. Must have just gotten a bad one. Black Diamond answered my email in minutes. They rock!! |

| Not too good. It turns itself back on after I have it off and set it back down. The bigger of the two lights did not work when I needed it the most. I will say however that Black Diamond responded within minutes of my first email and it is currently on it's way to their office in Salt Lake. Maybe a bad one out of the box. Jay |

| I train for marathons. Much of my running is done before daylight along unlit county roads. This lamp works well over a cap, with or without a hood, even in heavy fog, heavy rain, and sub-20-degree temps. Nothing but praise so far. |

| This headlamp was recommended by a friend who had one, and I’m so glad that I went with that recommendation. It fits so comfortably with it’s back of the head battery pack, I don’t know why I was staying super light before. I took this one out for an all night hike along some pretty sketchy terrain, and I was so happy with the brightness of this light, and of course, I love to be hands free. I barely used the center beam- which is great for distance. My buddies were pretty jealous, with their dim little Petzls and hand held flashlights. Heh, maybe I should've bought two. |

what is a display name?

| The light works very well. I am very happy with it's performance. The new high performance l.e.d. light is a great improvement in l.e.d. technology. Throws a surprisingly good beam compared to my other l.e.d. lights. The small thumb operated on/off button on the pivot housing works very well but is not easy to use with gloves. |

| I bought this headlamp for running and walking after dark. I am very pleased with its performance. The lower setting works well when there is some ambient light, such as widely spaced street lamps, buildings, etc. The higher setting works great in very dark areas, of which there are many in this locale.It allows me to see hazards such as ice patches and pot holes; makes running in the dark much safer. |

| Recently got this as a gift...used the lamp twice now. Works wonders, the hyperbright LED is really crisp and clean, not yellow tinged like most standard flashlights. I used it canoeing for hours and sitting around the camp fire and havent seen the lamp brightness dull a bit! Easy to use and stays in place atop my cranium, highly suggest this lamp to anyone looking for one. I promise you will be impressed with the quality of light and functionality! |
