Black Diamond Sprint 225 Headlamp
A LIGHT THAT EASILY FITS INTO THE POCKET OF YOUR RUNNING SHORTS OR VEST AND IS VIRTUALLY UNNOTICEABLE ON YOUR HEAD
With 225 lumens on the maximum setting and an average 2.5 hours of burn time, the lithium-ion battery is rechargeable via USB, and the light’s stormproof IPX4 rating protects against rain and sleet from any angle. In addition, the Sprint 225 utilises our updated optical efficiency, which provides brighter light with more peak intensity. You can now easily track battery life with a six-setting, three-LED battery meter. The Brightness Memory feature allows you to turn the light on and off at a chosen brightness without reverting back to the default setting, and the Sprint 225’s PowerTap™ Technology allows for instant brightness adjustment with the tap of your finger. Finally, the light’s vari-width headband is lightweight, packable, and stays comfortably in place on high-output runs.

Reviews
"Impressed by this lightweight head torch so far. Gives sufficient light for winter road running in the UK. Nice that it has different light modes that can easily be changed with a gloved hand. "
"very happy for it, good battery and light"
"I've used this for night hiking and road walking. Easy to use and recharge. I love not replacing packaged batteries. Battery usage seems to match their suggestions of 4 hrs at medium light" -
WHAT WE THINK
The Black Diamond Sprint 225 Headlamp is a great little headlamp for when you don’t need anything too heavy-duty but still want something that packs a punch.
It’s not a powerhouse like some of the high-end models, but for short-distance light or close-up tasks, it’s great. It’s super compact, and that’s what we love—if you’re looking to save weight for ultralight activities, this headlamp is a no-brainer.
The battery life is decent but not extraordinary, especially at higher brightness settings. We've found it’s best to keep it on the lower setting when you can. The single-button control makes it super user-friendly, and you don’t have to waste time fiddling with settings. It’s simple, no-nonsense lighting. -
