Looks like they jacked up the lumens too.
Black diamond spot 300 review.
Having just reviewed the black diamond revolt it s clear to me that the spot is basically the revolt minus rechargeable batteries.
Features touch sensitive housing lets you transition between full and dimmed power with the tap of your finger.
Notice how its flood bulb the upper left one is bigger than in the current spot top model.
Black diamond markets the spot with a claim of ipx8 waterproofing meaning it should be good for 30 minutes when fully submerged to a depth 1 meter.

I moved to a black diamond revolt a couple of years ago.
It s a decent.
This ipx8 implies to naive consumers that the spot is a great choice for use underwater or in wet environments where top notch waterproofing is crucial even better apparently then the ipx67.
Though not ultralight the spot is reliable and durable.
I like that new tap technology.
The 300 lumen black diamond spot headlamp is the light to have when you re out with the owls.
The black diamond spot is a classic powerful headlamp from an industry leader.
I knew i would be running in the dark for many hours and i had a slight concern with the battery life of my petzl tikka review.
The black diamond storm 375 is a burly option according to the company because of its ipx7 rating.
Its weight and size appeared unchanged as does its single control button unfortunately.
Almost identical to the older spot when it was 130 lumens more than enough for night hiking except the batteries are rechargeable.
The new black diamond spot headlamp will produce 300 lumens which is a 50 percent increase over the current version read my review.
Whether you re cooking supper after a long day on the trail or locating anchors during an after dark rappelling epic this compact super bright headlamp features multiple modes that are customizable to any lighting situation.
On midweek dawn patrol or overnight trail runs the waterproof black diamond spot headlamp casts 300 lumens and offers on the fly brightness adjustments in any weather.
As i packed for my 50 mile race last weekend i started thinking about my headlamp.
The spot is rock solid.
The spot puts form with function for a sleek headlamp.
