Lumens sell the lamp; the regulated runtime is what you use · review
The largest battery published on this shelf at 2400 mAh and the only lamp here with separate proximity and distance settings — with no runtime, no beam distance and no ingress code behind them.
A 500 lumen rechargeable headlamp with dimming and a red mode.
Black Diamond states up to 500 lumens for maximum visibility; an integrated 2400 mAh lithium-ion battery charged over micro-USB, eliminating disposable cells; a durable housing that withstands heavy rain, snow and challenging environments; full strength, dimming, strobe and red night-vision modes, with proximity and distance settings for campsite tasks, technical climbs or trail navigation; and a compact low-profile construction with an adjustable headband that stays stable during active use.
No runtime. No beam distance. No IP code. No weight. No standard quoted.
2400 mAh, against 1500 for the next.
Seventeen lamps sit on this shelf. This is the biggest capacity published among them, by 60 per cent.
It is also the only figure here from which anything can be reasoned, because no runtime is published at any setting.
Two beam patterns, not two brightnesses.
A wide flood for a map, a stove or a knot. A narrowed throw for a trail or a pitch.
This shelf’s introduction says two lamps with identical specification sheets can behave completely differently. Beam pattern is one of the reasons, and this is the one listing in this group that addresses it.
Neither pattern gets a meter figure.
A claim where the shelf wants a measurement.
Six of the eight American lamps here publish IPX4 or IPX5.
This page publishes a sentence about rain, snow and challenging environments. The introduction above lists the IP rating among the practical fittings precisely so that sentences like that one can be checked, and here there is nothing to check it against.
The American Amazon store was listing it at about $74 at the time of writing.

| Stated lumens | Up to 500 lm — stated. Below the 2000 and 18,000 lumen claims on the European side of this shelf and above every other American listing here except the Ruirgo, whose own figure contradicts itself |
|---|---|
| Beam distance | Not published. Proximity and distance settings are named without a meter figure for either |
| Runtime | Not published at any setting — on the most expensive lamp on this shelf and the one with the largest battery. This shelf's buying tip asks for a middle-setting figure; this page gives none at all |
| Standard quoted | Not published — no measurement convention is named, although this is the one brand on this shelf that publishes to ANSI/PLATO FL1 on its own website. On this listing the convention does not appear |
| Regulated output | Not published. Full strength and dimming are both stated, and whether the dimmed levels hold is not |
| Battery type | An integrated 2400 mAh lithium-ion pack charged over micro-USB — the largest capacity published on this shelf, where the next is 1500 mAh. Not AAA-compatible, and micro-USB rather than USB-C |
| IP rating | Not published. The listing states that the lamp withstands heavy rain, snow and challenging environments, with no IP code behind the claim. Six of the eight American listings on this shelf publish a code |
| Weight | Not published on the listing. The only figure available is a parcel weight |
| Lock mode | Not published. Four modes are named — full strength, dimming, strobe and red — with no travel lock among them |
| Red mode | A red night-vision mode — stated, and named as night-vision rather than as a color, which is the use this shelf's introduction describes |
| Amazon reference | B0GT6LRNP7 |
| EAN | 0793661752929 |
That is the gap, and it is the largest on this shelf relative to price. What is published is the pack — 2400 mAh, the biggest capacity among the seventeen lamps here — and four modes, and no hours against any of them. This shelf's buying tip asks for the middle-setting figure, this shelf's introduction explains that a runtime is only meaningful once you know whether output is regulated, and this listing provides neither half. The capacity at least lets you reason: 2400 mAh is 60 per cent more than the largest other pack in this group, so on the same dimmed setting it should last proportionately longer.
They are two beam patterns rather than two brightnesses: a wide flood for work at arm’s length — a map, a stove, a knot — and a narrowed throw for seeing down a trail or up a pitch. No other lamp in this group separates them, and this shelf's introduction makes the point that two lamps with identical specification sheets behave differently in use; a beam pattern is one of the reasons. What the listing will not tell you is how far the distance setting reaches, because no meter figure appears for either.
The listing says it withstands heavy rain, snow and challenging environments, and publishes no IP code to put behind that. Six of the eight American lamps on this shelf publish one — IPX4 or IPX5, which is splash resistance from any angle with no separate dust test. A claim without a code is not comparable with a code, and this shelf's introduction lists the IP rating among the practical fittings for exactly that reason. Treat the sentence as a description of intent rather than a measurement.
Close prices, same category: comparable camping gear. We keep only the specifications all of them publish, because a column with gaps compares nothing.
| Model | Price | Stated lumens | Beam distance | Runtime | Standard quoted |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Black Diamond Storm 500-R | $74 | Up to 500 lm — stated. Below the 2000 and 18,000 lumen claims on the European side of this shelf and above every other American listing here except the Ruirgo, whose own figure contradicts itself | Not published. Proximity and distance settings are named without a meter figure for either | Not published at any setting — on the most expensive lamp on this shelf and the one with the largest battery. This shelf's buying tip asks for a middle-setting figure; this page gives none at all | Not published — no measurement convention is named, although this is the one brand on this shelf that publishes to ANSI/PLATO FL1 on its own website. On this listing the convention does not appear |
| Ruirgo 005 | $33 | Published twice, and the two do not agree: 4000Lumen in the title, and an upgraded version of 3000 lumens high brightness LED chip in the first bullet. Neither figure carries a runtime or a beam distance | Not published. Only the two Energizer listings in this group publish a meter figure | Not published at any setting. A built-in high-capacity battery is stated with a battery indicator screen and the ability to run while charging, and no hours appear anywhere | Not published — no measurement convention is named. No listing on this shelf quotes ANSI/PLATO FL1 |
| EverBrite E001018 | $22 | Up to 300 lm on high and 150 lm on medium — both stated, and each tied to its own runtime. Modest against the 2000 and 18,000 lumen claims on the European side of this shelf, and the only pair of figures here where lumens and hours are published together | Not published. Only the two Energizer listings in this group publish a meter figure | Up to 4 hours at 300 lm on high, and up to 10 hours at 150 lm on medium — both stated with the mode and the output attached. It is the only middle-setting runtime published on this shelf, which is precisely what this shelf's buying tip asks for | Not published — no measurement convention is named, so the 4 and 10 hours are not ANSI/PLATO FL1 figures. No listing on this shelf quotes that convention |
| LHKNL TG-T069 | $20 | Not published. The listing claims class-leading LED chips providing 2X brighter high lumens, which is a comparison without a number. Two of the eight American listings on this shelf publish no lumen figure at all | Not published. The lamp is stated to light up an entire tent and road, with no meter figure | 4 to 10 hours from a full charge — stated as a span with no mode attached to either end, so neither the 4 nor the 10 can be matched to a setting. This shelf's buying tip asks for the middle setting, and this page does not name one | Not published — no measurement convention is named. No listing on this shelf quotes ANSI/PLATO FL1, which is the convention this shelf's introduction is built on |
A climber or trail runner who wants a dimmable regulated-feel beam and will accept a bare specification sheet
Amazon reports what buyers took in the month before this page was last checked: at least 900.
The figure is a floor, rounded by Amazon, and read through Keepa — it says what buyers picked, not what a maker claims.
