The Black Diamond Revolt is a powerful, versatile and rechargeable headlamp that has now been fully redesigned to be completely waterproof, making it adaptable for any nighttime mission. With 300 lumens of power, the Revolt easily spots anchors while you rappel in the dark, proximity lighting gives you a large area of light for hiking down the trail and Programmable Brightness Memory gives you the option to set the light’s brightness when first turned on. A three-level power meter keeps you from ever being surprised by dead batteries, and the Revolt can run on standard AAA batteries in addition to the included rechargeable batteries.

I hear the battery life is better with standard alkaline batteries, but then…
Yes, “YOU CAN” use other rechargables that are not Black Diamonds Let me say first that I love the lamp and the various modes and intensities you have to choose from.

Also I have a solar charger so I like the idea of being able to top off my batteries on my…
