BioLite 800 |
Hello and happy almost Spring! Not sure about where you are, but here in Colorado, we've had a few really nice warm sunny days, which hint at a departure from winter, but we aren't quite there.
That being said, while the days are getting longer, there is still plenty of dark out there in the evenings and mornings, so it's always great to have a dependable headlamp. Also, stick around through this review and get rewarded with a chance to win an awesome one!

Which of course brings me to one of my favorite companies, BioLite! If you recall from past posts, I've had the great opportunity to test and review a variety of products from them, including the Headlamp 330/750, the Alpenglow 250 lamp, and the Charge 40 PD Powerbank. All fantastic products!

Also, a great friend of mine has the SolarHome 620+ system in his off-grid cabin that a group of us spend at least two long weekends at each year. Such an awesome system that provides plenty of light for poker playing late into the evening :-)

Ok, lets kick it off with a look at the Headlamp 325. This headlamp is the latest model of what was the 330 in its first iteration. Below are the specs on this headlamp, followed by a few pics, and then I'll give you the low down on how it compares to the original 330.
Specs:
- Weighs only 50g
- Max Output: 325 lumens
- White + Dim , Red + Dim, White Strobe, Red Strobe
- Front panel tilts downward with one hand
- 40 hours on LO, 3 hours on HIGH
- Recharge via micro USB
- Backed by the HolyFit Guarantee (try it for 30 days, and a full refund if not happy!)
This has to be one of the lightest headlamps I've tried, considering the punch it packs in a small package. And so comfortable. I really like the enhancements and updates on this version over the 330. Speaking of which, lets take a look at what those differences are:
