The Deploy 325 Headlamp is a lightweight, comfortable headlamp with a bright beam that is perfect for runners who do local/shorter training runs in the evening.
Black Diamond says:
The Deploy is the ideal headlamp to stash in a pocket for late-in-the-day runs or pre-work training missions. Its 300-lumen output and variable angle lens design provide plenty of light and adjusts with the push of a button, whether you’re running up a steep trail or down a city street. With a quick-charging battery that uses a USB-C cable, the Deploy is ready to go at a moment's notice. Its sleek shape fits below the brim of a hat, while light foam padding and a flexible wing band provide stable, bounce-free comfort.
Our Verdict
The Deploy 325 Headlamp is a lightweight, incredibly low-profile runner’s head torch with an impressive 325 lumens output. It can only be used at this level for around two and a half hours, but its 180 lumens output will last around 4 hours. It is important to note that this is a runner head torch, and it has not been designed for the hiker, especially not the thru-hiker. You can't take out the battery, it has no red light setting, and its reasonably short burn time makes it impractical for trail life.
However, this is an excellent choice if you are a runner who does local training runs in the evening. The Deploy 325 Headlamp is very low in weight, charges incredibly quickly, and there is an indicator on the headtorch to inform you of what battery life is left. It's comfortable to have on for prolonged periods, and the reflective band makes you visible 360 degrees.
Overall, the Deploy 325 Headlamp is an excellent option for runners looking for a lightweight, comfortable headtorch with a bright beam.
