Diablo MK 3 Headlamp Option

Check out the Diablo MK3 and the optional headband. Below is a quick review from one of our cycling athletes, Kevin Day.

Just when I though my Dia­blo MK. 3 couldn’t get any bet­ter, it did. Or at least the optional acces­sories. For those of us who spend a fair amount of time in the dark, here’s an way to brighten up the aver­age head­lamp or cause the crit­ters in the wild to go blind.

I can’t tell you how nice it’s been to do a lit­tle trail run­ning with 975 lumens beam­ing from my head. In the past, I’ve depended on a few great options from Petzl, for trail running. They’re a bit lighter in weight but no where near the light out­put. Strap­ping the Dia­blo MK. 3 will put an entirely new spin on trail run­ning, alpine tour­ing and xc ski­ing this sea­son. 


The MK 3 has been one of the most versital lights I've ever owned. Because it's so small in size and very light weight, it's super easy to pack along as a backup if you're already running a Max D, Six Pack, or Toro. It's been on every camping trip since I got it and is always available in emergency situations.
