Here's what other sites are saying:

From Backcountry Outlet:
"The Zenix Headlamp is the first all-LED headlamp to introduce HyperBright LED technology. These HyperBright LED's are compact, incredibly energy efficient and provide five times more light than traditional LED's. This results in reduced environmental impact because battery changes are less frequent and LED's never need to be replaced. Black Diamond designed the Zenix Headlamp to generate an intense, focused beam of LED light a beam that rivals that of lower-wattage xenon bulbs. This lamp incorporates a lensed HyperBright LED flanked by a SuperBright LEDon each side. A switch allows the user to toggle between the SuperBright LED's for proximity illumination and the lensed HyperBright LED for beam-throwing light. Waterproof to IPX standards and weighing a mere 3.2 ounces, the Zenix sets a new standard in backcountry hands-free lighting."

From Moosejaw:
"The Zenix is the first all-LED headlamp to introduce the new frontier of HyperBright LED technology. This little flamethrower generates an intense, pre-focused beam of light that cuts through the night. The brilliant HyperBright LED offers clear, far-reac"

From Backcountry.com:
"The Black Diamond Zenix takes LED lighting to the next level with HyperBright Technology."

From REI:
"Streamlined and super-bright, Black Diamond's new Zenix features the next evolution in LED lighting! Super-bright LED bulb with focused lens draws more power for an even brighter, far-reaching beam. Power-regulating chip and switch allow you to select from high, super-bright bulb or two power-saving standard LED bulbs. Three-strap retention system secures the light to your head; fits easily over a helmet. Battery cover is attached to strap--no losing parts during a battery change in the dark. Waterproof construction for reliable performance in bad weather. Three AAA batteries included. Closeout."

"I won't go hiking without it. The battery range is outstanding. It does the job, though lacks long range capability. My lamp has taken rain, snow, ice, mud, etc. I've even fallen in a river fully submerged head and all. The lamp kept working. I took a precaution after the trip while moisture was visible and stuck the headlamp in a bag of dry rice, it was fine 24 hours later."

"I always thought that if I paid top price for a piece of equipment that it would perform just the same as for the price.

NOT SO! I've the more that I paid, the more complications came with. Like with any new product you have to research and read the various reviews on that certain item."

"This is an extremely lightweight headlamp that easily adapts to fit your head, hat or helmet. Several modes allow broad, focused or combined beams. This should be considered the leading headlamp for lightweight hiking, camping and climbing. As with as all LED lamps, this lamp suffers in long range illumination so should not be considered if that is an important requirement."
