Yes, I bought Black Crystal Cosmo which suit to my budget and my friend borrow me a bicycle light (300 lumen) as back up.

Thank you for the offer, I missed it. ohmy.gif

I have another question about the sunblock, I did use Banana Boat brand sunblock for outdoor activities. But I feel oily and sticky after long hours at outside, any recommendation? Thank you.

actually you need to put in the considerations of the battery life as well .

looking at the both headlights specs i feel that Black Diamond Cosmo can give you a long hour usage compared to Fenix HL15 as fenix only holds 2 x AAA battery while Cosmo needs 3 x AAA which more lasting usage.
Anyhow be ready more battery as you may start at early as 3:45am so running in the dark most likely will kill alot of battery tho.

Many variables: -

a) Depends on the capacity (mAh) of batteries

b) Depends on type of LED headlamp

c) Depends on mode (two LED, three LED)


P = V * I

where power = P (two or three LED power) , voltage = V (three AAA batteries is 1.5V x 3 = 4.5) , I = current

Calculate the current (I) from the above., say 200mA

Use the battery capacity mAh (say 2000mAh) divided by the mA (200mA), you will get the hour (h) , which is 10 hour.


Some instruction manual did provide estimated battery usage, pls check each manufacturer specification.



Edit: To add on, some LED headlight do have intensity adjustable by holding button for example, lower the LED intensity aka illumination level (lumens) can prolong the battery life.

Usually I prepare two sets of Energizer alkaline batteries (3 nos. AAA each) for my ReVOLT headlight in running event. Each set can last 8 hours (again depends on the LED mode, I used the highest )

For training, usually I used the provided 2000mAh rechargable batteries which can last 6 hours.

Hi, my tibialis anterior muscle feel pain running with Brooks Ravenna 8, can't run anymore after 3km, and very slow pace 7:41/km
Don't have this issue with my old NB 1080v2
Could it be the Ravenna not suitable for my legs?
Using this shoes for second run only

I have shorten it a lot compared to my previous running, even worse. It's like when stepping on land can feel a lot of pressure. I tried different landing styles also
