BioLite has been an innovator in off-grid energy solutions since 2008, manufacturing products from electricity generating wood camp stoves to solar lighting and now they are offering their second model in the headlamp category, the BioLite HeadLamp 200. It is a light weight, ultra-thin USB rechargeable light that was designed with the objective of “fitting so well, you forget you’re wearing it.”
The Biolite HeadLamp 200 features a single integrated rechargeable battery and multi-functional light. It is a reliable adventure kit essential that provides up to 200 lumens of light, has 4 separate light options (White Spot and Dimming, White Strobe, Red Flood and Dimming, Red Strobe), water-resistant IPX4 performance, a fully downward adjustable light, and up to 40 hours of run-time on Low and up to 3 hours on High.
Biolite Headlmap 200 Fit
The Biolite HeadLamp 200 incorporates three core attributes that provide for an incredible fit – it has a wide headband flush front, it is lightweight, and has smart fabrics. The Headlamp 200 is built with Biolite’s proprietary 3D SlimFit Construction, which delivers zero bounce and a totally optimized fit. The moisture wicking fabrics in the headband keep everything cool and dry when exertion levels increase, while at the same time protecting the electronics from sweat. Thanks to the lightweight build of only 50 grams, the wide headband and low profile housing, it achieves that barely there weightless feel that is the pinnacle of any headlamp fitting.

Final Thoughts on the Biolite Headlamp 200
Biolite takes a lot of the design features that made their 330 lumen headlamp a runaway success, and offer it in a more affordable package, yes with fewer lumens, but at over a 25% weight reduction. The no bounce fit, ultra lightweight feel, intuitive controls, and USB rechargeability make the price tag worth every penny. The Biolite HeadLamp 200 is ideal for anyone looking to stash away a light source in their hiking kit, trail running pack, vehicle, or anywhere space proves to be tight!
