About Blackburn Outpost Bike & Camp Light
Bike packers rejoice! Finally, a bike light, head lamp, and camp lantern all rolled into one versatile package.

Whether you are making coffee in camp before dawn, or fixing a flat late at night, it's helpful to have your hands free with a light focused on your work. Blackburn developed the Outpost Bike & Camp headlamp with that specific need in mind. Additionally, they installed a silicone "lampshade" over the light source that can allow you to bring the light down to a soft ambient glow, should the mood strike you. On or off the bike, in or out of camp, this light is meant to provide you with the extra versatility you need to focus on the task at hand, by getting up to 400 lumens of light out of your hands, and onto your forehead.

Features
Hands-Free Illumination: Nothing is worse than having your hands full with a light when you are trying to fix a roadside flat or a late-night cup of cocoa. The Outpost Bike & Camp light smartly solves this problem by employing a retractable retention cable to get the light on your head, so you can focus on the task at hand.

Mounts to Bike or Head: The unmatched versatility of the Bike & Camp Light allows you choose where you want the light. This light can mount to your bars, clip to the outside of your bags, or attach to your head to give you a variety of choices for where your light comes from.

Silicone Light Shade: Soften the light emitting from the lamp for quieter times around camp by sliding down the shade. The flexible silicone ring diffuses the focused beam of the Bike & Camp Light to make reading in the tent a pleasure instead of a pain.

Customer Reviews (3.7 / 5 · 3 reviews)

Penelope T. ★★★★☆

I’ve been using this as my main camp light on overnight rides, and the fact that it works as both a headlamp and lantern is really handy. The beam is bright enough to cook by, though the battery life could be a bit longer for multi-day trips.

Lucy N. ★★★★☆

The magnetic clip makes it easy to stick on my tent pole, and the beam is bright enough for making coffee without blinding myself. It’s a solid 3-in-1, though I wish the headlamp strap was a bit more adjustable for my smaller head.

Avery ★★★☆☆

It does the job as a camp light and headlamp combo, and the mounting system is handy for the bike. But the beam is pretty average—fine for making coffee, not great for seeing far on a dark trail, so I’d want a stronger light for real night riding.
