The Greatest Headlamp Ever?

Gear & Beer: Outdoor Equipment & Beverage Reviews

How many headlamps have you owned that you actually remember? For a super fun and functional piece of outdoor gear, the headlamp has been largely unremarkable... until now!

Today on Gear & Beer, Justin and Colin talk all about the voice controlled Coast RL35R headlamp!

They discuss their personal experiences with headlamps and emphasize how this particular model stands out not just for its functionality but also for its convenience during outdoor activities.

The conversation touches on the practicality of using voice commands to switch the light on and off, making it a game-changer for nighttime adventures. Alongside their gear discussion, the hosts also share their opinions on the importance of branding and naming in the outdoor industry, noting how product names can impact consumer perception. In short: outdoor brands largely need to do a better job naming their stuff!

And because you can't have Gear without the Beer, will Colin finally stump the Cicerone with the beer he brought to today's episode? Listen to find out!
