I have owned the 2016 Spot and now the 2017 version; looks and weighs exactly the same. Huge difference is it went from 200 to 300 Lumens, and also have the memory function, where it doesnt revert to full power. You might love it or hate it. Either way, I'm keeping both models. Thank you Black Diamond!!!,
Solid and depndable

I use this light for a backup light underground for work and personal trips. I spend a huge amount of time underground in harsh conditions and have used this light in 90 degree 100% humidity conditions in lava tubes in the Pacific to freezing cold mines in the San Juans of CO to hot, dry and dusty mines in Death Valley, CA. They work dependably and with a range of light settings and a red light, are perfectly suited for a whole range of applications. I've also used the Spot for multiday backp...acks, kayak trips, and as a primary light underground. It works and works well.
