GoMotion LiteVests

How would this compare to running with just a headlamp? Is it worth it to have the lamp and vest integrated?

Dylan — This was a “new product” post, not a review. We are currently testing these. Back soon with some thoughts. . .

Just checking to see if you all had any thoughts on this yet? Thanks!

As for this vest I’ve been running with it at night for a couple of weeks now. I already had two headlamps but wouldn’t run with them because of the weight, and I needed something with some storage for small items. Illumination is adequate. I’m still observing battery life for when it’s used for 20 to 25 minutes, three times per week. My complaint lies in the direction of how the straps are adjusted. The loose ends are tightened by pulling inwards, towards one’s body, with inadequate means of securing the loose ends. The end of the sternum strap tends to block the light unless you get creative in tying-down that loose end. The ends of the shoulder straps could use a hook-&-loop tie down to prevent them from flapping around and hitting ones hands and arms, otherwise it’s very annoying.
For this price they could have taken a cue from the CamelBak folks seeing how their loose straps are secured, especially the military models.
