Will this work for running at night? Will it stay steady on your head?

I believe it may work if extremely tight. But you may want to find one less top heavy/lighter weight.

Glenn- I use the "Black Diamond Sprinter Headlamp" which has a blinking red light on the back for extra safety. It is also rechargeable so you don't have to worry about batteries. The head lamp is very bright, brighter than most battery operated Headlamps. I also use a some of the Lighter Petzl models when I'm away from home or if I don't won't to take a recharging Headlamp. Both Petzl and Black Diamond use rechargeable battery packs and AAA batteries. About the the only thing that goes bad is the head band. after about 6 to 8 months of constant use the head band is almost fully stretched out. Replacements are not expensive so order a couple for backup.

Yes, it's good for night running. I just wish the whole lamp thing were flatter and stayed closer to my forehead because, yes, it does bounce around a little. bit.

I wouldn't wear this during intense athletic activities. I don't think it would stay on your head while running.

Yes, it fits well over a helmet. I never wore it at night, but I imagine it would work because the lens kind of intensifies light, but in a gentle way (if that makes sense!) They're great in the day light.

It seems to stay cold all night. It warms up in the spot your head is then when you move it cools down again. Hope that helps.

I wouldn't suggest it. I would go with a viser headlamp. This would bounce too much for running as it sticks out a bit

Yes, it stays up well while running. But after using it for many times, I think it will loosen up somehow.

I would say that it depends. It does not fit over the ears so if you have a small head it would probably shift. To be honest, never really planned to go running or moving around that much with them. If you have a smooth gate and did not sweat profusely you might get away with it..

I'm not sure because i've online used it at night! But I don't believe it works well for that.

Not a bad fit, can get stretched if you wear a winter cap, OK with glasses. Would consider a light with a front to back head strap if you are a competitive runner

I recommend the Energizer Micro Sport for running: Energizer Micro Sport LED Headlamp, BlueThe Micro Sport has a flat profile that prevents excessive bouncing and also comes with a rear "see me" red flasher so you can avoid getting hit by cars, bikers, and whatnot. Enjoy!

I'm not sure, but I did find that if I adjusted the position of the back part, it worked better. For me it's at the base of my skull. You might be able to find relief by experimentation. It would at least keep you in the dark, which is better for sleep. Sorry I couldn'y be more help.

Yes it does stay up for me. But I prefer to wear it around my neck or head to cover my ears but does work well for covering your nose and mouth area.

I haven't run with it, but it has a hat clip that looks as if it would secure firmly. I would guess that the headband would also accommodate as the unit is quite light.

I've dont know cause I'm not really looking at it while running or can see what a car sees....I use Nike+ running app and the phone stays lit up the whole time running, so thats a light? sorry! I run early mornings so I have a head light and other lights and a reflective hat.

Tiffany, I recently wore it while sailing on a hobie cat. It stayed secure and is adjustable. I am an adult with average size head. Don't think it would be secure on a small head/child's head.

It doesn't go off all the way. I was worried about this when I bought it as I like to sleep in the dark, but it hasn't been an issue for me.

Actually, I found t-shirt clip on eBay and use it to hold it in place while I am boxing. I am pretty sure same will work for runners too. So these can be used by runners if you find a way to fixate remote on your clothes somehow.
