Tasty? It works and it works well. It does everything as advertised. I do have to say that I found myself in a nighttime 5K in the pitch black of night and it got me through the race, but I did find myself wanting a brighter more powerful headlamp for those conditions. And it certainly looks like Cyclops offers headlamps with more lumens. The reality is I had no clue how many lumens mattered. So in this case, for trail running at dusk or road running with some street lights around, where I needed just a little more light this was perfect. For times I found myself standing in the pitch black of night, I would recommend something with a lot more lumens, 10 was just not enough.
