The Petzl e+LITE has been on the market for a number of years and is probably the most well known CR2032 headlamp among ultralight hikers, while the Black Diamond Flare has only been around a short time. While both are not very bright and don't have the greatest battery life, they do a job and carrying extra batteries has a minimal weight penalty. Overall, the Petzl is easier to use but the Black Diamond feels more solid and durable. They may not be the best ultralight headlamp for long-distance hikers, but the low weight and compactness is perfect for emergencies, overnighters, shorter trips, and storing in your vehicle.
