HA29 UHE 1200 Lumens TrueVision+ Optics - Nitecore Singapore

Reach, peripheral coverage, and clarity for serious work in the dark.

MAXIMUM REACH - 1,200 lumens hits 170 metres. Spot the cairn ahead on a foggy ridge, scan a scree slope above a pre-dawn alpine start, or identify route markers at distance before you commit.

WIDE PERIPHERAL COVERAGE - A 41mm light-emitting surface with TrueVision+ unibody optics produces over 100° of flood beam. Your footing, your route, and what's around you all stay lit at once.

94% LIGHT TRANSMISSION - More than 94% of the lumens generated by the LEDs reach the field through the unibody multi-faceted lens. Less waste between the diode and the trail.


HA29 UHE MCT LED 6 Dual-Core Patent Pending - Nitecore Singapore

Six dual-core LEDs. Three colour temperatures. One headlamp.

MCT UHE LED SYSTEM (PATENT PENDING)

Each of the six emitters carries a high-CRI core and a high-efficiency core. Switching colour temperature switches which cores fire, so you can choose accuracy or efficiency depending on the terrain and weather ahead.

6500K COOL WHITE

Long throw, maximum efficiency, longest runtime. The setting for routine trail use, urban night running, and camp.

4500K NEUTRAL WHITE

Balanced colour rendering and brightness. The all-rounder for stream crossings, muddy descents, snow-covered trails, and mixed technical terrain.

3000K WARM LIGHT

Cuts through rain, fog, and snowfall with reduced back-scatter into your eyes. The setting for high-altitude approaches, whiteouts, and any time visibility gets ugly.


HA29 UHE CRI 98 85 73 in Mountain Snow Forest - Nitecore Singapore

Three CRI options matched to three real environments.

The HA29 UHE adapts to the conditions in front of you, not the other way round.

In high-risk environments where rock textures and ice fractures need to read accurately, CRI 98 gives you the clearest visual perception. Critical for placing protection, judging anchor quality, and reading mountain weather signs.

In medium-risk technical terrain like steep slopes and snow-covered trails, CRI 85 balances accuracy with the brighter, more efficient output you need to cover ground.

In low-risk, predictable conditions like camp, easy trails, and urban night running, CRI 73 delivers the brightest and longest-running light from the same headlamp body.


FOUR REASONS THE HA29 UHE EARNS ITS PLACE IN YOUR KIT

All-Weather, Lab-Verified

Tested across temperature and pressure extremes, not just rated as "weatherproof". The included battery pack retains the majority of its capacity in extreme cold, where most lithium cells collapse.

Multi-Colour Light Source

Multi-colour output from a single light source. One headlamp adapts to fog, snowfall, mixed terrain, or routine trail. The same body covers every condition.

Multi-Source Power

Multiple battery options share a single body: the included rechargeable pack, a smaller rechargeable pack, or off-the-shelf AAA cells. Field redundancy for long expeditions and emergencies.

Active Thermal Management

A magnesium alloy heat sink and air ducts between the body and battery case keep brightness stable on high output. Run high modes longer before any step-down kicks in.


HA29 UHE Defy Extreme Cold -40C Battery Performance - Nitecore Singapore

Continuous power down to -40°C.

Most lithium batteries are unusable or have lost 90% of their capacity by -40°C. The included battery pack holds at least 80% of its 2,500mAh capacity at the same temperature, verified by NITECORE Lab.

That means you keep your headlamp working when summit-day temperatures collapse, when you're crossing a glacier before sunrise, or when you've stopped moving and the cold starts to bite.

At ambient temperatures between -40°C and -30°C, the HIGH setting maintains approximately 400 lumens. Plenty of light to keep moving, route-find, and stay safe.

Note: TURBO is unavailable when the ambient temperature drops to -10°C or below. This is by design to protect the battery and electronics.


HA29 UHE Stable Performance at 10000m Altitude Mountaineer - Nitecore Singapore

Stable output at 10,000m altitude.

The included battery pack was reliability-tested at 11.6 kPa low pressure, simulating an altitude of approximately 15,000m, well above the rated 10,000m use ceiling.

The pay-off: stable power delivery on every Earth summit. Climbers on Everest, Cho Oyu, K2, or any 8000-metre peak get the same light output as climbers at base camp. No lumen drop as the air thins.

The same headroom matters at lower altitudes too. Trekkers in the Himalayas, Andes, Alps, or any peak above 4,000m get consistent output instead of the dimming that affects standard lithium cells in low-pressure environments.


HA29 UHE IPX8 Waterproof in Rain - Nitecore Singapore

IPX8 waterproof and 1m impact resistance.

IPX8 WITH THE INCLUDED PACK FITTED DIRECTLY

Sudden downpour at altitude, a stream crossing where you lose footing, a tent that leaks in the night. The HA29 UHE with the included pack fitted handles all of it. Continuous submersion-rated per the IEC 60529 standard.

IPX6 WITH THE MBC10 BATTERY CASE

When running on the HLB1500 or AAA cells through the MBC10 case, the rating shifts to IPX6 (powerful water jets from any direction). Still field-rugged, just not submersible.

1M IMPACT RESISTANCE

The special PC plastic body holds up to drops from waist height onto rock, ice, or trail. The kind of accidental knock when it slips off a pack or tent loop, off your head while you bend over to lace up boots, or off a hut bunk in the night.


HA29 UHE Modular Power System HLB1500 AAA Battery Case - Nitecore Singapore

Three battery options. One body.

The detachable modular power system is what makes the HA29 UHE genuinely expedition-ready. You choose the battery for the mission.

HLB2500 LI-ION PACK (INCLUDED)

2,500mAh, 3.8V. All-weather operation. USB-C rechargeable in approximately 2 hours 20 minutes from a 5V/2A adapter. Standby holds for around 12 months at full charge. Mounts directly into the headlamp body and unlocks the IPX8 rating plus access to the full output range.

HLB1500 LI-ION PACK (SOLD SEPARATELY)

1,500mAh, 3.9V. Lighter and more compact, fits in the included MBC10 battery case. USB-C rechargeable. A solid backup pack or weight-saver for shorter outings.

3 X AAA BATTERIES (VIA MBC10 CASE)

Alkaline or rechargeable Ni-MH. Available in any village store, mountain hut, gas station, or convenience shop on Earth. Your fallback when rechargeable options run dry on a long expedition.


HA29 UHE One Battery Twilight to Dawn Lumen Graph - Nitecore Singapore

One battery. Twilight to dawn.

The included battery pack delivers 17 hours 30 minutes of continuous illumination at the 100-lumen LOW setting. That covers the full 14-hour twilight-to-dawn window with a margin of more than 3 hours.

For conservation: Ultralow gives you 8 lumens for 122 hours straight. Five days of around-the-clock low-level light for tent reading, navigating to the toilet at 2am, or basic camp tasks without disturbing your tent-mate.

For high-output work: 4h 15min on HIGH (600 lumens, 119m throw) or 8h 45min on MID (300 lumens, 82m throw). Plan your light budget the same way you plan your food and water.


HA29 UHE 112g Featherlight Design - Nitecore Singapore

112 grams. Everything included.

Total weight with the included pack, mounting bracket, and headband fitted: 112g (3.95 oz).

Flagship-level output in a body that disappears on your head.

Switch to the smaller pack option and the complete setup drops to 103g. Pull the battery for storage or transport and you're down to 76g for the headlamp, case, bracket and headband.

Where every gram on your headtorch matters: multi-day fastpacking, ultralight alpine routes, big-wall climbing, or any setup where you'd otherwise leave a headlamp at home to save weight.


HA29 UHE Magnesium Alloy Heat Sink Air Ducts - Nitecore Singapore

Magnesium alloy heat sink and active air ducts.

High-output LEDs produce real heat. How a headlamp handles that heat determines whether your 1,200-lumen rating is a brief burst or a sustained output.

The HA29 UHE uses a die-cast magnesium alloy heat sink that's both lighter and more thermally conductive than aluminium. Heat moves from the LED matrix into the heat sink and out through air ducts between the lamp head and the detachable battery case.

Practical result: output stays stable for longer on TURBO and HIGH, and the body stays comfortable on your forehead instead of running hot. Thermal protection kicks in only when truly needed, keeping the LEDs and battery healthy over the long haul.


HA29 UHE Dual Button MODE Power Lockout - Nitecore Singapore

Dual-button interface designed for gloves and one-handed use.

Two buttons, shaped and textured differently so you can tell them apart by feel. MODE switches colour temperature; the Power button handles on/off and brightness levels.

POWER INDICATION

A short press of MODE while the light is off lights up four indicators showing remaining capacity: 100%, 75%, 50%, or 25%. Know exactly where you stand three hours into a night descent.

LOCKOUT MODE

Long-press both buttons for 2 seconds and the headlamp flashes 3 times to confirm lockout. Drop it in your pack with confidence. Long-press both buttons again to unlock. Lockout automatically clears 15 seconds after a battery swap.


HA29 UHE Reflective Breathable Headband Mountaineer - Nitecore Singapore

A headband that earns its place on your head all night.

Reflective weave on the outer face boosts visibility when someone shines a torch your way. Useful on a busy alpine route, in camp, or on a roadside.

Hollow open-weave construction lets air move through the band, so it stays comfortable across long sessions and warmer climates. The structure also wicks sweat away from your forehead during high-output efforts.

Snug, stable fit that holds on rough terrain, scrambling moves, and ducking branches on a fast descent. Easy to size with one hand, and gloves-friendly.


HA29 UHE Multipurpose Clip Cap Brim Backpack Strap - Nitecore Singapore

Four-way multipurpose clip included.

Pull the headlamp off the band and snap it onto the included clip. Now it works on:

CAP BRIM - Light points where you're looking with zero head-band pressure. Ideal for long pre-dawn pushes when you don't want anything tight on your temples.

BACKPACK STRAP - Chest-mounted angle for hands-free task light when you're rigging gear, fixing kit at a belay, or working over a stove.

POCKET, BELT, OR GEAR LOOP - Quick stash with the beam pointed away while you're moving between tasks.

One headlamp, four sensible places to put it.


HA29 UHE Diffusing Stuff Sack Camping Lantern in Tent - Nitecore Singapore

The stuff sack doubles as a tent lantern.

The included Diffusing Stuff Sack is two things at once. During the day it stores and protects the headlamp in your pack. At night, slip the headlamp inside, switch to Ultralow or LOW, and the sack diffuses the beam into soft ambient light.

Hang it from your tent ridge with a cord or carabiner and you've got a 100-lumen lantern that runs for 17 hours, or an 8-lumen night-light that runs for 5 days.

Two pieces of kit doing four jobs: headlamp, chest light, hand torch, and lantern.


HA29 UHE Ultralow Red Light Camp Cave Rescue - Nitecore Singapore

Ultralow and red light: the low-impact end of the range.

ULTRALOW (8 LUMENS, 122 HOURS)

Eye-friendly and just enough to see by. Read in the tent without waking your tent-mate. Move around camp without obliterating your dark-adapted night vision. Five days of continuous runtime if you keep it on the whole time.

RED HIGH (15 LUMENS, 29 HOURS) AND RED LOW (5 LUMENS, 90 HOURS)

Preserves your eyes' dark adaptation, so when you switch back to white light you're not blinded by your own torch. Also reduces moth and mosquito attraction during overnight stops near water or in summer climates.

Plus a red flashing mode for emergency signalling, and SOS/Beacon white-light modes at max output for serious incidents.


BUILT FOR THE GROUND YOU COVER

HA29 UHE Use Cases Mountaineering Snow Sports Trekking Running - Nitecore Singapore
High-Altitude Mountaineering

The included pack holds power above 8,000m where standard cells struggle. Warm-light mode cuts through snow and ice glare on summit-day starts.

Snow Sports & Winter Trekking

Operates through ski-touring dawn starts in deep cold. Light enough to forget you're wearing it, bright enough for night skinning.

Trekking & Multi-Day Hiking

AAA fallback keeps you running on convenience-store cells when rechargeable options run out. Diffuser sack turns it into a tent lantern at camp.

Trail & Ultra Running

Ultralight enough to forget you're wearing it on race night. Wide flood beam keeps your peripheral vision intact at race pace.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Why does the IP rating change depending on which battery I use?

The HLB2500 mounts directly into the body with a sealed interface, giving the IPX8 submersion rating. The MBC10 battery case (housing the HLB1500 or 3 x AAA) is rated IPX6, so the overall rating drops to IPX6 in those configurations.

Both handle heavy rain, snow, and stream splashes. Only the IPX8 configuration is rated for continuous submersion.

Can I activate TURBO mode with AAA batteries?

No. TURBO requires the higher discharge rate of the Li-ion packs (1,200 lumens with HLB2500, 800 lumens with HLB1500). Running on 3 x AAA, the maximum output is HIGH at 600 lumens. TURBO also locks out at ambient temperatures of -10°C and below when using the HLB2500, to protect the cell.

How long does the HLB2500 hold its charge in storage?

Approximately 12 months at full charge. For long-term storage between trips, charge the pack fully before putting it away and top up every 6 to 12 months. Lithium cells degrade faster when stored fully discharged.

Customer photo review of HA25 UHE - 800 lumens

I tried the Nitecore headlamp for a solo night run in a forested park, where there were absolutely no lights. The Nitecore was sublime. The 800 lumens were sufficiently bright, and the throw was far enough to light up my path. The weight was almost not there. I really enjoyed it and am looking for more adventure night runs with my Nitecore. Thank you!

Customer photo review of HA27 UHE (Black) - 800 lumens

Using this headlamp for early morning runs and night trail runs has made a huge difference to my visibility and confidence on the trails. I've always had difficulty running in low-light conditions, but this has helped me see the terrain much more clearly and navigate safely. It's also an excellent piece of gear for trail races that start before sunrise, providing reliable illumination when it matters most. Definitely a worthwhile addition to my running kit.

Customer photo review of HA25 UHE - 800 lumens

Excellent lighting very bright just what i needed

Customer photo review of HA23 UHE (Black) - 600 lumens

Really have been digging this head torch. The quality of it is much better than the cheapo ones I've used in the past. It turns on by holding down the power button for a second. You will have to hold it, because a quick press will not turn it on. Once it is on, you can just click the power button to cycle through the different brightness modes, and there is a "MODE" button that changes the hue of the light. There is a more warm yellow light, a bright white light, and one that is kind of in between. I really like the warmer yellow light, great feature. The light can be angled down quite a bit, which is nice when doing work with your hands while using it. I would definitely buy this again, and just so you all know, there is a rechargeable battery pack for this from Nitecore. It costs about $13, and I think it is worth it, considering disposable batteries don't last too long, so the costs will mount fast if you use this thing much.

Customer photo review of HA23 UHE (Black) - 600 lumens

Works really well when clipped to a cap. Absolutely love it!

Customer photo review of HA23 UHE (Black) - 600 lumens

I needed a headlamp for some work in my very dim basement. So glad I found this one! It comes complete with batteries and everything. Super easy to set up & use. The headband is very comfortable, lightweight and the lamp stays in place so well, I forgot I was wearing it at times! There are multiple brightness & Kelvin color temperature settings, which I personally love because I am sensitive to some color temps. This head lamp is very adjustable to get just right fit, lighting, etc.

Customer photo review of HA23 UHE (Black) - 600 lumens

The minute I took this headlamp out of the box, I had a good feeling it was going to live up to my expectations. And it has. The build quality is as good as I’ve seen in some of the top name brands. And to seal the deal, the wide angle lighting is flat out impressive. From all that I can see, the HA23 UHE model from NITECORE has what it takes to meet the demands of even the most challenging applications. Here’s a few ✅ The head band has been detailed with premium features, making it an important component of headlamp performance.• The headband is made from stretch webbing that’s good quality and just about 1-inch wide. The fabric has a unique grippy texture and a bead of silicone on the inside surface. Taken together, the headband is purpose built, designed to have a no-slip quality.• The headband fabric is perforated to promote air circulation. The ventilation should keep the head cool when wearing the headband for extended periods.• The headband webbing has a firm stretch and excellent resilience. These properties should help retain the shape of the headband, even after extended use.• Headband sizing adjustments are made with a tri-glide slide buckle. It has a solid grip on the webbing that keeps adjustments from loosening during use.• Overall, the headband provides excellent support for the lamp, and it's comfortable to wear.✅ The headlamp has powerful LEDs. There are 3 different color temps (3000K, 4500K, & 6500K), and each puts out a wide beam that can be adjusted to one of four different intensities (ULTRALOW, LOW, MEDIUM, HIGH). LOW sheds enough light for most applications within a distance of 10-ft. While on HIGH, I can distinguish detail out to at least 50 yards. However, I’m not so sure about the advertised spec of 144 yards on HIGH. Regardless, when I compared the intensity at each setting to a top name brand headlamp that I’ve had for about 5 years, the NITECORE model was superior at all brightness levels.✅ Hybrid power. Runs on either 3xAAA alkaline batteries (included) or a NITECORE rechargeable battery (not included).✅ Get caught in a rainstorm? No problem. Drop the headlamp in a large body of water, and it sinks down a few feet? Still no problem. This headlamp has IP68 rating, and the company has the permissible submersion depth advertised at 2m.✅ `Impact resistance rated at 1m.✅ The headlamp comes with a clip for mounting on a ball cap or similar headgear. This feature takes the versatility to a level that fixed headlamps can’t match.✅ Full-Tilt (90°) headlamp with detents or positive stops at predetermined tilt angles. The user will experience a “click” at each preset angle. This feature will keep the headlamp at the set angle without slipping out of position.✅ 60-month warranty. Beat that!❗️As good as this headlamp is, and it is very good, I’m not too keen on how the yellow tinted lighting (3000K and 4500K) is prioritized in the selection sequence over the more technically oriented cool white light (6500K). The fact is, yellow tinted lighting just doesn’t pull out detail the way lighting does that’s on the cooler end of the spectrum. And for that reason, most technical headlamps feature cool color temperatures, not warm yellow. I doubt I’ll ever use the yellow color temps. But yet every time I use this headlamp, I have to cycle through the yellow to get to the white light. Not a big deal, but annoying just the same. The 4500K setting has a distinctive yellow tint that’s not typically seen with neutral white light. I suspect it might be warmer than 4500K.❗️If the lights had memory, the above issue would go away. Unfortunately, the lights don’t have memory. So once again, I’ll be cycling through the yellow-tinted white lights to get to the cool white light every time I use this headlamp.❗️I also don’t understand why a rechargeable battery wasn’t included. Scratch that, I do understand. This decision is clearly an attempt to keep the price down. However, if you want to use this headlamp to its fullest capability and efficiency, you’ll have to invest another $12.95 to purchase a NITECORE brand rechargeable battery. It’s the old “pay me now or pay me latter” routine. In this case, it will be “pay me later” if you want to get the most from the headlamp. Indeed, according to the specs, the burn times of the rechargeable battery on HIGH is twice as long as what AAA batteries can provide. Is the rechargeable battery worth it? For me it sure is.❗️The two control buttons (one for color, one for intensity) aren’t the easiest to find by touch alone. Even though the manual describes them as being designed for easy one-handed operation. I don’t agree. It would have been better if the buttons were elevated a bit more above the surface of the lamp housing.❓The one spec I haven’t had a chance to evaluate is the Brightness-to-Burn Time (BBT) ratio. For example, I have a headlamp from one of the top name brands and it has a BBT ratio of 50:50. That is, it retains 50% of its original brightness halfway through the burn time (i.e. battery charge). I know with budget headlamps the BBT is usually much less. Maybe only 25:50. So hopefully this model is more like the top contenders.👍 RECOMMENDATION 👍Despite the few bumps in the road that I mentioned, I’m happy to give this NITECORE headlamp a strong 4-star rating and my recommendation. It’s a great product and a good value at the current price of $29.95. And even if you add the cost for the rechargeable battery, the total cost is less than what you’d have to pay for a top name brand. So for me, the choice is easy. I’d go with the NITECORE brand.

Customer photo review of HA23 UHE (Black) - 600 lumens

This is a great headlamp. It has many useful features. The interface is pretty simple to use and doesn't take much to memorize. The light output is great for its weight and runtime. I really like that you get 3 brightness settings plus an extra low setting (not quite a moon glow, but great for moving around camp or inside a house) and that you also get two brightness settings for the red light. I like that you can lock out the buttons so you don't accidentally turn it on and drain your batteries (backpackers). Speaking of, you can also check the battery status with a single click (works for AAA batteries as well). The beam pattern is a really nice combination of flood and spot, I'm loving that. There aren't any hot spots and yet it throws the light really well, too. The head strap is comfortable and has a line of silicone or something inside the front half to keep it from sliding down. There is a large range of motion for tilting the light up and down. The light weighs 1.97oz on my scale without batteries and 3.17oz with the three AAA batteries. You also get a nice little drawstring bag to hold it.For ultralight backpackers, they commonly use the Nitecore NU25. It's 1.75oz for the full head strap and slightly less for the elastic cord version. The battery is built it on it and 400 lumens. I think you get a better value with this light. It's only slightly heavier, you get 600 lumens, and you have the option of using a rechargeable lithium battery or AAA batteries. Regular alkaline batteries are generally easy to find in emergency situations. Also, the NU25 has an IP66 waterproof rating, whereas this light has slightly better IP68 rating and says you can dunk it up to 2ft of water, iirc. This light is also currently $10 cheaper than the NU25.For critiques, I think this light should include the lithium battery pack and ditch the AAA batteries that are included. The lithium battery is just $13 but should be available as a combo package, if is not already (maybe in another listing? I'm not sure). Also, I have a ton of flashlights and I'm used to picking the led temperature as an option. I feel like we might be able to save a little bit of money by not having two temperature LEDs built in (warm led, cool led, both used for neutral temp). Generally, people prefer one temperature over others and I don't there is much of a need for swapping temperatures. Maybe it's just easier for them to make all the lights the same, who knows.In summary, this is a really great light and it seems like they have tried to include a ton of features (except rechargeable battery). You'll be really happy with it unless you're an ultralight hiker, lol. This is a well known brand and you can trust their products.

Good

Customer photo review of HA23 UHE (Black) - 600 lumens

I am always looking at ways to improve my gear and any time I can find a product that does more than one thing, it is likely to become my new favorite. My husband ordered this NiteCore light for me knowing that I could use it as a head lamp, on my hat, or on my backpack to light the path. I generally do not like headbands but the band itself is comfortable and the light is not particularly heavy on my head. My preferred method will be to attach the light using the included clip to something else. The light currently is running on 3 AAA batteries and also has an option to work on a battery pack or other AAA lithium batteries. Great option to know I can just change the batteries if needed instead of trying to recharge while on the trail somewhere. Light has options and settings as well. All in all, this is an excellent light with great versatility to meet whatever need I have at the moment. Happy to recommend.

Customer photo review of HLB1500 Battery (1500mAh)

bought as spare batt for ultra marathon. relatively fast charging time and last long. highly recommended.

It’s lightweight enough for my needs, has flexible brightness levels, and a great backup battery alternative.

Great customer service n great product..

Good customer service n great product..

Easy to use, with different level of brightness and 3 different lights, it also able to adjust to the level that needs.

Suitability:good Quality:good Performance:good Item received in good condition and delivery was fast!

This "miner's lamp" has a warm-light setting perfect for reading in the dark. Finding one with this feature has been harder than I thought. So, upon initial experience, this is a very happy purchase!

If you need a high-quality headlamp, this is the one for you. You can buy one for less and use it for a few days, but if you want a reliable flashlight from a reputable brand, rest assured, it's worth the money.

Runtime:The battery provides longer runtime Charging:USB-C is fast charging and easy to use Quality:The battery feels sturdy for daily use Highly recommended and definitely will buy from this seller!

I bought 2 of these headlights, one as a gift and the other one for myself. I'm planning on using it to hike the tallest mountain in my country.Pros:1) I'm impressed by how bright it is, definitely an option worth considering for long hikes in the woods.2) The clever design it has to manage heat very efficiently. The heat sink allows the light to sustain it's brightness for a long time!3) The headlamp is very lightweight (exactly 100g according to my kitchen scale) and the headband feels very comfortable too, making it a great option for long walks at night.4) The battery runs for a very long time, but the option to switch from it's rechargeable battery to standard AAAs makes this headlamp incredibly convenient, specially if there is limited access to energy to recharge the battery. Consider buying a separate rechargeable battery as the highest lumen output (turbo mode) can only be accessed through it because of it's energy output compared to AAAs.5) The red light is very useful to read things at night without compromising your night vision and can also be switched to a flashing red light to attach it to a backpack using the belt clip when riding a bike for increased visibility.6) I found the belt clip to be very useful whenever I don't feel like carrying the light on my head, just attach it to a backpack strap and keep moving!Cons:I don't know if it's just me, but I honestly haven't stumbled upon any cons so far. This headlamp has performed perfectly for what I usually use it (hiking at night, camping, and as an emergency light).I would totally recommend this light, and in fact, I'm now planning on buying one for my wife for our hiking adventures.

The different lumen settings are great. I used it in a crawl space & it lit the space better than expected. It also works great at night. The adjustable headband is comfortable & extremely helpful when you need to use your hands. The price is reasonable.

Good product

Works well and is pretty bright.The battery lasts a very long time.I’ll use it for fishing at night and working under my car or at night.The only con for me is that the strap sometimes pops out of its guide when you try to adjust it.

It’s plenty bright enough to work with and the yellow color is great for night fishing and I love the clip so I can put it on my jacket or a hat. Had it out in the rain for a couple hours it worked fine. Bought a 1500 MH battery for it to give me extra time and I love the use of batteries.

I do BT trail using it and it works very well at a lower lumen setting. So no complains

Awesome budget headlamp! Bright multiple color and brightness levels.

This is the brightest headlamp I've every used that uses AAA batteries. I use rechargeable 1.5v AAA lithium batteries in them and they stay bright all they way until shut-off. I love that I can change the color temperature with these for different scenarios.

I love anything Nitecore. This headlamp is a great addition to any need

👍
