ACTIK CORE

Petzl is by far my favorite headlamp manufacturer and I have owned a few other brands including nite ize, and princeton tec. Their longevity is great, I have some that are over 10 years old (not that bright by todays standards though) and still running strong. The new core lights are fantastic, besides having 2 options for batteries, The rechargeable CORE and AAAs, they are vey bright, have multiple modes including red, and are easy to operate. i also find the light such as this with no rear battery pack and are very lightweight to ge very comfortable for long use. i have 3 of these and a Tacktikka CORE in random spots around my house for night use as well as power outages (in addition to my 3 or 4 ‘vintage’ Petzls).

I now own two of these. I bought one about two years ago and have used it on numerous trips as well as around the house. Lightweight, easy to use, adjustable, and multiple light settings. The Core battery has worked perfectly for me. Recharges fully in a few hours and battery life is pretty good. As long as I am not using the highest brightness (there are 3 brightness levels), I can go months before recharging, using it a few nights a week. However, at the highest brightness, you will drain the battery after about an hour of usage. But I find that level 2 brightness is perfect for nearly every scenario. Nice to be able to put AAA batteries in if needed. But also rechargeable in the field, too. Took this on our 16 day Grand Canyon trip and hadn't charged it before hand. But we took a small solar charger with us and it easily charged the Core over the course of a few hours. Only downside is that it is not actually waterproof. Haven't had any issues yet, but would give me more peace of mind if it were waterproof.

Great light, very bright with ability to adjust and long lasting battery. I use it often & 3 years later it shows no sign of age.

This Petal is an excellent light. It's various settings make it useful for many tasks where more or less light is needed. It's very useful to have the CORE rechargeable battery, as well as to be able to use regular batteries. Most of the time I only need the rechargeable battery, but I really like that it can also use regular batteries if I'm out away from electricity.

I like to run, and I like to run before work. Well, at 5:00am it's pretty darn dark and I like to see where I'm going. This like is doing a great job keeping the road in front of my well lit. 450 lumens is the perfect amount of light for running on dark roads. I like that the light can rotate several degrees. It says put on the setting that I pick and I can point it out so I can see in the distance, or point it down so I can get a bright light directly in front of me. It's comfortable on my head and has little to no bounce while running. It's easy to select the 3 settings of brightness. I also like that it includes a red light, as I do some nighttime photography and having a red light is a necessity to preserve my night sight. What I am finding is that the brightest setting is the only one worth using while running. There are 3 levels of white light, and the first 2 are not bright enough to run with. However, they are good enough for using around the house in the dark so they are not a compete waste. But, using the headlamp on the brightest setting really sucks the battery. I am finding I can get about 2 hours on a full charge, then the light switches down to the next lower light setting. It's nice that it doesn't completely shut off, as I've been in the middle of a run and rather than having no light, it just power down one setting and keeps running for about 30 more minutes. I just need to remember to charge it more often so I always have a full charge before heading out. In an emergency it can take 3 AAA batteries instead of the lithium battery and I love this feature. Also once the battery eventually wears down I can just buy a replacement battery instead of a whole new headlamp. Overall I'm really happy with this headlamp and would recommend it.

Used this on a few camping trips and its been amazing. Lasted both trips in one cage (6 nights total). Its extremely bright in the highest mode, and I cant imagine wanting a brighter light than this. Low brightness and red modes are also useful and help the battery last longer. Charges via usb micro, and thus is super convenient. Buy with confidence.

Durable headlamp and battery. We had one of these go missing for a couple of months, found it outside. It had been buried in the snow, freezing rain, and many inches of rain. Did have moisture inside, left it open for a couple of days and charged the battery. Works fine been using it. These have been our best headlamps worth the money.

I rarely write reviews on Amazon, but I am very,very pleased with this headlamp. I’ve owned many headlamps over the years used primarily for backcountry hiking and camping. I purchased the last three models of black diamond’s top headlamp and I’m not a fan of the yellow dot in the middle of the beam. The Petzel produces a strong, even, cool white light. You have a choice whether to use the included rechargeable battery or AAA batteries. I’m very pleased with this purchase! 👍🤠

Gibt nicht viel zu meckern. Brauchte nur Ersatz da ich sie verloren hatte. Einfach vielseitig und durchdacht! Benutze meist nur das rote Licht und dann hält sie ewig. Für mich ist die Lichtleistung insgesamt ausreichend. Auch bei Regen bisher kein ausfall. Einzig der Gummi am Knopf war nach Jahren nicht mehr das wahre. Scheint die Schwachstelle im Lebenszyklus zu sein. Aber vllt kriegt man Ersatz. In meinen Augen ist diese Headlight jeden Cent wert. Ich kaufe nichts anderes mehr als Petzl! Akku Lebensdauer und Leistung Top -einfach zu laden -sofortiger Ersatz als in Garantiezeit defekt -Und zum leerkriegen von AAA Batterien perfekt Ich benutze 2 Akkus im Wechsel und Zuhause die fast leeren AAA Batterien. Versuche die Akkus nie ganz voll oder leer zu haben. Daher ist mir noch kein Leistungsverlust aufgefallen und dieser kaum messbar.

Did a 10 day rafting trip in the wilds of Tasmania a few years ago. All the guides used these lamps. So I bought one when I got back. It's a quality item, totally recommend it.

犬の散歩用に購入しました 軽くて充分な明るさです デザインもかっこいいです MAXだと明るすぎるので歩行者や対向車が眩しいのでstandardで使用しています 朝晩で1時間ほど使用して週に1回の充電で良いです 小雨でも問題ありませんがOリングなどでの防水はされていませんので耐水性は不明です

Estaba buscando una solución para poder leer de noche sin molestar a mi pareja, que me sirviese para usar en toda la casa (salón, dormitorio). Había probado lámparas de estas que se fijan al libro, pero las que yo he probado no son muy cómodas y suelen iluminar bastante mal la página. Se me ocurrió que quizá con una lámpara frontal de este tipo podría cubrir mis necesidades. Después de buscar un poco en Google encontré un par de comentarios de gente que las usaba exactamente para esto, tanto de acampada como en casa, así que me decidí a probar. La experiencia ha sido muy buena en mi caso. · La lámpara es ligera y cómoda. No cansa llevarla mucho rato. · La cinta es suave y tiene un buen ajuste · El sistema de baterías recargables es sencillo y dura bastante (se pueden usar pilas AAA tb) · La luz, en el modo intermedio es más que suficiente para leer · Se puede ajustar el ángulo del foco ligeramente · La fabricación y los materiales son de buena calidad En resumen muy bien, como punto negativo solamente diría que es un poquito cara, pero es una marca de calidad reconocida y espero que me dure mucho tiempo.

Cheap plastic build. We hope Main team from petzl take note of this. It happens when they outsource the production
