A featherweight but capable headlamp ideally suited activities where weight is a premium, such as fell running and ultralight camping but would also make a fantastic back up torch or everyday carry.
Manufacturer's Description:
The new Nitecore NU25 (2022) headlamp offers a maximum output of 400 lumens from the high performance LEDs and is powered by a built-in 650mAh li-ion battery. The light is rechargeable via a USB-C port and comes with a USB to USB-C charging cable.
The new design of the popular headlamp provides dual primary lights; a spotlight and floodlight. The dual primary lights can be used together or independently, achieving the ideal combination of long distance throw and flood beam. In addition, the NU25 has a red light for map viewing, emergency use, stargazing, wildlife observation and night photography.
The NU25 is operated by a dual switch interface on the top of the unit for fast and efficient one-handed use. Next to the mode button is a power indicator which offers the following information on remaining battery power:
- 1 LED: approx. 25%
- 2 LEDs: approx. 50%
- 3 LEDs: approx. 75%
- 4 LEDs: approx. 100%
The NU25 head torch has a quick-release hollow bracket and a dual purpose sports headband. The light is made from lightweight PC materials which is lighter, more durable and more resistant to low temperatures than conventional plastics.
