## Description

desertcart.com : Petzl ACTIK CORE Headlamp - Rechargeable, Compact 450 Lumen Light With Red Lighting for Hiking, Climbing, and Camping - Orange : Sports & Outdoors

Review: My favorite headlamps - 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).
Review: Quality Headlamp - 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.

## Features

- LIGHT FOR ANY ACTIVITY: With 450 lumens, two beam patterns (flood or mixed), and several white brightness levels; the ACTIK CORE provides high-performance lighting in dynamic outdoor activities. Lighting can adapt to proximity, distance, or rapid movement. Red lighting preserves night vision and prevents members of a group from blinding each other.
- RELIABLE PERFORMANCE: With Petzl's 50:50 Brightness-to-Burn-Time ratio, your Petzl headlamp will retain 50% of its original brightness halfway through the Burn-Time, rather than the 20-30% brightness you get in other brands.
- HYBRID CONCEPT: The Petzl ACTIK CORE comes with a rechargeable CORE battery. Like other Petzl Headlamps it can run on either the CORE rechargeable battery or three AAA/LR03 batteries without an adapter.
- ANY USER-FRIENDLY: The ACTIK is simple to use. And practical. Single button for quick and easy selection of brightness or light color. LOCK function to avoid accidentally turning it on during transit or storage. reflective headband for night visibility.
- RED LED: Red lighting preserves night vision and prevents members of a group from blinding each other.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How do you turn on the red light? the graphic instructions simply "say" to push the button. when i do that all i get are the 3 levels of white.**
A: To be honest, it took me a while to get the hang of turning the red light on and off.  Once I managed to turn it on I couldn't get it turned off, and vice versa.  Its one of those things I've learned to do, but can't quite explain how I do it.  I guess pushing and holding the button is the 'secret'.

**Q: How do you know when the rechargeable battery is full?**
A: There's an indicator light on the battery pack that changes from red to green during recharge.  If the battery is low while in use, the headlamp will blink (and you won't be able to use the highest setting without it shutting down).

**Q: Does this headlamp have a memory function?**
A: No. It's a headlamp.

**Q: what country is this made in?**
A: France.

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.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My favorite headlamp
*by K***R on January 30, 2024*

I find this to be indispensable. It is comfortable to wear, does't have superfluous straps, wires, compartments. Just a simple headlamp with easily accessible and rechargeable battery with awesome life. Although I haven't tried it, the ability to use AAA batteries helps in a pinch. The battery life has been great. The max brightness has come in handy multiple times for a nighttime flag ceremony, scoping and setting up a camping area a night, or as a theatre light for skits during a campfire program. I find the buttons easy to use to adjust brightness or mode. The strap holds its setting well. The entire light is rather light, but it has been durable for me (I generally care for my equipment well since I need to depend on it).
