Petzl Actik Core Headlamp: Bright, Rechargeable LED Light for Outdoor Adventures

J. Cogswell: The light is nice & bright with 3 brightness setting. I use it for all sorts of projects that require more light.

The lithium ion battery is great as I don't have to feed it batteries. I had been borrowing my wife's Petzl headlamp and I was going through batteries like crazy.

The option to use the rechargeable battery or regular batteries is a great option.

Daniel: I've used this on many runs through forests/parks at night and it works very well. The red light is really nice when it's colder because it doesn't light up your breath and make it impossible to see where you're going. The rechargeable battery makes this much more easy to use.

david: Works as intended. It’s got a red light & then a white light with several modes. It’s a little fiddly to switch between modes but that might be alleviated if I were bothered to read the instruction manual

Amazon Customer: Me and a group of friends were set to do the 3 peaks challenge...knowing that Scafell Pike was going to be done in the dark, I realised the purchase of a Head torch may be a wise move to prevent my decent off the mountain being premature!
I did a drop of googling to read some reviews, then gave up and wached a YouTube review video on head torches instead....much easier.
This particular torch had good things said about it, so I took the plunge and made the purchase.
Didn't really try it before we set off on our challenge as I put my faith in people with more time to compare head torches than I.
I have to say, the fact I am writing this review is testament to its quality.
Going up the aforementioned Scafell Pike, with head torch fitted comfortably around my dome, it was clear from the off, if I made a false move, it would've been my own error and I wouldn't have been able to say 'I couldn't see where I was going'.

It was bright enough to light up the eyes of satan himself, and not too bad on battery life I might add.
This ol head torch got me all the way to the summit and halfway down on the rechargeable battery supplied.
When I noticed that the light...

Bonnet Didier: Achetée il y a bientôt 3 semaine pour sortir promener mon chien chaque soir dans la campagne, beaucoup plus pratique qu'une lampe torche et tout aussi efficace lorsque l'on à besoin d'y voir ; il y a souvent des sangliers qu'il vaut mieux ne pas trop approcher...
L'éclairage rouge permet de voir où l'on met les pieds tout en laissant ses yeux s'habituer à l'obscurité, les 3 niveau d'éclairage blanc sont très bien étagés, la pleine puissance est assez impressionnante. La batterie amovible et rechargeable est un vrai plus, on a toujours une efficacité optimum en la rechargeant de temps en temps contrairement aux piles qu'on a envie de faire durer par soucis d'économie. Cette frontale est assez légère et compact, parfait pour la glisser dans un sac et l'avoir sous la main pour un usage plus fréquent qu'on ne le pense initialement.
L'unique bouton est facilement accessible et pratique à l'usage.
Pour chercher "la petite bête", non je ne parle pas des sangliers, j'aurais aimé un rebord caoutchouté sur la fine l'arrête supérieure, au dessus des leds.
Elle correspond parfaitement à mes attentes.

The Void: Overall this is a great headlamp. Very bright on the brightest setting, red light vision is nice as well. However, the rechargeable battery is pretty much garbage. It can run at the brightest setting for about 15 minutes max, then forces you to move down in brightness levels until you can't see at all after not even an hour or so. It also takes a long time to recharge. Absolutely would not recommend for backpacking or climbing at night. With AAA batteries instead it lasts longer, but I didn't want to be replacing and throwing away batteries all the time.

Do yourself a favor and skip the rechargeable version of this headlamp.
