Nitecore NU25 360 Lumen Triple Output – White, Red, High CRI – Lightweight USB Rechargeable Headlamp (Black)
February 4, 2019 - Comment
The NITECORE NU25 utilizes three light sources (white, red and high CRI) to create a versatile and lightweight headlamp you’ll find endless uses for. A powerful CREE XP-G2 S3 LED capable of 360 lumen and a 88 yard throw serves as the main output and is useful for outdoor activities like running, cycling, hiking and camping. There’s also an auxiliary red LED that helps preserve night vision for nighttime photography, map reading and stargazing while an auxiliary high CRI LED produces a warm, floody beam ideal for up close reading and detail work. Dual switches located on the top of the unit provide easy access to the main and auxiliary lights.
The NU25 uses a built-in rechargeable battery to reduce the size and weight of the unit and to create a compact and comfortable headlamp users can wear for hours at a time. When you’re ready to recharge, simply plug-in the micro-USB charging cable into the built-in micro-USB port and any USB compatible power source, making this a great headlamp for travel and daily use. The headlamp unit can also be connected to external USB power sources via the built-in micro-USB port for extended runtimes allowing you to continue activities without having to stop and recharge.

A Very Lightweight, Bright and Excellent Lamp that is Held Back By Charge Retention This lamp is more than bright enough, incredibly intuitive in it’s operation than most and it has everything I need…. Except a decent battery.The headlamp will often nearly discharge itself if left alone for a period of time. Bottom line is that you *must* charge this lamp immediately before you intend to use it to have a full charge or you may be out of luck. It’s easy to charge, absolutely with just a simple USB micro connection of any type, but my lamp has to spend all of its time on…
Perfect light for backpacking, car, around the house. Crushes Petzl. I’ve used Petzl headlamps for a decade and love them. I recently bought both a Petzl Actik Core ($70 model E99abb) and this Nitecore NU25 for half as much. I can’t believe how much better the Nitecore is! Petzl needs to step up their game.Compared to the Petzl, the NU 25:- is half the price- is 1/3 the weight and more compact (important for extended use)- is more water resistant- is able to light up while plugged in to power. (I carry a power bank when…
Great headlamp with Misleading Info on both weight & lumens Yes, it is capable of 360 lumens, but only for 30 seconds! That’s not a 360 Lumen headlamp – it’s a 190 Lumen lamp with short burst capability to 360 in “Turbo Mode” which steps down in 30 seconds to avoid overheating. And yes, the lamp weighs in at 1 oz. And if you want to tie it to your head with a light string you won’t add much to that. But it’s likely that you want to use the headband which adds another .9 oz. 53 grams total or 1.9 oz. That really should be made clear to the…
