Petzl Iko Core Rechargeable Headlamp

The Petzl Iko Core rechargeable headlamp integrates various technologies to deliver 500 lumens, all while maintaining a remarkably light weight of 79 g. Its AIRFIT® headband, slim lamp body, and rear-mounted energy source combine for exceptional balance and comfort. Additionally, it can be worn as a headlamp, around the neck, or even transformed into a lantern with the included storage pouch. And with its versatile HYBRID CONCEPT design, the IKO® CORE can be powered by either the CORE rechargeable battery or three AAA/LR03 batteries (not included).

Features

• Ergonomic and Comfortable with the AIRFIT® Headband (Petzl Patent):
  
  
  • Designed with an innovative and streamlined structure, featuring a semi-rigid headband, an ultra-thin lamp body, and a rear battery pack, which evenly distributes the headlamp’s weight for optimal balance and near-imperceptible comfort.
  • The water-repellent headband effectively resists sweat and rain while maintaining a slim profile, significantly reducing contact points and enhancing airflow during dynamic activities.
  • A quick and intuitive rear adjustment mechanism ensures a secure and customised fit.
    

• Optimal Visual Comfort:
  
  
  • Offers a combination of lightweight design and high performance, providing 500 lumens of brightness while weighing only 79 g.
  • Equipped with multiple LEDs that ensure a uniform and well-balanced light distribution.
  • Features two distinct beam types (wide or mixed) and multiple white brightness levels to accommodate various requirements, including proximity lighting, movement, and distance vision.
  • Three easily accessible lighting levels can be adjusted swiftly using a single button.
    

• Rechargeable:
  
  
  • Powered by a CORE battery that recharges conveniently via a micro USB port.
    

• The environmental footprint is significantly reduced, as a single CORE rechargeable battery lasts as long as 900 conventional batteries throughout its lifespan.
• Designed with HYBRID CONCEPT technology, the IKO® CORE headlamp includes a CORE rechargeable battery but is also compatible with three standard batteries. The lamp intelligently detects the power source and optimises its lighting performance accordingly. When using the CORE rechargeable battery, it delivers 500 lumens, while with standard batteries, it provides 350 lumens.
  

• Versatile and Easy to Use:
  
  
  • Adaptable for various applications, whether worn on the head or around the neck, placed on a surface, or attached to a tent pole or tree.
  • The included storage pouch transforms the headlamp into a lantern when needed.
  • Reflective elements on the rear enhance visibility during nighttime activities.
  • A built-in battery charge indicator displays the remaining power each time the lamp is switched on or off.
  • Features two LOCK functions to prevent accidental activation.
  • Designed to fold flat within its minimalist pouch, allowing for compact storage.
  • Fully compatible with all Petzl helmets.
