Nitecore HC65 V2 is compact and allows a well-lit walk together with excellent autonomy, it is a flashlight with front lighting system suitable for many uses such as runnung, caving, camping, rescue, climbing and mountaineering.

If you don’t know what this means, just skip this part, because only a handful of people care about this). The high CRI means the beam resembles that of morning sunlight, making colours appear more clearly to the human eye and also reducing eye strain, which makes this mode perfect for night reading. I really enjoy a 2-stage switch interface as it can be a very “fast” interface to use; generally you tend not to have to hold a button very long to do basic operations like turning on and off the light or switching levels. The setting of the various levels is memorized and maintained even after turning off the flashlight.The warm CRI>90 white light is suitable for short range illumination and resembles the warmth of sunlight, giving a sharp visual whilst reducing eye strain. When this arrived I thought it solid, but heavy on the head, and the use of the various light functions non intuitive. I used this at for maybe two hours on max brightness not Turbo and when hooked up for recharge was impressed it claimed to still be fully charge so the long run time I expect to prove out which is great.

Note: *The run-time for turbo is tested without temperature regulation active and therefore output and run-time in turbo may differ. During the charging process, the power indicator will blink slowly, while the power indicator will remain lit constantly to inform you when charging is complete. At this point there is a sudden drop up to almost 3 minutes where, after a slight increase in brightness, there is a stabilized value up to almost 1h17m. The positive terminal of the cell goes toward the “head” of the light which is the end with the switch.It wasn’t cheap but I can highly recommend it, I have a few others, one Sofirn and a couple smaller types which I take one of as a backup, but the HS65 is the one I always take, it has everything I need with no silly modes. There are several actions that could trigger this block including submitting a certain word or phrase, a SQL command or malformed data. Featuring a primary output from the Luminus SST-40-W LED and a maximum output of 1750 lumens and a range of up to 165 meters.

TURBO Availability: The TURBO level is only accessible when using an 18650 rechargeable Li-ion battery with a discharge current over 8A. All of my readings were taken from a fully-charged Nitecore NL1835HP 18650 type battery with 3500mAh. The Nitecore HC65 V2 is a T-shaped headlamp with the main emitter centered in the body of the headlamp, and the red and AUX LEDs on each side. While the included 18650 battery, built-in micro-USB charging port and charging cable provides a complete recharging system when connected to any USB power source, making this headlamp perfect for travel and long excursions.This is not the end of the battery life, because it continued at this output, till after 4hours-14minutes it dropped to 1 lumen. It produces enough light to walk safely in mid settings or it can be like daylight if you prefer - almost to light pollution levels ;) The 18650 battery seems to last ages - thoroughly recommended. But as a dedicated headlamp, some people don’t like the L-shaped headlamps as the beam is to the side and can feel a bit unnatural. The NITECORE HC65 V2 is a Triple Output Full Metal USB-C Rechargeable Headlamp with a max output of 1,750 lumens, a max throw of 165 meters, and a max runtime on ULTRALOW of 800 hours.

The strap has a few sections of rubberized grip on the inside which can help keep the strap from sliding around, particularly on hats and helmets. More on the switch later, but for now note that the tailcap is threaded on to the body (head and tail in fact) with small triangular threads, which are well lubed. The main white light LED, in the center of the optical system, is a Luminus SST-40-W with a maximum light output of 1750 lumens for an intensity of 7000 cd. International products have separate terms, are sold from abroad and may differ from local products, including fit, age ratings, and language of product, labeling or instructions. A single push button switch located on the side of the unit provides easy one-handed operation to seven brightness levels and four special modes.I've gotten to the point that I just close my eyes when I turn it on because I know I'm going to do it wrong and either activate the 10000lm strobe or the spot.
