Nitecore HC65 UHE Head Torch
WITH A MAXIMUM OUTPUT OF 2000 LUMENS, THE NITECORE HC65 UHE HEAD TORCH IS THE LIGHT FOR YOUR NEXT GREAT ADVENTURE
The Nitecore HC65 UHE headlamp has a maximum output of 2000 lumens from the 8 x NiteLab UHE LEDs and is powered by a high performance 18650 li-ion battery (included). It is rechargeable via USB-C and can be fully charged in as little as 2 hours.
Short for Ultra High Efficiency, the UHE LED is the first of its kind and ensures enhanced efficiency per watt, offering a brighter, more energy-efficient and long-lasting experience. The 8-core UHE LED gives the HC65 UHE a 14.3% brightness increase and 8% decrease in power consumption compared to the Nitecore HC65 V2 headlamp, plus an improved beam distance by 34.5%.
FEATURES OF THE HC65 UHE HEAD TORCH
The HC65 UHE has a 42mm light emitting surface, approximately 2.5 times wider than its previous generation. This design helps illuminate objects fully with high precision, enhancing safety during outdoor activities.
In addition to the 4 levels of primary white light, the headlamp offers dual auxiliary lights; a high CRI white light which produces a realistic depiction of colour and is ideal for close up illumination, plus a red light to preserve night vision and for use in an emergency.
The light is operated by a dual button user interface, made up of a power button to turn the light on and off, and a mode button to switch between the brightness levels and light sources. Lockout mode is available to prevent accidental activation.
Brightness Levels:
Primary white light
Turbo: 2000 lumens – 2 hrs runtime
Higher: 1300 lumens – 5 hrs runtime
High: 400 lumens – 14 hrs runtime
Mid: 100 lumens – 31 hrs runtime
Plus SOS and Beacon (1300 lumens)
Auxiliary white light
Low: 40 lumens – 40 hrs runtime
Ultralow: 8 lumens – 82 hrs runtime
Auxiliary red light
High: 15 lumens – 37 hrs runtime
Low: 5 lumens – 66 hrs runtime
Plus slow flashing (15 lumens)
Advanced temperature regulation (ATR) regulates the output of the HC65 UHE according to the working and ambient temperature to maintain optimal performance while preventing the LED from overheating. The outputs are measured in total of runtime, including output at reduced levels due to temperature or protection mechanisms in the design, causing the brightness level to drop down.
Maximum beam distance 222 meters, waterproof to IP68 and resistant to impacts up to 2 meters.
Includes: storage case, Nitecore NL1840HP 4000mAh 18650 li-ion battery, USB-C to USB-C charging cable, headband, top strap.
