Are you looking for a versatile light for trail running, hiking, or evening runs? The Nitecore NU33 is a compact and lightweight rechargeable headlamp that delivers an impressive 700-lumen output and a beam range of 135 meters. Its optical lens produces an ultra-wide (100°) beam, providing comprehensive illumination of the terrain even in demanding conditions.
The light is equipped with three different LEDs: a powerful main light, a low-output white light, and a red light that preserves night vision. The red light is perfect for tasks such as reading maps, stargazing, or nature photography, as it does not dazzle the eyes in the dark. An exceptionally high color rendering index (CRI > 90) ensures natural color reproduction and prevents eye strain, even during prolonged use.
Safety is enhanced by a high-quality headband featuring reflective details for visibility to other road users and motorists. The IP66-rated construction ensures complete protection against water and dust, so the light won't fail even in a downpour.
Key features:
- Powerful performance: Max. 700 lm output, 135 m range, and an ultra-wide 100° beam.
- Versatile lighting modes: 5-level brightness adjustment for white light, a separate red light, and two flashing modes (SOS and Beacon).
- Excellent color rendering: A high CRI value of >90 ensures natural colors and reduces eye strain.
- Easy USB-C charging: The built-in 2000 mAh Li-ion battery charges quickly. You can easily check the battery level via the 4-stage indicator light.
- Effortless control: Two clear switches for adjusting the light and changing modes, plus a lock function to prevent accidental activation.
- Weather-resistant and safe: Dust- and waterproof (IP66) and equipped with a reflective headband.
- Long warranty: The manufacturer provides a 5-year (60-month) warranty for the luminaire.
