Gear Review – Petzl Actik Core

Gear Review – Petzl Actik Core
Product Reviews

The rechargeable ACTIK CORE headlamp offers 450 lumens of power, which, along with its multi-beam design, makes it ideal for dynamic outdoor activities like mountaineering, running, hiking and backpacking. Red lighting preserves night vision and prevents members of a group from blinding each other. The reflective headband provides night visibility. ACTIK CORE comes with the CORE rechargeable battery and is also compatible with three AAA/LR03 batteries (not included), thanks to the HYBRID CONCEPT design. Mounting accessories allow the lamp to be attached to any kind of helmet, or to a bicycle.

My Review

I’ve been a huge fan of headlamps for years. They are used for so many things, everything from night hikes, camping trips and they work great for BBQing. I use it for working on my jeep and all kinds of other times when I need my hands but need light.

Petzl is a leader in headlamps and I’ve been with them for years. I wanted a bright light with the red lighting for better night vision. And the Actik Core has it all. It’s not their cheapest version but for around $60, it’s more than worth it.
