About this deal

Nitecore’s warranty covers DOA or defective products within 15 days direct to the dealer, and then covers repairs for 2 years, due to the inbuilt battery (lights without inbuilt batteries come with 5 years warranty). Higher” is rated at 30 mins, but with a caveat of thermal regulation disabled. I don’t think that’s something that I can do, so it ramps down and goes along, but still runs for around 2.5 hours. Nitecore HC68 features ATR technology (advanced temperature regulation) which adjusts the light output according to the working conditions and the external environment to maintain optimum performance in safety. The main and innovative feature of the Nitecore HC28 is the continuous adjustment of the light output. The beam profile can be continuously adjusted between a focused light beam and a wide flood light beam. Just what I was looking for in this headlamp. Very bright spotlight with a lot of range but with an adjustable floodlight. I have three other Nitecore flashlights and the quality is great at a very economical price.

If it’s not needed, it can be removed and the light can be hand-carried or does a dandy head-or tail-stand. Nitecore Україна, що дозволить покупцеві насамперед отримати якісний пристрій із гарантією цілих п'ять років. There’s effectively three buttons to think about here; Power, “Plus”, and “Minus”. There’s also a few shortcuts to some modes, which I’ll go over below. The UI seems far more complicated in writing than it is in use, though – after a short time with the light, it’s very intuitive. Very long threads, so unscrewing the tailcap or revealing the charging port takes a lot of twisting. There’s a huge amount of modes that can be tested here – five brightnesses in two different modes (spot and flood), with an infinite number of options between, as spot and flood mix. To keep it simple, I’ve just done runtimes on the two highest modes (“Highest” and “High”) in both 100% spot and 100% flood, as well as the first 10 minutes of the Turbo mode, which lights up both emitters.

Much to the amusement of my wife, I proceeded to walk around the house fiddling with the Nitecore HC68 in all manners of practicality and silliness. I appreciated the ultra-low setting that kept me from losing all of my night-adjusted vision. The two-level red LED is fantastic for negotiating the dark with even less impact on night vision.

The HC68 headlamp comes with a 3500mAh high capacity 18650 battery that supports an exceptional 800 hours of runtime on ultra low. You can fast charge the headlamp via its protected USB-C charging port. The LED light beneath the power switch doubles as a charging status indicator and battery power indicator. All readings will be taken at 30 seconds, to simulate real-world use after an initial drop from power-on. I’ll also do an instant reading of Turbo. Mode I’ll be doing all readings at 5m – even the highest mode is only rated at 200m throw, so that’s sufficient here. Personally I believe that the 18650 format, in the headlamps, is still the best compromise between autonomy and weight, so I appreciate Nitecore which still invests and designs in this format. The HC68 also features an auxiliary red light which effectively protects night vision, making it ideal for wildlife observation, stargazing, emergency response and night photography. The red LEDs provide low, high and flashing outputs.The headband has a silicone “line” on the inside that goes around halfway the length of the band, to keep it anchored to your forehead (or whatever else you’ve got it attached to, for example, a helmet). It’s a small touch, but one that’s appreciated to ensure it stays in place. It’s also touted as a sweat-diverting strip, so I guess that’s another use for it.

The flashlight housing pivots in the headband to allow for different working angles and to prevent blinding fellow campers. TIR, спеціально розробленою для освітлення на великі відстані, щоб забезпечити максимальну дальність до 202 метрів та максимальну інтенсивність потоку світла 10300 кд. Tested to ANSI/PLATO FL 1-2019 standards in laboratory conditions using the included 18650 3500 mAh 8 A lithium-ion battery. The data may vary slightly in real world use depending on battery type, individual usage habits and environmental factors. The HC68 itself doesn’t have any voltage warnings – on bench power, I was able to wind the power down to 2.3V and the emitter was still very slightly lit, with no flashes of either the emitter or the indicator lights behind the top buttons. Any LVP would be as a result of the protected cell.The new Nitecore headlamp has a maximum power of 2,000 lumens for an intensity of 10,300cd and covers a maximum distance of 202 meters. With the 2 main white light LEDs we have 5 levels with depth beam, 5 levels with wide beam flood beam and 2 special levels (Beacon and SOS). The Nitecore HC68 is a lightweight very powerfulfocusable headlamp. It emits a max brightness of 2000 lumen white light that reaches up to 202meters. You can adjust the beam profile between a focused spotlight and a wide floodlight beam. Its 150° true vision wide-angle flood beam covers your entire field of vision, and the 180° vertical pivot provides you the ultimate control. Ideal headlamp for camping, running, trekking, biking, or any professional work.
