About
Powerful headlamp with adjustable beam and long battery life. Lightweight and comfortable for hands-free illumination on trail and at camp. The Nitecore NU25 delivers exceptional performance for its ultralight design, featuring 400 lumens max output, USB-C charging, and red/white LED versatility in just 45 grams. It's become a gold standard for ultralight backpacking and trail running applications. While not the most durable option for heavy-duty use, it excels in its intended lightweight category.
