Nitecore HC65 UHE Ultra High Triple Output Metal Headlamp Black

High Performance Metal Headlamp

The Nitecore HC65 UHE Ultra High Triple Output Metal Headlamp Black delivers exceptional brightness, long lifetime, and extended beam distance, providing an enhanced user experience with outstanding performance.

Key Features

• Constructed entirely of metal for durability
• Equipped with ultra high efficiency (UHE) LEDs
• Maximum output of 2,000 lumens with a beam distance of 222 metres

Rugged Structure

The headlamp features a rugged metal design with finely chamfered edges, inspired by off-road vehicle toughness. It is dust and waterproof to IP68 standards, with internally waterproofed interfaces allowing for waterproof charging. Additional protection includes a crash protection cap and a 2-metre drop-proof design to withstand dust, water, and accidental falls during outdoor use.

The near center of gravity design reduces pressure on the forehead, enhancing comfort. It includes a wide, comfortable head strap and a durable carrying case.

Waterproof and Drop Proof

The HC65 UHE is rated IP68 for dust and water resistance. Its interfaces are internally waterproofed for safe charging in wet conditions. The headlamp also features a collision protection cap and is designed to survive drops from up to 2 metres.

Ultra High Efficiency LED Technology

The headlamp uses Ultra High Efficiency (UHE) LEDs designed specifically for high-performance lighting equipment. This technology improves efficiency per watt, resulting in brighter, more energy-efficient, and longer-lasting illumination.

8-Core UHE LED and Matrix Optics

The HC65 UHE incorporates an 8-core UHE LED combined with an 8-core UHE matrix optical system. This architecture optimizes both performance and power consumption. The advanced matrix optics achieve over 94% light transmission efficiency and feature a reflective area of 509 mm², minimizing light loss and enhancing reflection efficiency to increase beam distance.

With a peak output of 2,000 lumens and a beam distance of 222 metres, the headlamp meets demanding requirements for various environments.

Wide Area Light Source

The headlamp has a 42 mm wide surface light source, which improves the perception of illuminated objects by making them appear more three-dimensional and natural with clearer, more transparent contours. This enhances safety in outdoor environments.

Battery and Runtime

The HC65 UHE includes a high-performance 4,000 mAh 18650 Li-ion battery (model NL1840HP), offering approximately 17.6% more capacity than typical 3,400 mAh Li-ion batteries. At 400 lumens (High mode), it provides up to 14 hours of continuous operation, suitable for extended night use.
