Petzl IKO CORE headlamp 500 lumen

Description

Product information

The PETZL IKO CORE is a revolutionary, ultra-light, and rechargeable headlamp that combines innovative technology with maximum wearing comfort. Its patented AIRFIT headband offers an unmatched, barely noticeable fit. With a high luminosity of 500 lumens and the included PETZL CORE battery, it is the premium solution for dynamic activities such as running or climbing as well as for professional users for whom every gram counts.

Highlights at a glance

  • AIRFIT headband: Innovative, semi-rigid band for excellent hold and comfort, without suction effect (hydrophobic).
  • Ultra-light and balanced: Barely noticeable at just 79 grams, energy pack at the back of the head for perfect weight distribution.
  • Strong luminosity: 500 lumens for clear and far-reaching illumination.
  • Includes CORE battery: Supplied with the rechargeable PETZL CORE battery for maximum economy.
  • HYBRID CONCEPT: Flexible operation, either with CORE battery or three AAA batteries (sold separately).
  • Versatile carrying options: Can be used on the head, around the neck or as a lantern in the carrying bag.

Revolutionary comfort with AIRFIT

The innovative AIRFIT headband is the core of the PETZL IKO CORE. The semi-rigid band reduces the contact area to a minimum and provides a secure hold without pressure points. It does not absorb sweat or rain (hydrophobic) and can be adjusted quickly and precisely at the back of the head. The ultra-thin lamp housing and the rear-mounted energy pack ensure a perfectly balanced weight distribution.

Rechargeable power and optimum illumination

As a CORE model, this headlamp is supplied with the PETZL CORE lithium-ion battery. This is simply charged via the integrated Micro-USB port. Thanks to HYBRID CONCEPT, you can also use three standard AAA batteries in emergencies. Several LEDs provide a wide or combined light beam for optimum visibility in the near and far range.

Maximum versatility in use

The IKO CORE is more than just a headlamp. Thanks to its unique design, it can be worn comfortably around the neck to keep your head free. In the supplied carrying bag, it can also be transformed into a lantern to provide diffuse, pleasant light in a tent or workshop. A LOCK function prevents accidental activation during transport.

FAQs about the PETZL IKO CORE headlamp

What is the difference between the IKO CORE and the standard IKO?

The main difference is the luminosity and the delivery scope. The IKO CORE (this model) has 500 lumens and the rechargeable CORE battery is already included. The standard IKO has 350 lumens and is supplied with AAA batteries (the CORE battery can be retrofitted).

Can I still use normal batteries?

Yes. Thanks to HYBRID CONCEPT, you can remove the included CORE battery and operate the lamp with three standard AAA/LR03 batteries instead. This offers maximum flexibility if no charging option is available.

What does the IPX4 protection class mean?

IPX4 means that the headlamp is protected against splashing water from all directions. It can be used in rain or damp environments without any problems, but it is not suitable for submersion in water (diving).

How does the lantern function work?

The lamp is supplied with a special carrying bag. If you put the switched-on lamp in this bag and hang it up, the bag diffuses the light and creates a glare-free, all-round illumination, similar to a small lantern.
