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.

The Vision CP12180DX is a high-performance, cycle-proof and valve-regulated lead-acid battery (VRLA) with 12 Volt nominal voltage and 18 Ah capacity. This battery has been specially developed for demanding cyclic use, where regular and deep discharge is the norm. Equipped with sturdy, maintenance-free AGM technology, it is the ideal energy source for mobile applications in rehabilitation technology, for electric vehicles or for leisure use.Highlights at a GlanceHigh cycle stability: Designed for a long service life during repeated, deep discharge and recharging.Strong capacity: 18 Ah at 12 V for enduring and reliable energy supply for mobile consumers.Maintenance-free AGM technology: The advanced AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) technology ensures a leak-proof and maintenance-free operation.High power density: Offers a lot of energy in a compact and widely used housing format.Flexible mounting: Operation possible in all positions, except for permanent upside-down use.Low self-discharge: Enables longer shelf life with no significant capacity loss. Strong Performance for Cyclical ApplicationsThe Vision CP12180DX reliably delivers a capacity of 18 Ah with a 20-hour discharge. Its construction is specifically designed for cyclic operation, which gives it high resistance to the stresses of constant charging and discharging. This makes it the perfect choice for electric wheelchairs, golf caddies, e-scooters and other electric vehicles where maximum cycle life and reliability are important.Robust Technology for Demanding EnvironmentsThanks to the VRLA technology (Valve Regulated Lead Acid) in conjunction with the AGM system, where the electrolyte is safely held in a glass fibre mat, the CP12180DX is fully sealed, leak-proof and vibration-resistant. The low internal resistance allows efficient energy delivery even at higher currents. The housing made from robust ABS plastic reliably protects the internal components from mechanical loads in daily mobile use and ensures a long, safe service life.Properties ModelVision CP12180DX Cyclic Battery typeVRLA AGM (cycle-proof) Nominal voltage (V)12 Capacity (Ah)18 (at 20h rate) Maximum discharge current270A (for 5 seconds) Charging voltage (float charging)13.5V - 13.8V Charging voltage (cyclic operation)14.4V - 15.0V Operating temperature (°C)Charge: 0 ~ 40 / Discharge: -20 ~ 50 Storage temperature (°C)-20 ~ 40 Service lifeapprox. 1800 cycles at 30% depth of discharge Dimensions (L/W/H, mm)181 x 77 x 167 Weight (kg)approx. 5.5 ConnectionM5 screw terminal CertificationsISO9001, ISO14001, CE, UL FAQs about the Vision CP12180DX Lead-Acid BatteryFor which applications is the CP12180DX suitable?The battery is ideally suited for a wide variety of demanding cyclic applications:Electric wheelchairs, mobility scooters and scootersGolf caddies and other lightweight electric vehiclesMedical devices such as patient liftsMobile cleaning machinesApplications in marine and camping areasIs the battery maintenance-free?Yes, thanks to the sealed AGM technology, the battery is completely maintenance-free.
