Description
The NITECORE HC68 is now upgraded as the High Performance Dual Beam E-focus Headlamp. It is available with one hand adjustable spotlight/floodlight stepless adjustment, providing a professional and precise way of controlling the output ratio. A perfect combination of 2 x Luminus SST-40-W LEDs and a precisely calculated TIR lens system ensures efficient light transmission with outstanding adaptability and stability.
The unibody TIR lens system is available to reflect uniform and soft light with ultra thin and lightweight body. The efficient max output of 2,000 lumens can be directly activated to light up the darkness. Utilizing a Luminus SST-40-W LED and the TIR optic lens specially designed for long range lighting, it provides blazing spotlight of 1,800 lumens with a max throw of 202 meters and a max peak beam intensity of 10,300cd, ideal for caving, searching, rescuing, outdoor activities and more. Specially designed for industrial maintenance, the wide range floodlight offers an ultra smooth flood beam of 1,400 lumens. The equipped auxiliary red light can effectively protect the night vision. It is ideal for wildlife observation, stargazing, emergency response and night photography.
The concealed USB-C charging port is effectively protected against the complex outdoor environment. It can automatically cease the charging process upon completion to protect the battery and the headlamp. A high capacity NL1835HP 18650 Li-ion battery (3,500mAh) is included with a max runtime of 800 hours and it is also compatible with 2 x CR123/RCR123 batteries.
Constructed from aero grade aluminum alloy with outstanding thermal conduction, it is guaranteed with excellent heat dissipation performance to protect the internal parts. The integrated ATR technology regulates the output according to the working condition and ambient environment to maintain the optimal performance.
As a simulation of the natural sunlight, the floodlight of the HC68 offers an unprecedented illumination experience. The TIR Lens System is precisely calculated to provide an ultra wide angle of 150° and a consistent illuminance in order to eliminate the central hotspot. It greatly eases the visual fatigue and is perfect for night trekking, industrial maintenance, circuit checking, and more. Combined with a user-friendly 3 buttons interface, the 180° all-round adjustable mechanism ensures no blind spots in the outdoor environment. An elastic and breathable headband is included with silicone sweat diverting strip. The silicone strip hidden in the headband can divert sweat to the sides of head, preventing irritation on the eyes that caused by sweat ingression, while avoiding sliding of the headband. The newly designed rubber pad ensures perfect fit to the back side of the head with upgraded comfort.
The body is ultra compact and lightweight with 118.5g (4.18oz) (bracket and headband included, and battery not included). Constructed from aero grade aluminum alloy with HA III military grade hard-anodized finish, the HC68 is rigid and durable, specially designed for outdoor activities. It is all weather applicable as IP68 rated (2m waterproof and submersible) and 2m impact resistant.
