The flashlight is small and practical for everyday use, hiking, and working in low light. It emits 220 lumens, which is more than enough for typical activities – you can easily light up the road, the inside of a tent, or your workspace. The headband is comfortable, doesn’t squeeze, and is easy to adjust. The device is lightweight and almost unnoticeable even when worn for a long time. Operation is intuitive, and switching modes is easy. It’s a very functional device for this price. The downside is its limited brightness when lighting larger distances or when used as a search flashlight.

Of the four modes of white light, I mostly used the first one. On the plus side, the red light is not particularly powerful, but it gets the job done. Battery life with occasional use is absolutely fine.
-
Weak battery and short lighting time. After 3 years of infrequent use, the headlamp broke down and won't charge. The quality fails, I don't recommend this model to anyone.
-
I needed a headlamp with a red light because I wanted something for night walks through the forest so as not to alarm the animals I photograph at dawn. It works very well. The ability to turn it on/off with a hand turned out to be an amazing function (which I hadn't even thought about when deciding to buy) - especially in winter, when you have thick gloves on your hands that make operating buttons practically impossible. The strap holds well, but at the same time doesn't press too much.
-
Very good headlamp! And what I like the most about it is the strap – it's solid and doesn't "pop out" of the mounting when I want to adjust the headlamp left or right. Most importantly, the headlamp has many modes with 2 red modes, which allows you to be more "invisible" in the forest. I recommend it.
-
The battery lasts less than stated in the specifications. It's made a bit too cheaply. Overall, it does its job and works as it should, shines on your forehead :) Worth its price.
-
For this money, it's fantastic. Small, light, has a red light, and very useful gesture control. The battery is small, so it might not be enough for a winter night. As a backup flashlight, it's great.
-
As always, lightning-fast delivery, even before the holidays. For this price it's worth it, super cool motion sensor function and charging the battery via USB. I recommend it.
-
For this price I don't see a better option. The motion sensor makes work much easier when your hands are occupied. The battery lasts all night, of course not if it's on all the time. I recommend it.
-
A very good headlamp at this price, gesture control is a plus. It shines well in all modes, the gesture control works as it should. Light, handy, has a battery charge indicator.
-
I approach this company with caution, but so far the flashlight is doing well. It comes already partially charged. Several modes that most people will appreciate. A good option for turning it on without pressing. A cool gadget for night excavations with a detector.
-
Great for the price. Contrary to some opinions, mine came charged, just needed to be topped up. Big plus for gesture control – I didn’t expect such a feature at this price. I recommend it, tested in tactical conditions. Worth buying.
-
The headlamp arrived discharged, although the manual says the battery should be partially charged - probably due to the weather conditions (order fulfilled in January). Other than that, I have no complaints, it shines well in all modes, gesture control works as it should, the tilt angle is good for me, the strap does not squeeze. You can order with confidence.
-
Apart from the fact that it arrived completely discharged, it charged without any problem. It shines a bit shorter than the manufacturer claims in the specs, but that's usually the norm in descriptions. It shines brightly at all levels. Now, on the snow in the forest, everything looks really nice. Motion sensor and charge level are priceless.
