## Description

The NU25 is back lighter and more powerful than before with a dual beam spotlight and floodlight for a combined 400 lumen max that can reach out to 70 yards. Equipped with an upgraded unibody optical lens system switch freely between a primary spot LED, offering three brightness settings, to the flood LED for even wide illumination, ideal for close up tasks and reading. Alternatively, switch to the dual red auxiliary LEDs and protect your night vision or a long lasting signal light. The lightweight NU25 takes the center stage as Nitecore's new all-rounder headlamp for night running, outdoor adventures, or camping. The NU25 has a built-in 650mAh rechargeable battery that can achieve a maximum runtime of 45 hours on its lowest setting. Now with an integrated USB-C port the NU25 fast charges to full in only one and a half hours. A power indicator tells you when it's time to charge while lockout mode prevents accidental activation. The intuitive dual button interface puts the controls right at your fingertips so you have more time to enjoy the surroundings. Ready for the outdoors? The NU25 is rated IP66 water resistant, features a bold new aerodynamic unibody design that efficiently dissipates heat and looks stylish to boot. Instead of traditional headband, it comes with a pair of paracord.

Review: I've had this headlamp for about a month now. It's a solid little piece of gear - I think the battery claims listed on Nitecore's website might be a bit generous; 40 minutes seems to be the runtime at the highest setting. It's also worth noting that due to overheating the headlamp will not remain at its 400 lumen mode - it'll stay there for about a minute before slowly reducing its output. It's still plenty bright - and realistically you'll be using either flood or spotlights interchangeably, as there's not much reason to have them both on at the same time. As far as the red light goes - it's actually a bit too bright in my opinion. It's actually bright enough to hike by on a moonless night - not quickly, and I wouldn't trust it in difficult terrain, but on a flat trail you could absolutely hike using the red light. Overall I'm quite satisfied with this headlamp. It's lightweight, functional (even has an SOS strobe built in, though I hope I'll never use that), and contrary to what many other folks claim has quiteintuitive controls for being a two-button device.
Review: Have used this headlamp for 10+ sunrise hikes and some late night hikes so far. The dimmer white light setting is enough for myself when hiking, and bumping up to a brighter setting one or two other people can get by from my headlamp. The buttons take a little getting used to but work very well and once you learn what they do, are quick to use. Battery life is good but I would recharge it after hikes. Great value for the price since its an affordable unit. Very light as well

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Did they really get rid of the dual brightness red setting?!**
A: Yes. They got rid of the low white and the low red! Say goodbye to your night vision if you turn either one on.

**Q: Is the head band stretchy or rigid?**
A: The band stretches enough to the point where if you have a it a little it will not fall off. It is very comfortable in the head and extremely light. You can also use it with a baseball cap

**Q: can you tilt the light ?**
A: yes, you can tilt it down.

**Q: Does this unit float? I take a bunch of kids fishing at night and need lamps that'll 1) float 2) small 3) bright**
A: It is small and bright, but I don't know if it will float.  I'm reluctant to find out.  I don't know if the charging port is waterproof.
