The Tactikka is "the" model from Petzl when you´re looking for a really dependable basic headlamp. The Tactikka has over the years earned a solid reputation among demanding user groups, including soldiers who are notoriously hard on their gear. Max power 300 lm!
A lack of bulk and a single strap means you don't have to get involved to get the light running. Just put it on your head and press the button and you have light. Adjustable up and down.
The button is recessed but large enough to be used with gloves on.
Three white modes with a wide, smooth beam. One steady red and a blinking red. Toggle between modes with repeated presses, toggle between colors with a long press. Once the light has been on for a few seconds, it turns off with a single press - easy!
The light turns on with the color you last used, but always at the lowest setting.
Mode | Output | Beam Distance | Burn time |

Medium | 100 lm | 40 m | 9 h |
High | 300 lm | 65 m | 2 h |
Red blinking visible out to 700 metres for 400 hours.
