Review: My ex recommended Petzl and I admit that he was right - 2024 Update: My first Actik is still going strong, still feels great compared to my blocky somewhat uncomfortable black diamonds, and the battery is still in great shape. I’m back looking for another1st gen for my travel kit (I would have liked one when I went caving earlier this year). Looks like reviews on the newer 600 lumen edition are terrible. 2019 Review: My ex recommended Petzl. I was tempted to get a Black Diamond Storm to be contrary AND because it was cheaper AND it had great reviews AND I’m not into Mega Xtreme Hard Core Sports (!) that require a top of the line headlamp. But I ceded and bought the more expensive Actik Core model solely because it was rechargeable. Man, two things immediately happened: (1) I had to admit he was right, and (2) he was jealous of my really nice headlamp. It’s brighter than the moon, has great battery life and the rechargeable mode is worth every extra penny. It sounds dumb but when stuff runs out of batteries, sometimes I just go “eh” and walk away, because hunting down esoteric or relatively heavy batteries is enough of an excuse to dissuade me from whatever horrible task that would have required me to wear a headlamp, e.g., crawling through a hazing line of attic-dwelling spiders to put down insulation during the only hours of the day when the attic isn’t 108-degrees (in the summer). oh no, the headlamp batteries are out? Boy, TV sounds like a great option right now. But with the Petzl, I just plug it in, easy peasy lemon squeezy. And then I do the task the next day. The modes (like red light) are unexpectedly useful for when I’m sneaking through my backyard at night to do the chores I didn’t manage to do in the daytime while trying not to alarm the neighbors (washing out the birdbath at 1 AM), or digging around in my poorly lit crawlspace (where’s that angel food cake pan that I use once every two years?). I reach for my Actik Core way more often than anticipated and in three months, it has earned a dedicated place in my “most used” stuff drawer, replacing even most of my flashlights because it’s so small and accessible, and I never misplace it (again, unlike my flashlights - of which, I have three, and I have no idea where they are, but I always know where my Petzl is). Cons: Getting the headband off of this model was so difficult that I gave up. It’s partially forever unclean now and I’m making peace with that. Would absolutely buy again. Even if it might be overkill for a weenie homeowner that just wants a convenient hands-free light, it’s a great headlamp. Review: Seems legit - On initial inspection it seems excellent. I will update after more testing but out of the box it looks like exactly what I wanted. The bright setting is very bright , looks clear as day 40 ft out. The dim setting is very similar to my black diamond iota in intensity (100 lumens I think) ; seems fine for in the tent or small tasks but lacks brightness when trying to see outside your immediate area . I like the build , the battery pack has a light on it that lets you know when it's charged , and there's no adapter. You just plug the battery straight into a normal samsung charger . The fact that it also works with normal AAAs is comforting as well. Again, I'll update if/when things change but out of the box it seems totally legit . So far, favorite rechargeable headlamp, if expensive. Update: had it a while now and it still puts other lamps to shame. Great design, bright as heck . Would buy again. ## Features - HAVE A LIT ADVENTURE: The powerful and lightweight ACTIK CORE is built for mountaineering, running, cycling, hiking, and backpacking. - BRILLIANT BEAMS: Features two beam patterns (wide and mixed) to meet your need for high-performance lighting for outdoor activities. - TURN YOUR BRIGHTS DOWN: The red lighting preserves night vision and prevents blinding other members of the group. - NEVER GET CAUGHT IN THE DARK: Featuring a max autonomy burn time of 160 hours and a max power of 350 lumens. - GET RECHARGED: Every ACTIK CORE comes with a CORE rechargeable battery that charges via micro USB port, and is also compatible with AAA batteries. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01KYTS1CU | | Additional Features | Lightweight, Rechargeable | | Batteries are Included | No | | Battery Description | AAA | | Battery Type | Lithium Ion | | Best Sellers Rank | #297,939 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) #995 in Camping Headlamps | | Brand Name | PETZL | | Color | Red | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (3,885) | | Finish Types | Red | | Global Trade Identification Number | 03342540815544 | | Included Components | Battery, Head Band | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 4.72"D x 0.39"W x 4.72"H | | Item Type Name | Headlamp, 350 Lumens, Rechargeable, with CORE Battery | | Item Weight | 0.1 Kilograms | | Light Source Special Features | Red Lighting, Emergency Whistle | | Light Source Type | LED | | Manufacturer | Petzl | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | Manufacturer warranty. | | Material Type | Plastic | | Model Number | E99ABB | | Number of Batteries | 1 Lithium Polymer batteries required. | | Number of Light Sources | 1 | | Power Source | Battery Powered | | Runtime | 160 hours | | Shape | Cylindrical | | Style Name | Headlamp | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Voltage | 3.6 Volts | | Water Resistance Level | Water Resistant | | White Brightness | 350 Lumens | ## Product Details - **Color:** Red - **Light Source Type:** LED - **Material:** Plastic - **Power Source:** Battery Powered - **Special Feature:** Lightweight, Rechargeable ## Images ![ACTIK CORE Headlamp - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71s8oe9CiZL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My ex recommended Petzl and I admit that he was right *by J***E on October 18, 2019* 2024 Update: My first Actik is still going strong, still feels great compared to my blocky somewhat uncomfortable black diamonds, and the battery is still in great shape.

Petzl lights cost more because they are better lights. They are not a bright as some others, they don't (yet, AFAIK) have one that uses 18650 (super high capacity rechargable lithium cells) batteries, but if you need to bring a light because your life might depend on being able to self-rescue after dark, find your way up a glacier, etc. its what you want. This one is small enough to replace the crappy little CR2302 head light I used to carry "just in case". While a second battery is pricy, it has been very hepful as there is very little warning when this light is about to run down. You still get light on the lowest setting for quite some time, but if you are trying to find your way to the next set of rapel anchors after dark it really could use a little more "heads up" notice. The battery pack is super easy to charge via USB and has a LED charge level indicator. I also keep 3 AAA lithium batteries sealed in a ziplock "just in case" which is a great option not all rechargable lights give you. Climbers, spelunkers, EMS, and SAR personnel depend on Petzl lights, helmets, etc. for cause. ## Frequently Bought Together - PETZL - ACTIK CORE Headlamp - Petzl ACCU CORE - Rechargeable Battery Compatible With Petzl Headlamps - Petzl NOCTILIGHT Headlamp Case - Protective Carrying Case for Compact Petzl Headlamps That Diffuses Light Into Lantern Mode --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pe/products/41774563-actik-core-headlamp](https://www.desertcart.pe/products/41774563-actik-core-headlamp) --- *Product available on Desertcart Peru* *Store origin: PE* *Last updated: 2026-05-22*
