The Nitecore HC65 is a full metal, rechargeable headlamp, ideal for camping, hiking and outdoor tactical use. It features three distinct output colours and four special modes: location beacon, SOS, strobe, and red caution light. The HC65 runs on a single 18650 or two CR13A batteries, and the built-in charging port allows you to quickly and easily repower your headlamp in between use. With a 50,000 hour lifespan, 110 meter beam distance, and 1000 lumen max output, the HC65 is hands down one of the best hands-free flashlights available.
