    This is a redesign of one of my favorite lights. It’s superlight, extra-small, waterproof to 1m, and the lithium batteries last a long time in an emergency kit.

    If you own any of the previous models, be aware that the not only has the headband/storage case changed back from the retractable headband to the red plastic case but that the cluster of LEDs has been replaced by a single white LED and an offset red LED.

    The new LEDs have different run stats, as well. This newest version has lower runtimes and higher lumens. The white light is “cooler” (closer to the blue end of the spectrum) and the beam has a shorter range, but a higher flood, than the previous models.

    This is the third generation of the product that I own. I carry the previous version with me in my backpack everywhere as it offers more quick convenience. This one will stay in my emergency kit to be used as necessary as it is a bit of a pain to remove/replace the light in the case.

    While not as convenient as the retractable headband in the previous model it is definitely more comfortable to wear.

    I have not, yet, been able to successfully store this in the included case without separating the headband from the light body (because I don’t want to stretch out the headband prematurely). This is the reason why it got four stars from me, instead of five.

    I’ve attached some pics for the first time every so I don’t know if I’ll be able to caption them. Previous version on the left and the new version is on the right. First pic light pic is of a cereal box appx 18″ away. Second pic of white wall appx 15′ away.

    edit: After using the 2017 version of this light for the last week I can confidently say that, while good, I prefer the previous version of this light. The more focused beam of the older model suits my needs better (even if the lumens are lower) as the beam travels further with a more neutral tone. It is also easier to distinguish color. The headband of the newer version is far more comfortable, though.

    If Petzl ever reads this, I’d like to recommend a revival of the metal clip (so you can affix the light to a cap or strap) that existed in the last, last version of this light.

    Great little headlamp for emergency purposes or when you only need low light, yet bright enough to hike in the dark. Priced right too, for a Petzel.

    Buena iluminación ligero ajuste bueno en la cabeza se puede correr si que se mueva lo esperado de la marca

  4. Cliffy15

    The best feature of this headlamp is its size. It’s very compact and lightweight. I keep one in my 10-essentials bag for dayhikes and in my get home bag. I wouldn’t use it for hiking after dark except in an emergency, but it would get you out of a bind and would be helpful for signaling at night.

  5. Craig T. Biehle

    Ultra small and lightweight, this is the ideal headlamp for backpacking. Fits in your pocket or attach the carrying case to your belt. I took this to New Mexico for 12 days in the mountains and never ran out of battery.

    This product is great little headlamp and perfect for my minimalist kit that I can grab-n-go. It requires a battery and I am not sure how long it will really last

    👍 LO QUE MÁS ME HA GUSTADO:

    + Ultra compacta y ligera ➤ La e+LITE es extremadamente compacta y ligera, ideal para llevar en cualquier kit de emergencia o para actividades al aire libre donde cada gramo cuenta. Su diseño me ha permitido llevarla en todas mis aventuras sin sentirme sobrecargado.

    + Versatilidad de modos de iluminación ➤ La variedad de modos de iluminación, incluyendo luz blanca, luz roja y señal de emergencia, es muy útil en diferentes situaciones. La he encontrado particularmente valiosa durante mis campamentos y caminatas nocturnas.

    👎 LO QUE MENOS ME HA GUSTADO:

    – Durabilidad y resistencia ➤ Aunque en general la linterna es bastante práctica, tengo algunas dudas sobre su durabilidad a largo plazo, especialmente en condiciones extremas. La articulación de la banda para la cabeza parece ser un punto débil potencial.

    – Intensidad de la luz ➤ Para tareas específicas que requieren una iluminación intensa, la e+LITE puede quedarse un poco corta. Es perfecta como luz de emergencia o para tareas básicas de campamento, pero no sustituye a una linterna frontal más potente para actividades técnicas.

    💡 CONCLUSIÓN:

    La “PETZL – Linterna e+LITE” es una opción excelente como linterna de emergencia o para actividades ligeras al aire libre gracias a su tamaño compacto y ligereza. Aunque es increíblemente conveniente para llevar a cualquier parte, aquellos que necesiten una iluminación más intensa o robustez para actividades extremas podrían considerar modelos adicionales o complementarios. En general, recomiendo la e+LITE para cualquier persona que busque una linterna pequeña, confiable y versátil para agregar a su equipo de aventura o kit de emergencia. ​

    I just got this lamp, so I can’t possibly report on battery life or long term durability. But I can tell you why I instantly fell in love with this thing!

    REASON FOR PURCHASE: For exactly what it is – an emergency back-up light source.

    ACTIVITY: Casual backpacking – never on trail after dark

    My primary light source is a rechargeable Fenix headlamp, which has more than enough burn time to get me through a multi-day backpacking trip. However, I was still carrying a spare charged battery just in case…

    …That spare battery weighs 0.7 oz. It has no other function. Just hangs out….

    This E+lite, on the other hand, only weighs 0.9 oz. (without the case). AND it can actually DO stuff!

    *It’s a stand alone spare lamp. And it even has a fold out stand if you like.

    *It has safety strobe modes in both white and red (which my primary lamp does not).

    *AND it has a whistle! A whistle that is smaller, louder, and clearer than the 0.3 oz whistle I was already carrying on my pack. And if you’ll notice, the red slider button on the whistle is actually a key that opens the battery compartment! Are you “blown away” yet?

    *By golly, you could probably even use the headband to hog tie a chipmunk or something! The possibilities are endless!

    From now on I’ll be leaving that free-loading spare battery at home… It was sorta’ needy anyway…always getting recharged before each trip… Nagging me… It won’t be lonely though, it can hang out with my retired old weak whistle, and their new friend, the Petzl case. Now the case is clever in it’s own way. It has a handy belt loop, even sports a cute illustration of how to signal SOS or OK. It weighs 0.7 oz. I’ll keep it for kayak camping some day. As the lid is held on tightly with a rubber band, so it’s splash proof. But it won’t be necessary for storing the lamp in a handy spot in my pack, as the included lamp stand is also made to fold over and protect the face of the lamp.

    A great deal of thought and detail went into this little lamp. The switch, while different, is easy to operate. Of course it is not super bright, but it’s not made for trail finding or shining deer. It’s a very adequate SPARE. And the use of pill batteries means it has a long shelf life and it can LIVE in my pack without worry of it leaking battery acid. Always packed and ready to go, and looking out for me in case one day I forget to recharge my regular lamp before a trip, or even forget to pack it!

    I ordered this as I’m putting together a kit that’s lighter than my current kit. My health is fading and I still want to go outside. It comes in a nice case. It’s brighter than expected and has a lot of settings. It’s a Petzl so I know it’s good quality. Batteries are easily replaceable and you can find the button batteries almost everywhere. I’ve used it on a few overnights and it’s still working on the batteries that came in it. I ain’t got no problem recommending this little light to everyone.

    Die kleine Stirnlampe kam mittlerweile bei mehreren Ausflügen zum Einsatz. Das Funktionsrepertoire ist wirklich umfangreich: von weißem bis rotem Licht bis zum Flackern ist alles dabei. Als Zusatz gibt’s noch die kleine Trillerpfeife obendrauf. Und das Ganze mit kleinstem Gewicht. Ein super Tool für jede (Rucksack-)Tour!
