- RELIABLE PERFORMANCE: With Petzl’s 50:50 Brightness-to-Burn-Time ratio, your Petzl headlamp will retain 50% of its original brightness halfway through the Burn-Time, rather than the 20-30% brightness you get in other brands.
- HYBRID CONCEPT: Petzl headlamps can run on either the CORE rechargeable battery or three AAA batteries without an adapter.
- FULL TILT: Petzl headlamps can be tilted up or down — allowing users to illuminate their surroundings while wearing the headlamp on their head or neck.
- EASE OF USE: Battery indicator shows the battery level each time lamp is turned on or off. Glow-in-the-dark reflector for locating the lamp in the dark. Rechargeable via micro USB port when using with CORE battery.
- LOCK FUNCTION: Prevents headlamp from accidentally turning on and draining the battery when not in use.

I’ve owned quite a few headlamps over the years and this one is at the top. It has a really cool green halo that glows even after the lamp has been shut off. Super cool feature. And for only being 300 lumens, the brightness is pretty impressive.

Update: May 2021 – due to the loss of my headlamp, I am back in the market to replace this model previously reviewed. Over the much longer time of ownership vs. my initial review – I will be buying another one (actually 2) of the same. It has been a pleasure to own, it’s held up very well, battery life was great. At this price, it’s a no brainer and I am going straight back to another one due to it’s performance.
My wife ordered this for me, at my request for needing a new headlamp. I am one of those who does a lot of research and in the past, have paid many times this amount for my lightweight headlamps – which I love and use often for many tasks.
I was hesitant to suggest a headlamp to my wife for a Birthday gift. Initially, having heard she found a great deal for only $30, I was highly suspect as to performance and quality.
It’s only been a month and have used it maybe 4-5 times for short chores (like putting the boat covers on in the dark, at night), cooking on the grille, installing a device in a small dark area, etc. .
The light is bright, quite bright on the high setting. That said, it does not carry too far and doesn’t cast too wide of a area, making it suitable for closer vision needs – camp site, dark work, etc. . . I don’t know whether I would be comfortable mountain biking in darker conditions with it, as a result of the lack of carry ad broadness of the beam.
So far, after probably the equivalent of 2 hours of use, the batteries still seem to be at full strength and full light emittance.
I cannot say how long it will last or how durable it is. My current other headlamps range from 5 to 10 years old and both are starting to fail – bulbs and switches, hence the desire for a new one. But if this light lasts 3-5 years I would consider it a very good deal. I like it enough that I was actually considering ordering another one, due to it’s very low price and usable qualities.
At this price, I would highly recommend it based upon my initial usage.

O produto tem um bom custo-benefício. Recomendo a compra para diferentes contextos, desde uso em acampamento até o uso em casa, em condições de falta de luz.

The brightness is great and the availability of multiple levels and red light make it very useful for a variety of uses.
The ability to angle the light down is also nice to light up the path in front of me.
This is my second Tikka… the first was misplaced. I have had a couple of other cheaper headlamps, but they were not in the same league.

I researched headlamps for weeks in search of quality and affordability, this one was right on the nose. It’s lightweight, tough, three light settings of brightness. The brightest setting 350 lumens is super bright. Excellent lighting for automotive detailing interiors. Love it.
Update Sept 20: Still works perfectly and has not failed me once.

This is my second Petzl headlamp, replacing my first one I had for seven years. So happy with the continued quality and fit. Do yourself a favor and purchase the rechargeable battery pack if you use this for running, it can eat up power.

This small headlamp has three light intensities. The lowest intensity will make it last the longest and is perfect for finding your way on a dark night. The highest intensity is great for finding something in the dark that you may have dropped. I’m very happy with this purchase.

This is my second Petzl Tikka headlamp purchase. I bought the original model about twenty years ago and used it extensively on multiple wilderness trips and almost daily for walking the dog in an unlighted neighborhood. The original lamp is still going strong, although its headband has lost its elasticity. Since I couldn’t replace the headband easily, I opted for a new Tikka. The new one has plenty of light on the medium and high settings, and there is ample illumination on red to allow for safe walking in the dark without losing night vision. The newer version lacks the option of a narrow beam, and a beam diffuser; however, I don’t miss the narrow beam as the current version has enough lumens to make the narrower beam unnecessary. The low setting is just right for reading.
I bought the optional rechargeable battery pack and am very happy with it. I’ve used it for 3 weeks without a recharge when using it nightly on the medium setting for about 15 minutes.
The one thing I would change is to make the headband replaceable and detachable for cleaning. Altogether, this is an excellent and durable product.

Great little light, bright, comfortable wear, three brightness levels, and a glow ring around the light that proves very helpful when locating the light in the dark (after use) and illuminating things near.
