The Nitecore HC60 V2 headlamp takes everything that made the original HC60 great and improves upon it. Its maximum output has been boosted to 1200 lumens, providing a bright beam that can reach up to 142 yards. The headlamp features a wide 100-degree flood beam that covers your entire field of vision, making it perfect for a variety of outdoor activities such as camping, running, hunting, trekking, and biking. Whether you're exploring trails or working in low-light environments, the HC60 V2 delivers reliable and powerful illumination.
This headlamp is available in two LED tint options: White Light and Neutral White. The white light version enhances contrast and clarity, illuminating every detail with sharp brightness, ideal for spotting fine details in nature. The neutral white variant offers a color temperature between 4000 and 5000K with a high color rendering index (CRI) above 80%, reducing eye strain while preserving the natural colors of terrain and foliage. Additionally, the neutral white light performs better in fog and rain, providing improved visibility in adverse weather conditions.
Equipped with a high-capacity 3400mAh 18650 battery, the HC60 V2 offers an exceptional runtime of up to 680 hours on the ultra-low setting. Charging has been upgraded with a convenient USB-C port, allowing for faster recharge times. A blue LED indicator located beneath the power switch clearly shows both charging status and remaining battery power, ensuring you stay informed about your headlamp’s readiness.
The HC60 V2 is designed for ease of use with a simple single-button interface. You can power it on or off by long-pressing the switch, and while it’s on, short presses cycle through five brightness levels and three special auxiliary modes. The headlamp also memorizes the last brightness setting used, so it automatically returns to your preferred level each time you turn it on. Comfort during extended wear is a priority—this model includes an adjustable headband with a secure rubber pad at the back and a silicone grip strip, preventing slippage and providing a stable, comfortable fit.
Built tough, the HC60 V2 is constructed from durable aluminum alloy and carries an IPX7 waterproof rating, making it resistant to water immersion up to 1 meter. This rugged build ensures it can withstand harsh environments, from rainy trails to rugged work sites. The headlamp’s 180-degree vertical tilt feature allows you to adjust the beam angle to suit your needs, preventing dark spots and enhancing visibility exactly where you need it.
Overall, the Nitecore HC60 V2 is a high-quality, versatile headlamp offering powerful illumination, smart features, and long-lasting comfort. It’s a reliable companion for outdoor enthusiasts, professionals, and anyone needing bright, consistent light in demanding conditions. The package includes the HC60 V2 headlamp, two 3400mAh NL1834 batteries, a USB-C charging cable, an adjustable headband, and a LumenTac organizer, ensuring you have everything necessary to get started right away.
