The Nitecore NU05 V2 is a compact and versatile quad LED signal light designed for safety, convenience, and performance in a lightweight package. Equipped with two bright white LEDs and two red LEDs, it offers multiple lighting modes to suit different conditions. The white LEDs can output up to 40 lumens in either constant-on mode for use as a flashlight or headlamp, or in flashing mode as a signal light. The red LEDs provide slow or fast flashing options, making them ideal for visibility and safety during nighttime activities like walking, running, jogging, or biking.
Despite its ultra-mini design—measuring just 1.16 inches on each side and weighing only 0.39 ounces—the NU05 V2 packs a surprising punch. It attaches securely using its sturdy rear clip, allowing you to mount it on backpacks, caps, belts, pet collars, or use it with the included strap as a headlamp or wrist light. This makes it an ideal companion for a wide range of applications from personal visibility to outdoor adventures and emergency use.
The NU05 V2 features a built-in USB-C port for fast and efficient recharging, and it now includes a larger battery capable of delivering up to 47 hours of runtime on a full charge. A battery indicator is conveniently integrated and can be activated with a single press to show the remaining charge level.
For those who prefer customizing their setup, the NU05 V2 is also available as a standalone unit. This economical version is perfect for users who plan to attach the light to MOLLE systems, use zip ties, paracord, or other gear-specific mounting solutions.
With its IP66 water-resistant rating, 1-meter impact resistance, and multiple lighting configurations, the NU05 V2 is a dependable and practical safety light for urban and outdoor environments alike.
