The IKO® CORE rechargeable headlamp offers a perfect blend of lightweight design and advanced technology, delivering 500 lumens while weighing only 79 grams. Featuring the patented AIRFIT® headband, this headlamp combines an ultra-thin lamp body with an energy source positioned at the rear of the head, ensuring a well-balanced and comfortable fit that feels almost imperceptible during use. Its versatile design allows it to be worn on the head, around the neck, or transformed into a lantern using the included storage pouch. Additionally, the headlamp can fold flat for easy packing, making it an ideal companion for a wide range of outdoor activities. Built with the HYBRID CONCEPT, the IKO® CORE is supplied with a rechargeable CORE battery but also supports three standard AAA/LR03 batteries (not included), automatically adjusting its performance depending on the power source.
Designed for maximum comfort and practicality, the AIRFIT® headband is semi-rigid and streamlined, minimizing contact with the skin while improving airflow to reduce sweat during dynamic activities. It is water-repellent to resist rain and moisture, and features quick and easy rear adjustment to ensure a secure fit. The placement of the battery pack at the back evenly distributes weight across the head, enhancing balance and comfort even on long outings.
The IKO® CORE offers optimal visual comfort with multiple LEDs that provide smooth and uniform light distribution. Users can choose between two beam patterns—wide or mixed—to suit proximity lighting, movement, or long-distance vision. A single button allows quick access to three different white light levels to accommodate various needs. Thanks to the rechargeable CORE battery, which charges via a convenient micro USB port, this headlamp combines power with eco-consciousness: the CORE battery’s lifespan is equivalent to that of 900 standard batteries, significantly reducing environmental impact.
This headlamp is highly versatile and easy to use. It can be worn in multiple ways depending on the activity, including on the head, around the neck, or placed on surfaces such as tables or tent poles. The included storage pouch enables transformation into a lantern, while reflective elements on the rear enhance nighttime visibility. A battery charge indicator provides clear information on remaining power each time the lamp is switched on or off. The IKO® CORE also includes two LOCK functions to prevent accidental activation during transit or storage. Its minimalist, fold-flat design allows for compact storage and easy transport. For added compatibility, it fits all Petzl helmets and is weather-resistant with an IPX4 rating.
Specifications include 500 lumens of brightness, a weight of 79 grams, wide or mixed beam patterns, and a 1250 mAh CORE rechargeable battery with a charging time of 3.5 hours. The headlamp is compatible with alkaline, lithium, or Ni-MH rechargeable batteries and is designed to withstand weather conditions with its IPX4 water resistance.
