The TIKKA® CORE is a rechargeable, compact, and easy-to-use headlamp that delivers 450 lumens of bright, uniform, and comfortable lighting. Designed to accompany you on all your nighttime outdoor adventures—whether hiking, navigating around camp, or traveling—it offers reliable illumination in a lightweight design weighing only 84 grams. Thanks to its integrated phosphorescent reflector, the lamp is easy to locate in the dark. The red lighting option helps preserve night vision and prevents blinding others, while the reflective headband enhances your visibility in low-light conditions.
This headlamp features a wide, uniform beam that provides excellent proximity lighting, allowing you to clearly see up close or at your feet. You can select between three white lighting levels—MAX BURN TIME, STANDARD (offering a balance between power and battery life), and MAX POWER—to suit your needs. Additionally, continuous red lighting helps maintain night vision, and a strobe mode can be used to signal your location in emergencies.
Operation is simple with a single button that quickly toggles brightness and light color. The lamp’s plate allows you to tilt the beam up or down for better vision. A battery charge indicator displays the remaining battery level each time you turn the lamp on or off. The TIKKA® CORE is rechargeable via a type B micro USB port, and its CORE rechargeable battery offers the environmental benefit of lasting as long as 900 standard batteries.
Built for convenience, the headlamp includes a LOCK function to prevent accidental activation during transit or storage. Its detachable and washable symmetrical headband ensures a comfortable, adjustable fit. The HYBRID CONCEPT design means the TIKKA® CORE comes with the CORE rechargeable battery but also works with three AAA/LR03 standard batteries (not included), automatically detecting the power source and adjusting lighting performance accordingly. A storage pouch allows the headlamp to be transformed into a lantern, and it is compatible with HELMET ADAPT and BIKE ADAPT 2 mounts, making it easy to attach to various helmets or bicycles.
Specifications include 450 lumens of brightness (ANSI/PLATO FL 1), an 84-gram weight, a wide beam pattern, and a 1250 mAh CORE rechargeable battery with a charging time of 3.5 hours. The lamp is compatible with alkaline, lithium, or Ni-MH rechargeable batteries. Note that this lamp is not certified for road use and should not replace required standardized lights in traffic areas.
