Nitecore HC60 Rechargeable Headlamp

Intense Illumination

The newest edition to Nitecore's impressive line of headlamps, the Nitecore HC60 Rechargeable Headlamp is a shining example of power and versatility. Powered by a single 18650 battery or a pair of CR123As and equipped with a sophisticated CREE XM-L2 U2 LED, this high performance headlamp produces a wide 100° beam of up to 1000 Lumens that will provide you with a fuller, more evenly-lit view at night. In addition to its highest output, the HC60 features 4 dimmer outputs ranging from 420 Lumens down to just 1 Lumen to suit a variety of lighting needs, as well as a trio of tactical outputs; a Strobe Mode for disorienting a target, a S.O.S. Mode for emergency situations, and a Location Beacon to mark your position. The head of the light can even be rotated 180 degrees vertically to allow for even more lighting angles and options.

Easy Operation

While its multitude of unique outputs may make it seem like a complicated device, the HC60 is incredibly easy to use. All 8 of its outputs are easily accessed and cycled through using the headlamp's straightforward single-button interface, which can be operated with just one hand, leaving an open hand for whatever task you may be tackling. Keeping the HC60 charged is equally as simple, as it is capable of being recharged internally via the light's micro-USB charging port, when equipped with an 18650, without removing the battery. Even the light's comfortable nylon headband is easy to adjust to nearly any head size, making it ready for any user!

Built To Last

Designed for extended outdoor use, the HC60 is ready to endure the wear and tear of the elements and frequent use. The headlamp's body is constructed from sturdy polycarbonate and hard-anodized aluminum, letting it withstand drops from as high as 1.5 meters and allowing it to be submerged under 2 meters of water with no damage. Internally, the light comes standard with Advanced Temperature Regulation (ATR) technology, which helps monitor the internal temperature and prevent it from overheating, as well as reverse polarity protection to protect both the headlamp and the battery. Brilliantly bright, remarkably rugged, and incredibly user-friendly, the Nitecore HC60 Rechargeable headlamp is the perfect light for any outdoor enthusiast!

headlight
I had a headlight from this company before and it was excellent. Lost it. Got a great deal on this one. I dont believe you can find a better headlight for the money. Dependable. Super super bright for quite a distance. My last light had a red light as well. I miss that. A lot. I used it at night for less bugs in farm. Stobe on this is serious... but button a little too tricky for personal defense. However it would be unbeatable for rescue needs. SOS and beacon awesome. you could see this light for miles, for hundreds of hours.
Prosrechargeable /SUPER bright, able to conserve batt. totally sealed. lights up everything within 50yds and able to see farther than that
Consno red light.

Great Headlamp
This headlamp is very light and does not have a battery pack on the back of it. It is bright and easy to adjust. The battery can be charged with a USB port. I would highly recommend this headlamp and I have had a lot of different ones.
ProsLightweight, battery is rechargeable and is bright
ConsNone

Best head lamp i have owned.
I like all the settings for brightness. There is a different setting that seems to work just right. If you need to light up your surrondings big time. It will definately do that also!!

The Best
I work on cars a lot and I've had about a dozen headlamps in my time. This is by far the best one. Being rechargeable makes it even more awesome. It's got the power when I need it and stays on my head when I'm under the car at all angles, unless my dog licks it off, but that's OK. The only problem is that my wife found it on my work bench and has been using it lately, so I'll probably have to get another one of these and hide it. Highly recommend this - from a headlight junkie.
ProsStays on my head Powerful Easy to turn on off and adjust Rechargable
ConsMy wife found it.

Very bright rechargeable light!
I use this as my daily early morning light when I walk my dog or go fishing and really like the rechargeable batteries and I rotate 6 of them so never buying new batteries and it very bright with a good spread of light!

Outstanding!
I've used headlamps for almost every manner of use...from hunting and hiking out of deep fly fishing spots here in the NC mountains, to performing minor surgery in my Family Practice clinic. This one is already decidedly a winner. The various brightness levels, long battery life, and an included 3400 mAhr 18650 is amazing. I've used a Fenix HP-11 for the last several years, with a Sure Fire diffuser...still cannot complain...however, it does not have the build-strength, the submersible rating, not the brightness of this unit. I am totally impressed.
ProsBuild strength, long battery life, high output, comfort.
ConsNothing. OK...some can whine about the switch placement...get over it. Just like anything...after you've used it a few times, it becomes natural.

Mite ore HC 60 rechargeable headlamp
Very nice headlamp long battery life at med level head strap very large had to make as small as possible fit but could be a little tighter. Had to return the first one I ordered didn't work properly. Return was simple and fast sent me a replacement as soon as they received the defective headlamp in all took less than a week Great Service
ProsBright long battery life comfortable
ConsHead strap very large if you have small head like me

I bought one of these and was thoroughly, pleasantly, surprised. It is well made, comfortable to wear, and includes a great battery. Did I mention rechargeable! In fact, I had such a smile on my face that my spouse asked "where's hers". So I ordered two more. I never realized how handy this type of flashlight would be. Very long run times , I actually need a fourth one to leave in my vehicle . Two thumbs up!
ProsHigh cap battery included. usb recharge cable provided, uses same cable as smart phones too. Extra sealing (watertight) o rings well made and very bright.
ConsCan't think of one.

Great headlamp!
Very well designed, rugged, easy to use, good range of light levels, and the battery-check is a real plus.
ProsLong battery life on a charge, USB rechargeable without "special" batteries, good light color to reduce glare when reading, and intuitive easily-accessed single button for all functions makes the light very practical.
ConsNone!

Best headlight ever
I bought the HC60 as a Christmas gift for my father based on my experience with the HC50 that I purchased for myself last year. The HC60 is fantastic. With a good range of brightness levels and several strobe options it is quite versatile. The bonus is the fact that it is rechargeable with a USB plug which allows it to be plugged into a 120v outlet with a typical usb-wall outlet adapter or plugged into a computer or car usb port! I love these nitecore headlights and they are the best I've ever owned.
ProsBrightness level selection, very bright on highest setting, good head mount, rechargeable with an included usb cable. It takes a typical rechargeable battery so you can purchase more as spares to ensure you have one or more charged in reserve or you can use the CR123's as an option.
ConsNone so far.

This was a gift to my son-in-law. He is very pleased. Uses when he is out in the barn doing "chores".

Mow lawn at night!
I don't like to tie up one of my hands to have to hold a flashlight. So you strap it to your head and it lights in the direction you are looking at - working! I have a push mower and it's powerful enough to light where I'm mowing at night!
ProsEverything, and it doesn't look like a rhinoceros horn like other headlamps.
ConsNone

Comfortable, good light, clumsy features
Very effective.
Pros1.)The light is lite. Very comfortable & easy to adjust straps to my head. Nice spread of light. Very effective. 2.) Reasonable value for the price paid ($50)
Cons 1.) On/off button should be on the TOP, not front of the light. It's awkward to push the button back directly into your forehead. It would be far better to push down with your thumb on the other side. 2.) The rotation of the light up & down requires too much effort and is trial and error. Friction fit on rubber bracket requires two-handed adjustment. 3.) Very little power difference between two highest settings. 1000 lumens is questionable 4.) Memory of previously used power setting is accessed by holding the awkward on/off button in for one second. Recall should be automatic.

Light up the night
Nitecore products are top notch. This headlamp is no exception.
ProsExcellent brightness and easy operation. This headlamp delivers incredible light output.
ConsTilt is a little difficult to move. I on-off switch on the front ( rather than the top ) takes a little getting used to.

The Best I've Found
I seem to have been through a lot of headlamps, starting with the cheap ones then rapidly amping up the quality and price thinking surely a $20 or $30 lamp would surely meet my needs. Each time after a month or two they would fail. To be fair, I use the lamp often and I am hard on equipment as I am sometimes doing heavy work at night. But now, finally, I have found the light for me! I purchased this lamp back in the summer when it was blazing hot outside. Amazingly, this extremely bright light that is very hot to the touch, it not at all hot on the forehead--excellent design! I've dropped it several times in shallow water or mud with no ill effects whatsoever. It is very lightweight, both on the head or in the pocket, but also very sturdy--it really feels like a good quality product when you use it. I highly recommend this headlamp to anyone willing to pay a bit more; it is very much worth the price and you will not be disappointed!
Pros-- the brightness of the light is amazing, along with a great quality of light color and tone. -- the swivel makes it easy to keep light out of the eyes of others but still have plenty of work light. -- it is very lightweight but very sturdy. -- does not get hot on the forehead, even in extremely hot weather. (I live in the desert region of the southwest) -- waterproof (I think) -- very easy control button, very intuitive to use, no strange patterns to remember -- it feels very comfortable to wear, at times I forget I have it on. -- long battery life, I use it nightly for extended periods of time and can still go for days without recharging. -- removing and replacing the battery shows exactly how much battery life is left in that charge.
Cons-- I've yet to find any
