Lots of great information, for those of us who have a little idea of lights, lumens etc etc. Perfectly said buying the right tool for the job. Thanks for the great content and breaking it all down for us who use lights for work weekly.

Glad it helps! appreciate the support!

Dear Nitecore! I bought HC65 one month ago. I used 2 hours light rain, and the headlamp is died. Was not waterproof. The support was okay, and everything was fine, so I decided I give second chance for this headlamp. I ordered the second one, but the fist, I did: those four tiny srews on the front (because that part was leaked) I tightened very well! After I just put into a cup of water minimum one hour. The test was succesful and I hope never be any problem in the future. So please take care in the factory, because the srews just not enough tighten! Were very leasure! Anyway, I like it!

@kayasper6081 2 года назад

That is a nice tip, thank you! I also have the HC65, certainly will check those screws.

@haneiev 2 года назад

One important point is missed in this video. For powerful headlamps color temperature is very important. If your headlamp output is more then 1k lumens and the CCT is 6500K, you will be a bit blinded by reflections from water drops in air. Manufacturers usually don’t bothering customer needs and fall to “marketing fluff”.

Does Mr. Nitecore know that you sneak in every night to make the videos? I'm kidding clearly, the videos are always very interesting and allow us to orient ourselves in the wide choice of products, thank you very much!

Thank you for your video. Some years ago I bought the Nitecore Thumb for work. Perfect for navigation in dark rooms and the red light if you want to preserve your night vision and / or don't want to be really seen. I'm satisfied with it. Now I'm searching for a headlamp for hiking, backpacking, long walks, journeys. I was looking at the NU17 and some other Nitecore lights in that price range. I do not need a really long beam and the light don't have to be super bright. I saw the NU35 and I think I will buy it. It has a wide beam, auxiliary lights and red light. I really like the build in battery and that you can put extra batteries in it. That will be good when I'm hiking. There's no need to depend on the charger. I can use batteries. Sure it is bigger. But I think the light is the light I was searching for.

@robertglendenning5148 3 года назад

Excellent review. Highly recommended for first time buyer.

@Mrb00st 3 года назад

Man, you really make all these light details make sense. the whole "turbo brightness" aspect seems irrelevant, considering they run for 30s-1m on "turbo" before they step down due to heat.. I have a Lumintop fw3t that will only stay on turbo for a few seconds before it steps down. And then on a headlamp, which is a very useful tool as a mechanic, anything over "medium" on an 18650 headlamp really blows out your vision! yes it's easy to be 'too bright' in that situation. I've gotta get some nitecore lights. such useful info.

Nice guide, thank you! I love Nitecore because they have a lot model for every scenario!

@erictayet 3 года назад

I bought a HC65 last year for my mountain hiking trip. Really love it because of the 3 LEDs, white for map, red for tactical movement and Main one for flood. For mountain hiking, the RED LED is super bright coz our eyes are sensitive to red light and it lasted for 2 nights climb at really low temperature of 2-7 degree C. Only problem was the rubber holder broke a few weeks after the trip. Must be all the sulphur from the volcano. We entered the crater of Mt. Ijen...

@philh1826 2 года назад

I can't find a specific video on the HC35 by you. Have you made one? I frequently inspect large abandoned buildings such as hotels and I need to see far and also up close without glare. Is the HC35 good for this? I don't really mind the weight as I will need it 2-3 hours max

@Slaegar 2 года назад

Information you have got me to buy a P20iX instead of the P20i. The wide beam is more useful than the long range beam. For my uses being able to light up an entire room is more useful than being able to light up part of my neighbor's shed.

@NitecoreSG 2 года назад

Yeap beam type is important. Glad it helped

@maritamanzanillo6941 2 года назад

Do you have a store in the Philippines? My Nu25 was mistakenly put in the washing machine and though I was able to use it, it just turned off while hiking for 45 minutes. I was able to recharge it but it does not turn on anymore.

Hi! i really enjoy your videos as newbie in lights.... great infos here, subbed :) can you help me with choosing a good waterproof headlamp? as i read i would need a IPX8. i have found the Petzl Black Diamond Spot 350 but it seems it leaks water inside. it is tested only for 30mins. by 1,1 meter depth. It would be great if you can give me a advice what to buy :) greetings

@NitecoreSG 3 года назад

For the best seal, use headlamps without any USB port, like the HC33, that will work better for you for waterproofing

@lockee77 3 года назад

@@NitecoreSG thanks :) i guess i will go for this. but there is now "manual focus adjust" like the ither which seems to be great. That with HC33 would be perfect 😁

Hello, do you have any headlamp recommendation that can focus light to the smallest diameter possible for medical procedure, like ENT procedure?

@jollyhuang 2 года назад

I bought medical penlight and very satisfied with it👍🏻thanks for the recommendation👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻but do you any recommendation for headlamp that can focus to smallest diameter for ENT Procedure?

@the_once-and-future_king. Год назад

@@jollyhuang You'll need a professional medical light for that. Every other headlamp is designed for flood or spot-at-range. Also the colour temperature will be way off without proper correction.

nitecore hc35 if turbo mode cant use it for the long period of time? it back to mid brightness

@NitecoreSG Год назад

Yes all turbo modes will eventually step down to stop the light from overheating

Well, you made a mistake. The Nitecore NU35 can run 10 hours at 210 lumens (not the crazy 77 hours). It uses 2 different power sources: 3 x AAA and 920 mAh lit-ion battery (not 3 power sources)

@Universal_Craftsman 3 года назад

I ordered an HC65 from Amazon, and the ultralow mode failed and stayed off, I got the replacement and after a week of testing the fully pressed position of the switch failed and now hardly ever works to turn the main light on and off, I don't know if it's nitecore's fault or Amazon does some shady things there with reselling counterfeit or second-grade products.

@NitecoreSG 3 года назад

Don’t buy from Amazon. Buy from a proper dealer or distributor. You don’t know where the products are coming from

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Good day to you all. Are you planning to make a bike Helmet light , long lasting, at least 100 meters throw , max 1800 lumen , USB-C charging , with a display , with GoPro mounting??? ✅I have 2 Nitecore BR35 , THE BEST BIKE LIGHT - used on winter storm , the only light we have, last a long time & the Nitecore TUP 1000 lumen. I need a light for my helmet same durability & long lasting. There was an increase of people riding their bike now with the pandemic. U.S. has millions of backordered bikes. This will be a great market for you as well. Or maybe add GoPro mount on the BR35???? I don’t like the HU60( battery is separated) Thank you
