## Description

From the manufacturer Mixed beam (wide and focused) allows for proximity and distance vision for movement. Plate allows you to easily tilt the lamp up or down. Useful phosphorescent reflector for locating the lamp in the dark. ACTIK CORE provides powerful and comfortable lighting to go with you when you’re running, trekking, or mountaineering. HYBRID CONCEPT ACTIK CORE comes with the CORE rechargeable battery and also works with three standard batteries. The headlamp automatically detects the energy source and adjusts lighting performance.

Review: Predictable quality! - The usual high quality you expect from Petzl! I've had a Petzl headtorch for over 10 years & I've no doubt this will last just as long. Nice bright wide beam, good run time, really lightweight & comfortable in use. CHarge level indicator light is a helpful feature. Charges quickly too.
Review: The best thought out head torch I've owned. - I was very pleasantly surprised with this head torch. I've owned a small emergency head torch by Petzl before which was very well considered for its purpouse, so figured I couldn't go to far wrong with them - but my expectations were surpassed. A few things I love about it: - Build quality is good. Materials don't feel cheap or flimsy and it's well weather sealed. - Being able to have a rechargeable lithium battery in it but also use AAA's as a backup is the best of both worlds - functionality is simple, only 3 brightness levels on the main beams, and red solid/flashing mode. - the battery life indicator when you turn it on or offf is excellent and very handy - the ability to lock it with a long-press is something I don't know why isn't on every head torch, the amount of times i've found a torch dead after it turned on in my bag is beyond counting If i had one complaint, it's that you still need to open up the battery compartment to charge it, rather than a USB port on the outside. I can understand that compromise though as it's a standard AAA battery compartment and the rechargeable battery is a removable item which the USB lead plugs directly into. I suppose that actually is rather handy, as it allows you to recharge it separately while using your backup AAA's to keep the torch in action. Overall verdict- excellent head torch with good life, plenty of light on tap, and some very well thought out design.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great head torch
*by J***E on 7 November 2024*

Used this whilst hiking and wild camping on mountains and walking the dog at night. Comfortable, good value and the light is really bright. It has 3 light levels. Low, mid and high beam. I’ll attach a video showing all 3 settings for you. It comes with a rechargeable battery but can also use AAA batteries if needed. Great head torch. Looks and feels well built. Worth the money. Feels nice while wearing, not too heavy. Has all the functions you’d expect from a good quality head torch.
