Swift RL Headlamp - AW25

A great lamp, nice head adjustment feature. The 3 light levels work great for me, 1100 is really powerful, ideal for mountain navigation decision making.

It is very easy to adjust the slack/tightness while running which makes this very comfortable to wear running. It is also very light. Battery life is incredible compared to previous Petzl models. It is extremely bright on the brightest setting, but even on the dullest setting, it is still very bright. It is definitely worth spending a bit of extra money for this.

🔦 As an avid night hiker, I was thrilled to get my hands on the Petzl SWIFT RL headlamp. With a whopping 1100 lumens and a 155-meter beam, this lightweight wonder promised to light up my nocturnal adventures like never before. The REACTIVE LIGHTING mode is truly a game-changer. 🌟 It's like having a personal lighting assistant, automatically adjusting brightness and beam pattern to optimize battery life and visual comfort. I found myself reaching for the controls far less often, allowing me to focus on the trail ahead. However, it's not all smooth sailing. While the 7-hour minimum burn time is decent, I've had a few close calls on longer expeditions. 😓 The single-button control, while sleek, has a bit of a learning curve. I've accidentally cycled through modes more times than I'd like to admit. The red lighting options are a thoughtful touch. Whether I'm reading maps or signaling for help (thankfully, not often), the continuous and strobe settings have proven invaluable. 🆘 The reflective headband is another smart safety feature, ensuring I'm visible to others even when my light is off. Comfort-wise, the ergonomic and adjustable headband is a win. At just 100g, it's easy to forget I'm wearing it. The ability to tilt the lamp up or down is handy, especially when I'm wearing it around my neck or on a helmet. While the SWIFT RL isn't perfect, its pros outweigh the cons for my needs. If you're a serious outdoor enthusiast who values cutting-edge technology and doesn't mind a slight premium, this headlamp could be your new best friend for nighttime adventures. Just remember to pack an extra battery for those extra-long treks! 🏕️

Great quality, great brightness and good battery time

Super bright. You can either charge it using a cable or use a battery. The lamp is adjustable. It is however quite fiddly to switch between modes and I found the instructions confusing on this. A work colleague had to show me how to do it. I bought the lamp at a very good price.

This is brighter than the sun on full setting, excellent bit of kit, I know it's pricey but ive bought cheaper similar head torches and they don't last battery wise and certainly not as bright. Buy cheap buy twice!!

A little expensive, but does seem to be a good solid headtorch.

Annoyingly the price dropped £20 about a week after I bought mine! But has since gone up again. I first used my torch on a night training hike for a walking qualification I'm doing, although I anticipate using it for our quite frequent power cuts and both van and tent camping. The light is pretty easy to understand once you have a play with it and I mostly left it on the reactive mode that cleverly senses when the beam is illuminating objects in close proximity and adjusts the power accordingly. This was brilliant for night hiking as one moment it was cutting deep into the distance and further than anyone else's torch, the next moment it dimmed when reading a map to avoid dazzle. The single button operation reduces complexity and is easy to find without fiddling about. The harness is very comfortable and the light weight of the torch meant I was barely aware of it. It did use more battery life than I expected on the hike (down to 2 of 5 bars on the indicator after 2 hours), but I was playing about with it a bit, testing out the range and different modes and looking at terrain a long way ahead. Max power is bright and I was easily able to see well over 100m. In most situations I will not need to use max power and reactive lighting also reduces power consumption. If it becomes an issue I will stump up the money for a spare battery, but hopefully won't need to, due to more careful us and because I carry a back-up torch. Charging by USB-C is super simple and although it does take a while it's easy to see its charge state with the flashing indicator and at other times how much battery you have left with the 5 stage led lamp indicator. Performance wise, I have nothing but praise so hopefully reliability and and quality will follow. For what it offers, it's definitely worth the cost, but most people will never need this level of performance or the clever reactive lighting, but you will know it you do.

La mejor luz frontal que he tenido. Pros: - Tiene varios modos muy útiles. Tiene 3 niveles de potencia fijos y esos mismos 3 que se adaptan a la luz del entorno. A parte, tiene opciones de emergencia. Normalmente, uso el más débil porque me es más que suficiente, pero cuando estoy descendiendo y voy algo más rápido, le pongo un poco más de potencia dependiendo de la velocidad. - La batería dura bastante. - Es muy fácil de ajustar cada vez que te la pones. En otros modelos que había tenido, más baratos, era un poco rollo. - Si no te pasas apretando, es super cómoda de llevar y no te molesta. La he llevado para correr más de 18km y no me ha molestado. - La luz que emite es bastante 'abierta' y se difumina lo suficiente para alumbrar mucho mejor que otros modelos. Ves lo que tienes delante pero también te da algo de información lateral que va muy bien. Contras: - Para desmontarla y poder limpiar la correa, es un poco rollo. Es complejo. Entiendo que lo hacen para que no te salte mientras corres o si le das algún golpe, pero es demasiado dificultoso y la mayoría de veces la limpio si extraer la luz, con lo que eso puede conllevar que algún día acabe mojando el conector USB-C

Lampada fantastica. Si tratta del modello nuovo con il cavetto tipo C. Luce eccezionale, la funzionalità reactive lighting è molto comoda per il risparmio energetico. Io la uso per andare a pesca usandola alla massima potenza solo quando serve, mi dura tutta la notte. Consigliatissima.

冬の早朝ジョグ用。 強の明るさは、半端ない。 弱点はバッテリーの持ち時間。 ただ、ヘッドにつけるので、これ以上重くなると良くない。 中でも明るいので、街灯のない場所以外は中の強さでOK。

Hittills väldigt nöjd. Bra ljus. Bra batteritid. Sitter bra på huvudet.
