Whether you’re out on a regular evening fell run or up in the early hours of the morning for a classic alpine start, you need a reliable and versatile headlamp that will light up your path, whatever the conditions. Petzl’s Actik headlamp has the whole package. It offers 450 lumen brightness and multi-beam outputs that are ideal for dynamic outdoor activities from mountaineering and trail running to hiking and backpacking. A useful red light mode preserves your night vision and won’t blind fellow adventurers. This headlamp comes with 3 standard AAA batteries for ease of use, but is also compatible with Petzl’s Core rechargeable battery, thanks to the hybrid concept design. It’s a great all-rounder for anyone who likes to get after it, 24/7.

Supports Eco Initiatives - The Petzl Foundation supports non-profit organizations whose role is to discover and protect biodiversity on cliffs, in caves and in mountain ranges
As a brand, Petzl was born in the darkness. Their story began with founder Fernand Petzl’s passion for caving, back in the mid-1930s. Out of that passion, Petzl started to design innovative solutions for ascending, descending, belaying and moving about underground. This included pioneering headlamps and rope safety equipment. But alpinists soon discovered that what worked below the earth also worked above it, and Petzl kit was quickly co-opted by climbers, mountaineers and skiers.
Today, Petzl remains one of the leading technical brands in all these fields, still devoted to one mission: to access the inaccessible. The product range is split into two core categories: lighting – which includes some of the world’s most advanced head torches; and verticality – highly technical equipment designed for those venturing into the world’s loftiest mountain ranges as well as the globe’s deepest, darkest places.
