Smart sensors will dim the light if they detect something is too close to it, preventing overheating and accidental bag burns.
DUAL OUTPUT HEADLAMP - Brighter, smaller, and longer running! The NU43 headlamp is the big brother of the highly rated NU33. With upgraded brightness and hinge system, you can switch freely between five brightness settings to the red LED and protect your night vision or use it as a long-lasting signal light.
2 HOUR USB-C FAST CHARGING - Built-in high capacity rechargeable battery gets you 10 hours runtime on 600 lumens and 29 hours on 100 lumens. An integrated USB-C port fast charges to full in only 2 hours. A power indicator tells you when it's time to charge while lockout mode prevents accidental activation.
RUGGED AND TOUGH - IP68 waterproofing with a USB port seal keeps water and dust out for a complete seal. The newly designed headband is skin-friendly and has large bright reflective strips to guarantee visibility and protection.
The lightweight NU43 takes the center stage as Nitecore's new high end all-rounder headlamp for night running, outdoor adventures, or camping.
When designing this new headlamp, Nitecore was trying to solve 2 problems that users were complaining about. How do you get longer runtimes and brighter output without adding weight?
On the market today, the only way to break the 1000 lumen mark in a headlamp was to use the bigger 18650 batteries, and with 1000 lumens you need a way to get rid of the heat that's why many 18650 headlamps are all aluminum, and that's where the weight comes from.
So users always had to content with brightness vs weight vs runtime. More weight = brighter and longer running. Less weight = less bright and short runtime.
That changes today with advancements in manufacturing methods. They were able to combine high-strength plastic as the main body of the headlamp but keep the front aluminum for impact resistance and heat dissipation.
This cuts 30% of the weight, removing the need for a center headband for increased comfort. Not only that, with advancements in charging tech, they also cut the charging time from 5 hours to 2 hours. Just these 2 things alone they managed to cut weight and charging time, yet extend runtime and boost the max brightness to a blinding 1400 lumens.
This puts the NU43 in a class of its own, a potent mix of performance, advanced materials, and weightlessness. If you're looking for an upgrade to your old built-in battery headlamp, this is it.
