Description of Petzl Ultra Headlamp:
|
When you run the Wasatch 100 for the tenth time, participate in Sweden’s 10MILA orienteering race, or bike at night, it’s quite important to be able to see where you’re going. Let the Petzl Ultra Headlamp lead the way. This headlamp provides 350 lumens at its maximum brightness and lights the trail with both long-distance and wide-angle light at the same time. The stabilized plate and foam pad fit snugly on your head as you bound up or down the mountain and three brightness levels let you balance how far you need to see with how long you need the batteries to run. Check the indicator on the battery to view battery level. An extension cord (sold separately) allows you to keep the rechargeable battery pack warm under your clothing in extreme cold.

Bottom Line: Don't let the dark hold you back.

| Backpacker Review 01-22-10 |
| Matt Hart (64): |
| full disclosure i got one to use as a pacer from petzl. the light is absolutely amazing. i've used a lot of lights and this is by far and away the brightest, even when compared to $500 bike lights. my bottom line: it's an amazing light. i would not use it during a race because it's heavy. i will use it to pace friends in races however. it might be the best pacing light on earth... but it's drastically over priced.
Backpacker's Take on it:
"If you were the first kid on the block to buy a JetBoil, a SPOT, and a folding titanium spork–and your money wasn't invested in AIG–check out the Ultra. This insanely bright and comically expensive searchlight employs the most advanced outdoor LED circuitry currently available, quadrupling the effective distance of standard headlamps. It's easily the brightest lamp we've tested, rivaling the power of some HID mountain-biking lights; even on the lowest of its three settings, you'll flood your tent or kitchen area with brilliant, shadow-free light. Which begs the question: If you're going to drop $430 on a headlamp–a headlamp!–shouldn't it come with mounts for your helmet and handlebars? It's more illumination than most people need for hiking and mountaineering, and it's too expensive not to offer more versatility. It's not light, either, and burn time on the rechargeable lithium-ion battery pack ranges from just two to 15 hours. But if money is no object, go ahead–be brilliant. $430; 12.2 oz" |

| Amazing Brightness 02-12-10 |
| John Ross (0): |
| Bought this headlamp along with two other less expensive headlamps to compare them. The Brunton L3 (3 watt) and the BD Icon (3 watt / 100 lumen) were comparable to each other. But the Petzl Ultra WAY outshined those two. What a solid headlamp too. I couldn't help but think that this is THE headlamp for search and rescue types who want LOTS of light! Simply amazing.
The other thing I love about the Petzl Ultra is the Lithium-ion rechargeable battery. It has to be the best headlamp battery anywhere. If this headlamp wasn't so dang expensive it would get 5 stars from me fer sure. |
