With output ranging from 20 lumens on the lowest setting up to 2500 lumens on the turbo setting, the PowerTac Flex Headlamp is one of the most versatile lights I own.
It is handy for working in dim, confined spaces or simply when I need to have my hands free to make a repair. It is also a must have for camping, as it can be used for both cooking and cleaning up, searching for firewood, or even for night hikes and night cycling. It’s easy to use, light, comfortable and allows me to light up an area around with me while still leaving my hands free, making it perfect for almost any night task.
The flex headlamp is much lighter than other lights of equal brightness, making it comfortable to wear even for long periods of time.
When considering headlamps, I was really torn between purchasing a headlamp with more of a flood light or a more focused beam. What I love about this headlamp is that it comes with both a flood light mode and a focused beam mode. This headlamp gives you both options, so you don’t have to decide between one or the other.
The first output mode is the focused light mode and has low, medium, high, strobe, and S.O.S. settings with high, strobe and S.O.S. putting out 2500 lumens. The highly focused white beam has a 204 meter throw, which is greatly great for hiking or walking around at night in darker, remote areas.
The second mode is the diffused light mode, which has a red or white diffused light that is softer (150 lumens) and can be used in more enclosed workspaces and in areas where you don’t need such a bright beam. The red light option in this mode is useful for preserving my night vision while still allowing myself to be seen by others without blinding them.
The J-Hook Buckle really adds to the versatility of this headlight, expanding its usage and allowing you to adjust the light upwards and downwards into various positions. I really like that you can move the light around until it’s at the perfect angle, eliminating the frustration I’ve had with other headlamps where I could never get the beam in quite the right position.
Another must have feature that is included with this headlamp is the rechargeable battery. The state of the art magnetic charging system is easy to use by just inserting the magnetic cable, meaning less time fussing around with batteries.
The $159.95 price point for this headlamp is on par with its cutting edge technology, including the ingenious J-Hook Buckle and magnetic charging system, especially combined with its long run time and extreme durability.
