Replacing a very old Black Diamond with this headlamp was a big upgrade. The control is easy to use and the light output is surprisingly strong. The tilt is easy to work and stays where you put it.
I recently used it to repair some wiring under a trailer and literally forgot that I was wearing it at times. I was rolling around on a creeper with this on and it was great; much better than a flashlight for the work at hand.
Low on this headlamp is almost as strong as high was on the B-D. "Medium" is more than adequate for working in dark areas and for walking at night.
For walking, if it's a very dark night and other external light is are minimal, low is probably enough and red is an option if you really want to preserve your night vision.
High is very powerful; very.
The single head strap was different for me since the B-D also had a strap across the crown of the head but the single is comfortable and works well; it's easy to adjust too.
I've yet to seriously challenge the battery life but so far the rechargeable seems quite good. You could always pocket three AAA's for backup.
People who use headlamps a lot may have better choices or different opinions but, for the money, this seems like an excellent option for the casual user.
I can see this being very useful in the situations it was made for too. Hiking, in caves, etc.. I used it in a garage working on my car. The light there wasn’t bright and the hood of the car blocked it out even more. I changed the brake pads on all 4 wheels and replaced car head and fog lights. Took about 4 hours total and light lasted on the brightest setting.
Highly recommend. Not the cheapest light but well worth it and the rechargeable battery it comes with is great.
The lithium ion battery is great as I don't have to feed it batteries. I had been borrowing my wife's Petzl headlamp and I was going through batteries like crazy.
The option to use the rechargeable battery or regular batteries is a great option.
My use for headlights are for three things, hiking, hunting and camping. I tent to use the average brightness in most scenarios in most of my headlights. This light is bright enough in average brightness in the dark evenings/night in the highland of Iceland hiking back to camp after a good hunt for Pink foot geese. The last trip I went with this light we hiked back to camp for over 5 hours and the battery did not show any sign that it would be signing off. I also purchased PETZL, NOCTILIGHT, Protective Lantern and Carrying Case for PETZL Headlamps which I use inside my tent or to protect my headlight. This combo is good for people which hikes or hunts and spends days away from civilization.
The only complain I have about this light is that I miss the feature to have the possibility of both blue and green light, but I could have bought other product from PETZL with such features so maybe I should not be complaining :)
I bought this new one to spruce up my gear. It’s great and so much brighter than my old one. Loving the rechargeable battery that came with it. Petzl is tried and true, solid equipment for all types of uses. Cold weather, no problem. The battery last a really long time. Highly recommend!

After previously owning the LED lenser H7R.2 and being reasonably happy with it. The Petzl Actik Core blows it out of the water in nearly every department.
On first inspection, i thought the shell was quite flimsy and light. But that didn't worry me to much after i saw how bright the light was. More so than the Lenser, plus it reaches a wider area. It enables me to see any potential obstacle infront of me. There are 3 light settings, and it is very simple to use, with no fancy gadgets. I found the Lenser quite clumpy and awkward with far to many different settings which you don't need.
During the darker winter months, i need a torch that is comfortable and durable because i will need to wear it for 7 hours straight some nights. This is comfortable, and holds charge no problem (so long as it's not on the maximum setting all night!)
It does a good job of keeping the rain out. Also you can put it in your rucksack, and not worry about it accidentally switching on.
Charging is simple, it's USB. The strap can be easily adjusted also.
It is very handy to use around the home as well.
To sum up, i have had this 9 months and it's great. If you want a no frills headtorch, that is very bright and reliable. BUY THIS!
