Use one for work every morning for the last year and a half,  bought one for my wife,  she loves it.  Bought this one for my friend,  he loves it.... can't beat the quality,  innovative design and simplicity of this device.  It functions flawlessly every time I have used it.  The beam is incredible and lasts longer than I expected.  Battery is quick to charge and with one extra you will never run out of light at work.  Highly recommend this product to anyone that doesn't mind spending a little more for a device that will last for years and years.

Hands down the best headlamp out there. All the different modes, ease of use, long lasting and takes the worst weather you can throw at it. I wear mine snowshoeing in the mountains in blizzard like conditions and I can always rely upon my HC65!

Most powerful headlamp I've ever owned. My 1st one was in 1996. Personally I love the red light. Keeps the bugs down, easier on the eyes when sitting in a group or walking along the dock. The area light is amazing too. I use those 2 more than the spot, which is crazy-bright. Likewise great when pulling the boat in at night. Adequate headband. My only 2 gripes is that it's quite heavy by any measure and the controls are abysmally confusing. I've gotten to the point that I just close my eyes when I turn it on because I know I'm going to do it wrong and either activate the 10000lm strobe or the spot.

Really lights up the night and is great for sharpening knives. The strap that goes across the top of the head is an added Plus.  No Regrets buying this light!

It's great! Honestly I was looking for something with a light on the front and battery on the back (that uses the same battery as this). But this works great. I do wish it had a brightness control for the white/red flood light.

I am very impressed with this headlamp. It's bright and powerful. I drive 3rd shift commercial and it's perfect for pre-tripping my tractor trailer.

This is the second one I?ve bought only to replace my 4+ year old one, witch still works but has seen better days. Perfect size and weight for everyday carry.

I drive a truck from sunset to sunrise and this light is an everyday workhorse for me.  The headlamp is nice so I can have hands free light doing what I need to do outside the truck.  Different situations call for different levels of lightning and this light is amazing...Bright; However, if I need to read something the low end light allows me to read something without being to bright that it hurts my eyes.   The strobe light is a nice feature,  should I breakdown and have to be outside the truck around traffic.  I also like the red light when I need a light that doesn?t disturb others if I?m camping on a fishing trip and have to make a late night trip to the wash house.  This light is extremely bright and the battery lasts a long time on each charge.  I love this light that?s why I have two of them!! Thanks for making a quality product at a reasonable price!!

I got this to keep in the Jeep but now I use it everywhere. The red is really nice as well for night sailing. The controls become intuitive within just a couple minutes. Well thought out and designed product.

So far the headlamp is great, the brightness is amazing. Understanding the instructions and how to get to the different lights is a different story, I hope they can send out some better instructions that can help you get to the right lights, but lots of clicking and trying, I think I have figured it out.

I’ve only used the headlamp once. I think I’ll enjoy and appreciate it once I figure out how to move between modes.

I basically use this flash light for maintenance around the house and car. Lights up the exact location.

I recently purchased this for my husband, along with an additional battery for later use. He's used it once and the battery is already dimming. I understand it's rechargeable, but it should not be going dead this fast.

The greatest headlamp ever purchased.This is my second headlamp cause someone stole my other one. Very satisfied with all aspects of the product from the materials used to construct this almost indestructible headlamp.... NITECORE number 1 on my list for my portable lighting source.....

I am a semi driver, fisherman and generally just love the outdoors.  I bought this headlamp with the intent to use it for work, because I work at night; However, I am finding myself using this light for a lot more things than I intended to.  I genuinely love this light!!  Hands free illumination with a light that makes it look like daytime.  This light is very easy to operate with a large button on the end and the battery lasts a super long time.  I'm really happy with my purchase and would do it again.  THANKS NITECORE!!

I've gone through many headlamps and this one so far is exactly what I was hoping for.  Seriously bright on high power, bright red LED (which is mostly why I wanted this model), and the high CRI is a pleasant all-around camp light for my needs.  AND it comes with an NL1834 which is valued at just under $20!  LOVE this headlamp

Excellent, high quality light.  I work construction and it is nice to have multiple settings.  I find that low or medium get me through most tasks throughout the shift.  I also like the fact that can have multiple 18650s recharged and at the ready when needed.  No more throwing money away on batteries.  It’s just a great product that works as described.

This headlamp is awesome. The machining makes the battery cap and button cap manipulation smooth as butter�you can tell immediately that this device was made with great care with an eye toward quality. The operation is easy and the light is incredibly bright on both hi beam and turbo. There’s a position locator and battery level indicator that are a nice touch. And you can tell it’s rugged and will withstand years of abuse. In this crazy world of cheap knock-offs, it’s a real delight to find a tool that’s so well built. Well done, NiteCore. Well done.

A great headlamp made even better!   I don't usually post reviews but we have enjoyed these headlamps for about 5 years now.  The brightness of these headlamps is unreal.  Even going down to 1 lumen is pretty rare for headlamps.  The fact that the 65 now has a secondary light and red light makes an already kick butt headlamp twice as better.

Really enjoy the soft white light auxiliary as well as the red auxiliary light. The main light is plenty bright for my needs. Will update if anything goes wrong.

Great light so far. SUPER BRIGHT! I love the adjustable output, the variable light choices and multiple charging options. I'll let you know in a few months after beating the stew out of it if it gets 5 stars! All other headlamps have only lasted a few months at best.

Excellent product, shipped fast. Love different light modes . Love able to recharge and also use batteries if power not available. Bought charging cords also  so charge from truck as well. 5 stars if it lasts, time will tell.

The battery has not completely charged. Per the instructions I hooked up the charger and got the blue blinking light. Let it charge all night.  Still blinking in the morning.  Tried to turn on the light and it did not work.  Started replace the battery and after I opened it up I saw the battery had a piece of paper over one end.  Took it off and the light worked.  It was keeping the battery from making contact.  Hooked it back up to the charger and so far it’s not fully charged.  Wish the instructions would have said to check the battery to make sure the paper was removed.

I was on the fence about which headlamp to buy and your website was incredibly helpful in making the decision.

Durable and I LOVE it.. I've already dropped it a handful of times and it still works like a champ. I use it daily for work and it lasts all day

The product is great. The distributer was informative and helpful when I called to ask questions. Shipping was fast. I live in the country and use this headlamp regularly. I find the auxiliary light (25hr runtime) is perfect of most of my close up work. The higher lumen white light is available when I went to see what's lurking in the distance. Don't hesitate to purchase. This is a top-tier distributer and product.
