Nitecore NU43
Compact, Whisper Weight Headlamp
The Nitecore NU43 is an ultra-lightweight headlamp with 5 brightness levels reaching 1400 lumens, white and red light sources, and 3 special modes. Take extra peace-of-mind with you on your next run thanks to the NU43’s SOS and beacon modes in addition to a slow-flashing red light mode that will flag down passersby if need be.
This is an excellent running companion due to its incredibly light design and its IP68 weather rating which will persevere through storms of rain and sand alike.
State-of-the-Art Optical System — 400+ Feet of Throw
The unibody optical lens build of the NU43 houses a multifaceted reflector responsible for the soft, even glow of the TrueVision beam which can be viewed for hours with minimal eye strain. Additionally, you can switch over to the red light outputs which preserve your natural night vision and are exceptionally useful in serving as a personal locator in case of an emergency.
Long Range Power Performance
With the included USB-C charge cable, you can keep the built-in 18650 battery pack going with lightning-fast recharge in just 2 hours. The simple four-stage power indicator will let you know when to plug in and refill the 3400mAh power supply with an intelligent charging circuit and a USB-C with smart, rotating aluminum alloy coverage from the elements. With 165 hours of runtime on its ultralow setting, the energy-dense battery of the NU43 will perform to your heart’s content.
