Headlamp recommendations for technical night trail training

Fenix HM65R-T version 1. I have tested both version 1 and 2 and there are significant differences between them. It's been while ago but if I'm correct, version 2 has two lights but the light bream is the same when version 1 has narrow and wife beams for better flexibility. I used it in 100K UTMB Ver

ruuning headlamp

Fenix HM65R-T V2.0 is absolutely awesome. You take extra Battery with you and you have super bright light all night long. I have it, wouldn't change for anything else. There is only one thing that I'm considering negative. It's a bit front heavy. After wearing it 2 nights in a row I developed small

Headlamp for 100M (12 hours in the darkness)

The Fenix HM65R-T V2.0 is kind of like the Salomon Adv Skin 12 of headlamps for long ultras. There are a whole bunch of reviews of this headlamp out there, so take a look.

Head torch on jobs

Fenix HM65R is what I use great battery life USB C fantastic light quality only thing that would make it top tier would be a magnetic strap or piece so you can stick it to something if you don't want to wear it.

Head Lamps, Waist Light or Other Recommendations

Snap. I have a Fenix HM65R-T for the head and a Ultraspire 600 for the waist and they both throw out the right amount of light for me to comfortably run technical trails in the dark.

alternatives to generators that don't make camp sound like a construction site?

What type of janky headlamp do you have that only lasts a few days? I do long multi-week backcountry canoe trips and my headlamp (Fenix HM65R) will easily last for 3 weeks of daily use.

Headlamp recommendations for technical night trail training

I have a Fenix HM65R-T that I picked up when I ran Pinhoti and it was great, tons of light with spot and flood options, also warm vs cool light, I think the warm light makes it easier to see the rocks and roots. Has a rechargeable battery that’s easy to switch out (and lasts a long time). The only c

What’s the go to Headlamp?

I’ve had one of these for well over a year now... IMHO, best headlamp I’ve ever had: https://fenix-store.com/collections/headlamps-hm-series/products/fenix-hm65r-rechargeable-headlamp-1400-lumens It features a buttery smooth ‘flood’ mode & is comfortable. It’s rechargeable, has good battery life, an

Recommendations for head torches for sunrise hikes up mountain? That ideally won’t break the bank🤣

Really like my Fenix HM65R v2. Did a lot of research before buying, although my main use case is trail running. Extremely solid, manageable size and weight, reputable brand, USB-C rechargeable and a nice usable and bright warm white LED plus a slightly brighter cool white when needed. Like all headt

new running headlamp

Out of your three I’d pick the Fenix HM65R-T. For several reasons: I’m a huge fan of the 18650 rechargeable battery platform, it comes in some cool colors, it can also use the CR123 primary batteries and it has a built in charger. The other two do not have these things so for me it would be a pass o
