IKO

Low-bulk, perfectly balanced 350-lumen headlamp

For extended low-light adventures, a decent head torch is a must. But many bulky and heavy headlamps get uncomfortable if you’re forced to wear them for hours on end. Petzl’s Iko is different. It has been ergonomically designed for supreme comfort, while combining multiple technologies to offer a bright, 350-lumen output with a weight penalty of just 90g. Key to the design is Petzl’s Airfit headband, which fuses an ultra-thin lamp body with a battery unit worn at the back of the head. This balanced construction ensures enhanced long-term wearing comfort. The multiple LEDs are easy on the eyes too, being ideally distributed for optimal uniform lighting, with no retina-burning hotspots. The Iko comes with 3 standard AAA batteries but is also compatible with Petzl’s Core rechargeable battery, making it a versatile adventure companion. The low-bulk design packs away easily, while it can also be worn around the neck or even transformed into a lantern, using the supplied storage pouch.
