NiMH Headlights

Headlights are essential for outdoor activities like hiking and camping. They should be lightweight, water-resistant, and have adjustable brightness settings. Look for models with long battery life and comfortable headbands to ensure they meet your needs during extended use.

Headlight brightness is measured in lumens. For general use, 100-200 lumens are sufficient. For more demanding tasks like trail running or cycling, consider 300 lumens or more. Assess your typical environment to decide the appropriate brightness level.

Not all headlights are waterproof. Check the IP rating; an IPX4 rating means splash-resistant, while IPX7 or higher indicates full water resistance. Choose according to your intended use, especially if you'll be exposed to rain or wet environments.

Beam distance determines how far ahead you can see in the dark. A longer beam distance is crucial for activities like running or cycling at night. Consider your usual activity and environment when selecting a headlight with an appropriate beam range.
