Overview

Not a basic camping headlamp, the HM65R V2.0 pairs a long-throw spotlight with a floodlight and a red light in a magnesium alloy housing. A rechargeable lithium polymer pack powers it, and the strap adjusts for fit.

Reach and low weight together make the case: the spot carries far down a trail while the magnesium body stays light on the forehead. Listed contents name only the head band and lamp, so the charging lead may be missing, and the long runtime figure is not tied to a mode.

Who it's for

Night hikes, searches across open ground and long trail runs suit a light headlamp with a far-reaching spot. Those who prefer swapping disposable cells in the field should choose a different design.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Long-throw spot plus wide flood
  • Red light mode included
  • Light magnesium alloy body
  • IP68 waterproof rating
Cons
  • Charging cable not listed in the box
  • Nonstandard battery, no standard cell backup
  • Mode behind the runtime figure unstated
  • Beam angle not given

Performance notes

Throw comes from the spot emitter focusing output into a narrow beam, while the flood spreads light for close tasks, so mode choice decides both reach and battery drain. The lithium polymer pack sets runtime, and higher output drains it faster.
