Illuminate Any Situation—For Hours on End
UNRIVALVED RUNTIME - Power through the longest jobs with ease. Unlike headlamps with built-in or replaceable batteries, the HU2000 connects directly to a power bank, allowing for up to 4x longer runtime. Ideal for demanding environments where extended lighting is essential. Emergency lighting mode provides 30 minutes of lighting when power runs low or is being replaced, ensuring safety during critical moments.
LIGHTWEIGHT COMFORT FOR ALL DAY AND ALL NIGHT WEAR - Unlike bulky headlamps with built-in batteries, the HU2000’s split-type design keeps the power source off your head, making the headlamp significantly lighter—just 114 grams (4.02 oz). 24% lighter than similar headlamps, reducing strain on your neck during extended wear. The external power source can be stored in your backpack or pocket to keep warm and maintain power, perfect for cold environments.
HEADBAND OR BELT CLIP - Whether you're working in tight spaces or need a hands-free area light, the HU2000's clip lets you mount it on a shoulder strap, belt, or any surface for makeshift area lighting, all while staying connected to an external power bank. This makes the HU2000 the most adaptable tool in your lighting arsenal.
BLAZING 2000 LUMEN OUTPUT - Take on any task with precision thanks to the HU2000’s TrueVision+ Optical Matrix System, delivering over 94% light transmission efficiency and minimizing light loss. Its 58.9mm wide surface provides over 100° of beam angle, compared to traditional point lights that create narrow, inefficient beams.
DESIGNED FOR THE TOUGHEST CONDITIONS - Built to withstand the elements, the HU2000 is IP68 waterproof and dustproof, with impact resistance up to 1 meter. Whether you're working in harsh environments or braving a winter storm, the HU2000 is designed to keep shining.
Tired of headlamps that die out before the job’s done?
Standard models with built-in or replaceable batteries fall short when you need reliable, long-lasting light.
Constantly swapping batteries or recharging disrupts your workflow, leaving you stuck in the dark.
The Nitecore HU2000 solves that by connecting to an external power bank, delivering up to 4x longer runtime than other headlamps. Whether it's for night shifts, search and rescue missions, or extended outdoor activities, this headlamp provides consistent, powerful light for as long as you need it.
With its lightweight design, the HU2000 takes the pressure off your head, making it more comfortable for extended wear. Its versatile clip-on feature also lets you mount it to a shoulder strap, belt, or use it as an area light, giving you flexibility in any situation.
