The Fenix HL15 is a lightweight head torch designed with running in mind, but is equally as good for hiking, camping, dog walking and many other activities where a lightweight head torch is preferred.
The Cree XP-G2 R5 neutral white LED offers a maximum output of 200 lumens on turbo as well as high, mid, low and eco brightness levels. There is also two side red LEDs that offer 0.2 lumens of constant red light or a flashing red light.
Two independent switches are located on the top of the head torch for easy operation. The right hand power button turns the white LED on by holding the switch for 0.5 seconds and then each press after that will cycle through the modes. Press and hold the button again to turn the torch off. The left hand button will activate red light with one press, a second press will access red flash and the one more press will turn the light off.
Apart from being lightweight, the HL15 has a number of other features that make it great for running. The headband is comfortable and adjustable, but it also has a silicone strip on the inside that channels sweat and rain away from the eyes. On the outer part of the headband there are reflective strips, which are excellent for enhanced visibility.
A 100° wide angle beam allows you to clearly see your path and around you, keeping you safer, and the direction of the light can be altered with the hinged bracket that allows the torch to tilt forwards at a 60° angle.
Built-in overheat protection will automatically reduce the output slighty if the temperature reaches 65°C, once the torch begins to cool the output will gradually increase. An intelligent memory circuit remembers the last white brightness setting used when next turned on.
Powered by two AAA alkaline or NiMH batteries with a run-time of up to 1 hour, 30 minutes in high mode when using alkaline batteries.
