The Nitecore NU05 is an ultra compact, light weight and durable light that is ideally suited to close range lighting and back up duties.
The lamp unit is super versatile as it can be worn on the head with the included headband, clipped onto clothing or a backpack using the integrated clip or with the supplied mount it can be attached to a bike. It is powered by a built-in 120 mAh lithium-ion battery which is recharged via the USB port on the bottom of the light using the included USB charging cable.
The NU05 offers a white light with a maximum output of 35 lumens which can be set to constant on or flashing. In addition to the white LED, there is also a red LED that provides low level lighting to preserve night vision and is also good to attract attention, which makes it useful for mounting to a backpack or bike for use as a rear light / emergency beacon to indicate your location.
The power button is located in the middle of the light and is turned on by pressing the button and turned off by either going through the modes or after it has been in one mode longer than 3 seconds the next press turns the light off. Once turned on the modes are cycled through by pressing the button within 3 seconds to go through red indicator, red slow blink, red fast blink, white blink and constant red.
