The Nitecore NU20 is a compact, rechargeable head torch that provides a maximum output of 360 lumens from a Cree XP-G2 S3 LED.
Due to the micro textured reflector, the NU20 has a central spot of light surrounded by wide angle flood lighting that provides a 100° angle of illumination for excellent peripheral vision. Additionally the head torch has a hinged bracket, that is hollowed to reduce weight, allowing the light to be tilted and adjusted within a 52° angle.
Four brightness levels are available as well as two special modes that are operated with a single push button on the top of the head torch. When the adjustable bracket is in the upright position, the button is hidden underneath a switch guard to prevent accidental activation when not in use.
The NU20 has an integrated 600 mAh lithium-ion battery, rated at 2.2 Wh and equivalent to three AAA batteries, that is charged via the micro-USB charging port. Reveal the port by lifting the dust cover on the bottom of the torch and then simply plug the included micro USB cable into the charging port and the other end into a computer/laptop or a suitable USB adaptor.
Featuring a unique design function, the NU20 remains fully functional while charging, so that you have access to light should you need it in an emergency. Alternatively it can be charged on the go with a powerbank, which is ideal for runners covering long distances. A built in power indicator light in the button flashes to show the remaining battery power when you press and hold for one second while the torch is off.
