The Petzl Tikkina Headtorch is an excellent compact and very lightweight headlamp for everyday use whether reading a book in bed, tackling a household repair in a dark corner, sitting around a camp fire, doing some basic car maintenance attending to a maintenance job onboard a boat and a whole range of other situations.

The Petzl Tikkina Headtorch has two lighting modes that you can easily switch between to have the best kind of illumination for your needs at any one time.

The ambient light mode provides a general light output that will not be uncomfortable for people around you and that will also make the batteries last a long time.

The proximity light mode gives you a wide and quite gentle beam of light that lets you perform actions such as reading or any number of other tasks while you are sitting down or to let you see your way moving around the house, boat, tent and so on.

The ambient light mode has a maximum illumination of 15 lumens over a 15-metre distance and using this mode only would give a battery life of about 120 hours.

The proximity light mode increases the maximum illumination level to 60 lumens over a distance of up to 30 metres with a battery life of about 60 hours.

Obviously, the likelihood is that you will switch between the two modes and experience a battery life somewhere in between to match the proportion of time spent utilising each mode of the strong Petzl Tikkina Headtorch.
