Which headlamp should I choose?

Which headtorch is best depends on how and where you are going to use it. Base your choice primarily on the following factors:

  1. Brightness: Consider how much light and range you need. The Viper delivers up to 2,700 lumens and is well suited for activities such as running, cycling and the outdoors. The Mamba G4 offers a balance between brightness and run time, while the Cobra G4 is developed for activities that require maximum brightness and long range.
  2. Battery life: Battery capacity and the chosen power level affect the operating time. A larger battery provides a longer operating time but also means a higher weight. Viper is available with a 25 or 38 Wh battery, while Mamba G4 and Cobra G4 can be chosen with 106 or 141 Wh.
  3. Weight and comfort: For running and other activities where low weight is important, Viper is the most streamlined option. The lamp, head mount and battery are worn together on the head. Mamba G4 and Cobra G4 have separate, larger batteries that provide longer run times.
  4. Water resistance: Viper complies with IPX5 and withstands rain and water splashes. Mamba G4 and Cobra G4 have IP65, which means they are dust-tight and protected against water jets. The lights must not be used underwater or cleaned with a pressure washer.
  5. Features and light distribution: All models use LEDX X-pand technology to combine broad close-range lighting with light further ahead. Viper also features a red light to help preserve your night vision, for example when reading maps.

The best choice depends on which features you prioritise. Choose Viper if low weight and a compact all-on-head system are most important, Mamba G4 for a balance between brightness and operating time, or Cobra G4 when you need maximum performance and range.

FAQ

Which headlamp is the most powerful?

Cobra G4 is our most powerful headlamp. It delivers up to 7,000 lumens at 100 per cent power and 7,500 lumens in boost mode. The 141 Wh battery provides a longer run time than the 106 Wh option, but does not affect the lamp's maximum brightness.

Which headlamp is the cheapest?

Viper is our most compact option and the lowest-priced head torch in the comparison. It is suitable for running, cycling, dog walking and general outdoor life, for example.

Which head torch has the best battery life?

Battery life varies depending on brightness and battery capacity. Of our ready-made kits, the Mamba G4 with the 141 Wh battery has the longest maximum operating time – up to approximately 145 hours at the lowest power level.

What is the best headlamp?

The best headtorch depends on your needs:

  • Viper suits you if you prioritise low weight, a compact format and a complete all-on-head system.
  • Mamba G4 offers a good balance of brightness, weight and battery life.
  • Cobra G4 is the best choice when maximum brightness and long range are most important.
