  This review is about the lumen: -

  Good strong flashlight,
  . Charges easily with my phone charger
  . There is a blue light indicator that shows you how much it has charged
  . Easy on/off buttons and a switch option from small to large
  . Very good head strap, stable and easy to adjust
  . Right weight
  . Good build quality

  . Lost a star because according to the description I read, I expected it to be much stronger

  The previous headlamp I have is almost as bright for half the money.

  Very good flashlight. I got it for trail runs and it is very powerful. It grips well on the head and has automatic dimming as soon as it gets light. The build quality is super. The reflectors on the strap make a difference. The only downside I find is its bulk which, although not large, can be a bit annoying when placed in a running belt.

  All the described features are fully valid. Very satisfied on all levels.
  As for observations, I have 2.
  First, the lens is plastic. I don't consider it a problem, but I would prefer it to be aluminum.
  Second, the battery is built-in and you don't have the option to carry one or two more as spares to change them. However, I still don't consider this a major disadvantage given 1. the long battery life (which is true as described in the instructions) and 2. the ability to connect to an external battery.

  Good quality but it is made of plastic and of Chinese construction. Its battery cannot be changed by the user. Very expensive for being made of plastic. I don't like at all that it is made of plastic and its battery cannot be removed. I don't know how long the plastic will withstand continuous operation at high brightness levels, but surely there will be a problem at some point. The only thing I liked very much is its very good brightness and the clear light it has. I would not recommend it for purchase and I would recommend a similar one to be made of aluminum and for the battery to be removable by the user.

  This review is about a variation of the product

  In summary, it has a very long battery life, is lightweight for its category at a price I have not found comparable with such features.
  - In more detail, it is a headlamp that can be used everywhere, from sports activities such as hiking/running at night on a mountain or road to technical work without the fear of the battery running out while you exercise/work (29 hours 100 Lumens - 15 hours 300 Lumens - 10 hours 600 Lumens tested). Especially for camping, it can last 2 to 3 days at least depending on usage.
  - During mountain hiking, the 300 and 600 Lumens were sufficient to illuminate even for those ahead with the 100 Lumens being more than enough to see the person wearing the headlamp.
  - During technical work such as car repair and bike repair, I was satisfied and there was never a moment when I missed the light.
  - Besides the basic functions with the 3 basic scales, the turbo with 1400 Lumens is useful instantly or for a few seconds mainly outdoors when you want to see at a long distance or very clearly where the light stays at 600 Lumens steadily for about 2 hours and then decreases automatically for protection from overheating. A feature I liked because most flashlights tend to periodically drop Lumens due to overheating and lose their usefulness (handheld flashlights etc. even from well-known brands that I have tried). Even when it gets very warm, within 5 minutes it has cooled down and is ready to operate at the high scale and can operate at the low scale as it cools down.
  - The red light is useful for reading maps or notes in the dark without bothering the eye from the white light. The ultralow function of 8 Lumens is satisfactory for an emergency when you are about to run out of battery (requires effort) or as a signal for walking in an urban area where I use it.
  - I have no reason to analyze the other functions it has as they are as described on the Nitecore website.
  - One of the most important observations I made is that at the high scale of 600 Lumens, the flashlight can illuminate steadily at 600 Lumens without decreasing for about 2 hours, and then it decreases on its own for about 2 hours, and then it decreases on its own for protection from overheating. A characteristic I liked because it is common for most flashlights to have a periodic drop in Lumens due to overheating and thus the high Lumens decrease dramatically within a few minutes and the flashlight loses its usefulness (handheld flashlights, etc., even from well-known brands that I have tried). Even when it gets very warm, within 5 minutes it has cooled down and is ready to operate at the high scale and can operate at the low scale as it cools down.
  - The fit on the head is very good with the headband being comfortable and elastic, on the inside where it fits on the forehead it has a strip of silicone for better grip. Weighing 116 grams, there is no weight discomfort, but during running vibrations are definitely noticeable without the fear of it coming off. In addition, the temperature of the flashlight is not transferred to the head as the base has a gap that allows it to cool better.
  - The only feature that I can say might bother me is the safety sensor where when it is in medium, high, or turbo mode and detects an obstacle in front of the flashlight (5 to 10 cm), it decreases to the low scale of 100 Lumens for flashlight protection from overheating. This can be annoying when working in a tight space or when the head needs to be close to an object.
  - I have had it for 2 weeks and it has fallen twice without any visual or functional damage.
  -Finally, it is worth mentioning that it is very practical that it has 2 buttons for the functions and does not have many buttons to confuse the user with what each one does.
  -For most people, the features it offers may be excessive and they do not want to spend so much money.
  -I will try to update periodically about the good functioning of the lens but also any problems that may arise.
  Update 1: After 1 month of daily use in work and activities, I remain satisfied without any problems.
  Update 2: Almost 9 months later, it has been tested in rain (several times in mountain and asphalt running), even more falls and summer heat without any problems. As I expected and consider it reasonable, the lumen drop occurs faster due to overheating in heat, but it still does not transfer heat to the head.
  (The photos and video were taken with an iPhone 13 without any editing, with the headlamp working at 600 Lumens.)

  Excellent headlamp, very powerful and extremely bright light.
  Its use will be for night fishing and hiking.
  Highly recommended, you will enjoy it for any purpose you need it for...
  The black mark shown in the photo is the light sensor it has, when it comes into contact with strong or even low light, the intensity level decreases.
  I have a video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gcDET3s0gzs&t=23s
