NITECORE NU25 Headlamp – 360 LM, First Gen 2017, Rechargeable

The NITECORE NU25 is a compact, rechargeable headlamp designed to adapt to a wide range of night time tasks and outdoor adventures. By combining three independent light sources in a lightweight package, it delivers flexibility from early dawn runs to late-night campsite chores without weighing you down.

Bright, versatile main output

The primary light source is a CREE XP-G2 S3 LED that can reach up to 360 lumens, with a practical throw of about 88 yards. This balance of brightness and reach makes it suitable for quick navigation on trails, roadside checks during evening rides, or finding a safe path through a dimly lit space. The beam is engineered to feel precise and reliable, so you can decide your pace with confidence.

• 360 lumen main beam for broad visibility
• Throw capable enough for distant targets while remaining comfortable up close
• Rechargeable power source for repeated use on outdoor trips

Night-vision and color accuracy at your fingertips

Two auxiliary options expand the NU25’s utility. The red LED preserves night vision, making it ideal for nighttime photography, reading maps, or stargazing without washing out stars or important details. The auxiliary high CRI LED provides a warm flood beam that renders colors more naturally, which is helpful for close-up tasks, reading, and detailed work in low light.

• Auxiliary red LED supports night vision and low-light tasks
• High CRI auxiliary beam offers natural color rendering for close work

Compact, lightweight design you can rely on

Weighing less than an ounce, the NU25 is small enough to slide into a pocket and easy to wear for extended periods. Dual switches on the top of the unit allow quick access to the main and auxiliary lights, so you can switch modes without removing the headlamp. This first-generation NU25, released in 2017, represents a thoughtful approach to dependable hands-free lighting in a compact form.

• Ultra-lightweight, pocket-friendly design
• Dual top switches for easy access to primary and auxiliary lights
• First generation NU25 from 2017, known for practical, straightforward operation
