Meet the NU25 MCT UL Ultralight Headlamp

Tiny in the hand yet mighty in performance, the Nitecore NU25 MCT UL headlamp delivers 400 lumens of bright, dependable light in a package that weighs just 1.65 oz. Its compact form is built for backpackers, hikers, trail runners, and daily tasks where hands-free illumination matters. The combination of light weight, solid beam distance, and versatile color options makes it a practical companion for late-night chores around the campsite or early morning excursions.

Four color temperatures at a tap

Switch between warm, natural, cool white, and a dedicated red mode with a simple press. Warm light is easy on the eyes and helps reduce glare in foggy or damp conditions, while natural white offers an accurate color balance for everyday tasks. Cool white enhances outdoor contrast for navigating trails and spotting details in dim environments. The red light preserves night vision for map-reading, camp setup, or late-night tasks without washing out the surroundings.
