Powerful and Versatile Lighting

The Petzl Actik Headlamp produces up to 450 lumens while maintaining a lightweight 98 g profile. Its wide beam provides uniform illumination for seeing nearby objects and the ground comfortably, while the mixed beam combines wide and focused lighting for improved visibility when moving between close and distant areas.

Three white-light levels allow you to select between maximum burn time, a balanced standard setting, and maximum power depending on the activity.

Red Lighting for Night Vision

The Petzl Actik also includes continuous red lighting, which helps preserve night vision while reducing the chance of disturbing people around you. A red strobe mode is available for signaling your location, particularly in emergency situations.

Simple One-Button Operation

A single button provides quick access to the different brightness levels and lighting colors. The adjustable plate lets you tilt the lamp up or down to direct illumination where it is needed.

A built-in battery indicator displays the battery level each time the headlamp is switched on or off, helping you keep track of remaining power.

HYBRID CONCEPT Power Options

The ACTIK uses Petzl’s HYBRID CONCEPT design, giving you flexibility in how you power the headlamp. It comes with three AAA/LR03 batteries and is also compatible with the CORE rechargeable battery, available separately.

The headlamp automatically detects the type of energy source and adjusts its lighting performance accordingly. It supports alkaline, lithium, and Ni-MH rechargeable batteries.

Comfortable and Practical Design

The symmetrical headband is easy to adjust and can be removed for washing. A LOCK function prevents the headlamp from accidentally switching on while stored or transported.

The included storage pouch can also be used to transform the headlamp into a lantern, adding another practical lighting option for camping and outdoor use. A phosphorescent reflector makes it easier to locate the headlamp in the dark.

Helmet and Bicycle Mount Compatibility

The Petzl Actik is compatible with HELMET ADAPT and BIKE ADAPT 2 mounts, allowing it to be attached to a variety of compatible helmets or a bicycle.

Important: The Petzl Actik is not certified for road use. When used in areas subject to traffic regulations, Petzl lights do not replace required standardized road lighting.
