Description

Lots of light when it counts. The UT6 gives up to 1600 lumens and reaches up to 195 metres. On fast descents and technical trails you see well in advance where you're heading. Choose warm, neutral or cool white light depending on fog, rain or dry weather.

Two ways to run. With a slider you choose between High-Performance for maximum light and Long-Runtime for the longest burn time. On Long-Runtime it lasts up to 31 hours at 150 lumens. You swap the 4000 mAh 18650 battery for a spare on the go and charge it via USB-C.

Built for tough nights. The lamp housing is made of magnesium, waterproof to IP68 and survives a 2-metre drop. You pull the Rapid Reel headband tight with one hand, and three buttons let you control everything without searching.

For ultras and long nights in the mountains, this is a top choice. For short evening runs a lighter lamp is more comfortable.

Why Nitecore?

For a short evening run you want a lamp you barely feel, for a night in the mountains you want every bit of light there is. One brand that does both well is handy. That's exactly why we carry Nitecore at Trail.NL.

Nitecore makes headlamps from ultralight to very powerful, plus power banks and batteries you take along on the go. Many lamps charge via USB-C and some also run on regular batteries when the battery is empty. So you choose the lamp that suits your runs.

For us, Nitecore is above all a practical choice: plenty of light for little weight, smart battery solutions and a lamp for every distance.

Frequently asked questions

How long does the UT6 last?

According to Nitecore in Long-Runtime: 3.5 hours at 1600 lumens, 5.5 hours at 800 lumens, 13 hours at 400 lumens and 31 hours at 150 lumens. In High-Performance the times are shorter, but brightness stays high for longer.

Can I swap the battery?

Yes. The UT6 runs on a 4000 mAh 18650 battery (NL1840R). With a spare battery you keep going without a break. Charging is done in the lamp via USB-C.

What's the difference between High-Performance and Long-Runtime?

In High-Performance the lamp holds the high settings as long as possible. In Long-Runtime it uses the battery more sparingly, so you have light for longer.

Is the UT6 waterproof?

Yes, IP68: up to 2 metres underwater. It survives a 2-metre drop.
