Description

So light you forget it's there. The NU20 Classic hangs on a thin, elastic cord band instead of a wide headband. It doesn't press anywhere, even with a cap or beanie on. You notice the difference most on fast, short runs: nothing bounces with every step.

Three kinds of light in one small lamp. The white light is enough for a forest trail or park in the dark. You use the soft high-CRI light up close, for example for your map or your gel, and the red light keeps your eyes adjusted to the dark.

Handy as a backup lamp. Many ultras require a second lamp in your mandatory kit, and this one takes up hardly any space or weight. Charging takes just over an hour via USB-C. The battery is built in, so you can't swap it on the go.

Regularly running through whole nights? Then take a lamp with longer runtime. For short runs and as a backup, this one is just right.

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.
