Description

Light for the whole night. The NU53 gives up to 1800 lumens and reaches 175 metres. Thanks to the 6000 mAh battery it lasts 9 hours at 1300 lumens and 37 hours at 150 lumens. So you can get through a long ultra without recharging.

Three types of light. Besides the powerful main LED you have a CRI LED with natural colours for close-up use, and red light that preserves your night vision. A sensor dims the light when you look at something up close, so you don't dazzle yourself.

Made for tough conditions. The lamp is waterproof to IP68 and survives a 2-metre drop. A lock stops it switching on in your bag, and four indicator lights show how much power you have left. Charging is via USB-C.

At 151 grams, this is a lamp for those who value burn time over weight. 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.
