Excellent lamp
Comfortable, great settings. Love that it comes with 2 rechargeable batteries (so you don’t get caught out), as well as taking normal AAA’s.
Designed for trail running, camping, and versatile outdoor use, the Nitecore UT27 delivers reliable, adaptable lighting in a compact, durable design that’s easy to use.
TrueVision+ Technology – Multi-faceted optical dual-lens system with over 94% light transmission, delivering a seamless blend of long-range and wide-beam lighting. This setup ensures uniform, soft light that reduces eye strain over extended use, perfect for intense, long-distance events.
White, Warm, and Red Light Modes - Versatile beam options: White and warm lights each provide a mix of floodlight and long-range spotlight up to 500 lumens. When you need extra reach, switch to the full 800-lumen turbo mode—ideal for spotting trail markers, signs, or road conditions in the dark.
Red Light Options for Night Vision - Use the red light in constant or flashing modes, which are perfect for preserving night vision and signaling without overwhelming others around you.
Incredibly Lightweight and Comfortable - Designed for all-day wear, the UT27 Pro weighs just 74 grams with the bracket, headband, and battery included. The headband is reflective for safety, features a breathable hollow design, and includes a silicone strip to keep sweat out of your eyes.
Dual Power Source Flexibility - The UT27 Pro can run on its proprietary rechargeable battery or standard AAA batteries, giving you multiple options for power. A glow-in-the-dark battery compartment makes swaps easy, and the HLB1300 battery charges in under 2 hours via USB-C.
User-Friendly Controls and Versatility - Dual buttons allow easy toggling between beam colors, even on the go. Comes with a diffuser sock, transforming the headlamp into a compact lantern for campsite use.



This headlamp goes beyond the basics to give you the right light for every condition.
The UT27 Pro offers The cool white beam provides crisp brightness, ideal for spotting details and navigating dark paths. The warm light mode reduces glare, cutting through fog, rain, and mist for close-up tasks in low-visibility conditions. Together, they create a balanced beam that eases eye strain and improves depth perception, perfect for varied terrain and extended use.
The red light modes offer low-impact illumination when subtlety is key. A constant red light preserves night vision, making it useful for reading maps or moving discreetly without disturbing wildlife or others nearby. The flashing red light functions as an effective emergency signal, helping to ensure safety during rescue situations or low-light work environments.
Built for lasting performance, the UT27 Pro runs up to 10 hours on its rechargeable battery, with the flexibility to switch to 3x AAA batteries if needed. This dual-power setup means you’re prepared for extended missions, fieldwork, or any setting that requires a dependable light source.
If you’re looking for a headlamp that adapts to your needs, the UT27 Pro delivers reliability and versatility wherever you go.

Comfortable, great settings. Love that it comes with 2 rechargeable batteries (so you don’t get caught out), as well as taking normal AAA’s.
Great product. Easy to use, has handy features including red light. The battery lasts and it is so helpful having the spare and AAA option for the longer tramps so we don’t need to worry about charging.
A great light, nice and bright if you want it to be or dimmer or red even if you want that. The warm white option as well as the bluer white light is a bit gimmicky perhaps but might be useful for some people. It doesn't have the fabulous zoom feature of the LED lenser that I was replacing it with had, but it does come with a second battery that I wasn't expecting. Good value.
A great lightweight option with a good level of illumination. The yellow light is much easier on your eyes when using it to move through the bush and hills. The second battery and ease of charger is a winner.
Lightweight doesn't bounce too much when running and comfortable headband. 800 lumens seems bright enough for night trails.
