Light Choices and Signalization
For power and versatility, this headlamp is equipped with a white high-output LED and a red LED. The white LED delivers 60 lumens in maximum mode and lights up to 60 meters. In economic mode, it can reach a burn-time of 160 hours. The red LED provides lighting to preserve night vision or to become a flashing light for safety.
In addition to the flashing mode, the Tikka XP2 provides an integrated whistle that allows you to call for help.
User-Friendly Operation
The Tikka XP2 features an electronic push-button switch that lets you choose between three white lighting modes(maximum, economic, and flashing) and two red lighting modes (continuous and flashing). Also, this switch is designed to lessen the likelihood of the lamp turning on during storage. And to ensure that the Tikka XP2 is ready when you are, it offers a battery charge indicator light that will come on when the headlamp illuminates for less than five meters and there is only 50% burn-time remaining for proximity lighting. When it's time to change the batteries, you'll find that the battery compartment is quick and easy to access.
Finally, the adjustable headband provides a custom fit for comfortable wear, while water-resistant construction helps guard against the elements.
The Tikka XP2 comes with three AAA alkaline batteries and is backed by a three-year warranty.
About Petzl: Innovative Designs, Practical Approach
Petzl, a family company, was born out of Fernand Petzl's passion for caving. One of the leading experts of his generation, Fernand spent his life experimenting with vertical progression techniques, and he invented equipment that radically changed the status quo. The Petzl company applied these underground tools and solutions to other vertical environments: first to the mountains--rock climbing and mountaineering--and then to the professional sector, with work and rescue at-height. The Petzl company quickly became known as the foremost innovator in the vertical world and has been associated with all major underground, alpine, and Himalayan adventures since the 1970s.
Today, Petzl is the leader of hands-free lighting. Petzl revolutionized the industry starting with the Zoom, and then the Tikka--the first compact light. The company moved forward to introduce the state-of-the-art e+Lite and Ultra, and it continues to work with outdoor sports enthusiasts and professionals to create innovative, practical, high-quality lighting and climbing products.
