In short

The Petzl Tikka Core is a compact, rechargeable headlamp designed for simplicity and everyday adventure. Delivering 450 lumens, it’s a trusted companion for evening hikes, camp setups, or everyday use after dark. Its single-button operation makes it intuitive, and its lightweight design fits easily in a pocket or backpack. The glow-in-the-dark reflector helps you locate it in low light, while the red beam preserves night vision and avoids dazzling others. The reflective headband enhances visibility at night. Thanks to Petzl’s Hybrid Concept, the Tikka Core runs on the included Core rechargeable battery or three standard AAA batteries for added flexibility.
