Power and Versatility
This headlamp provides dependable performance and features you can count on for use in both backcountry and urban settings. Its light beam is easy to aim, and you can choose among five different lighting modes, so you get the right illumination exactly where you need it. Whether you're camping in the woods, backpacking along a trail, or working on your car in the driveway, the water resistant Tikka Plus2 is the ideal companion.

Two Integrated Light Sources
The Tikka Plus2 headlamp integrates two light sources for versatility: one white, high-output LED and one red LED. The white LED delivers 50 lumens in maximum mode and projects up to 35 meters. In economic mode, it can reach a burn-time of 140 hours. In addition, the red LED provides spare lighting to preserve night vision or to become a strobe light for safety use. For emergency or locating purposes, a flashing mode has been added to enhance the security that a headlamp provides.

To save you time, the Tikka Plus2 features last-mode memory, which keeps the last mode used in memory until the next use. And to maximize versatility, the Petzl lens optimizes the reach of the beam.

User-Friendly, Flexible Design
Water resistant and built to last, the Tikka Plus2 is compatible with Petzl's ADAPT system (sold separately), which lets you detach the headlamp casing from the headband and attach it to a helmet, backpack, or jacket. It's also very easy to use, thanks to its easy-open battery pack, electronic push-button switch, and battery charge indicator.

The Tikka Plus2 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.

    As a work light this thing is great. It's comfortable and has a beam that is bright and not so focused that you have to keep moving your head to light up different spots of where you are working. The memory feature means the light turns on the the last-used setting with a single button push. The small size and light weight means it is easy to wear.

    Then, I discovered that in addition to being an excellent work light that it's also great for reading in bed. The tilt feature allows me to sit/lie comfortably and have the light stay on the page. Having a red light means I can easily read at night without disturbing my wife, our daughter, or the dog (depending on who's in bed with me at the time). Also, I've found that, for me at least, it improves the contrast of what I'm reading.

    The thing is light, comfortable, doesn't get in the way when I'm lying down, and illuminates the entire page I'm looking at without having to keep juggling the... Read more

    I want to start off by saying, I researched the h*** out of headlamps before deciding upon the tikka plus 2. This is the first headlamp I had bought in over 8 years, I am very impressed with the advancements in technology and how well they were applied in making the tikka plus 2. It weighs almost nothing and has a great click system for angling the lamp in a certain direction. The red light is awesome for not disturbing others at night. For $30, you can't find a better headlamp.

    I had previously owned a Princton Tec Quad and never had a Petzl lamp but this is well made with some style if that matters to you. The three modes for white light, high, low and flashing. The red light only has two modes of consistent and flashing.

    It is very sturdy offers a great beam of light for the white light with only one bulb. I have had it for just 3 weeks so no experiences with it running low yet but I am using it sparingly.
