The compact, dependable Petzl e+LITE® headlamp is a great replacement for that bulky flashlight in your glove box or emergency kit!

  • Uses 2 CR2032 lithium batteries (included) that have a shelf life of up to 10 years, offering worry-free operation when you need it most
  • Designed to operate in extreme temperatures, from -22°F to +140°F (-30°C to +60°C)
  • 3 white LEDs provide even lighting throughout your field of view, without blank spots in the beam; throws a beam up to 19m
  • Single red LED aids your ability to see in the dark without experiencing night blindness caused by a rush of bright light against the eye
  • White and red flashing modes can be used for signaling
  • Rotating lockable power switch controls light modes: maximum, economy and flashing strobe
  • For added versatility, the lamp can be removed from its headstrap and, using its integrated clip, mounted to a belt, cap brim or pack strap
  • Light source rotates 360° on a ball joint—increasing versatility in tight quarters
  • Removable elastic band features a cordlock that allows the headlamp to be worn on the head or wrist, or secured to a fixed object
  • Cordlock doubles as a long-range whistle than can be used to signal for help; features an SOS Morse code illustration on the side
  • Waterproof down to 1m, making the e+LITE safe to use in a downpour
  • Included protective carrying case measures a mere 3.25 x 1.75 in.

Please note: Petzl products can only be shipped to U.S. addresses.

      Comments about Petzl e+LITE Headlamp:

      I use this head lamp anytime I am camping. Every camper needs to have a headlamp. Having both hands free to hanndle after dark chores and navigating to the bathroom/ tree is invaluable.

      I started off with a bulky headlamp that had a great beam of light, but was awkward on my head, and I could never get the strap tightness right. (It left a band mark across my forehead)

      The first time I purchased this light was at a different store, and I fell in love. I like that this head lamp has several light features, including regular white light, brighter white light, red light (good for not ruining everyone's night vision)and even blinking red and white lights.

      A great advantage to this light is that it has a simple lock function. Simply move the tab all the way to either side of the unit and the light is securely locked. It wont easily come on in your pocket or bag, draining the battery.

      It also comes with a great handy light weight caring case. Perfect for caring the headlamp and even an extra set of batteries!

      I misplaced my first lamp. But I happily went to REI to buy the same lamp again. My mother then purchased hers, then my aunt got the same one, and finally we purchased one for my dad as a gift (he had been using my old bulky headlamp)He really likes the clip in the device that can be used to clip to the bill of his baseball cap.

      This unit is so light and compfy, I often forget it is on my head and sleep with it on!

      No cons at all. And this is the first product I have ever written a review for on REI!

          I love this thing! The switch won't accidentally go on in your backpack but you can set it so that it's easy to turn on even when wearing gloves or mittens. The adjustable beam is great and the whole thing is very light. Even has a rugged little carrying case. Flawless design. Tip o' the hat, Petzl!
