Small, light and bright, the compact Petzl Zipka® Plus 2 headlamp features the Zip retractable cord system, making it 25% more compact than the Petzl Tikka Plus® 2 headlamp.

  • Zip Dyneema® retractable cord allows the headlamp to be worn on the head or wrist, or attached to any other support, such as a tent pole or bicycle seatpost
  • Single high-output LED provides even, white lighting throughout your field of vision with no blank spots in the beam; special lens optimizes the reach of the beam to 35m
  • Red LED positioned to the side of the white LED lets you preserve your night vision or use the headlamp as a blinking light to increase your visibility in urban environments
  • Push-button switch easily changes between 3 white lighting modes (high, low and flashing) so you can choose the appropriate light level for the task at hand
  • Also change between 2 red lighting modes (continuous and blinking)
  • White light on low level provides up to 140 hrs. of use and on high up to 55 hrs.; red continuous provides up to 100 hrs.
  • Hold down the on/off switch to change between red and white lighting modes
  • Battery charge indicator light comes on when the beam distance diminishes to 5m and when there is only 50% battery life remaining for proximity lighting
  • Provides IPX4 water resistance for reliability in inclement weather
  • Headlamp tilts to point light where you need it
  • Compatible with the Petzl Adapt Tikka 2 system (not included), which allows you to quickly and easily attach the light in a variety of places
  • Battery compartment is hinged to allow simpler access than the previous version of the Zipka; compartment closes easily and securely
  • Runs on 3 AAA alkaline batteries, included; Zipka Plus 2 is compatible with lithium batteries, which are lighter than alkaline batteries and perform well in cold temperatures

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

Imported.

      Comments about Petzl Zipka Plus 2 LED Headlamp:

      Great headlamp! The retractable cord system is wonderful. Not having to fuss with readjusting the straps if you wearing a hat or not having a hat on during the same hike. The different settings of the lamp is great too for night-time reading without blinding anyone and the long range of visibility helps when tramping through the woods. I love it!
