Next Generation Workhorse! - NiteCore NU33 Headlamp Review

As many are aware of, my go to headlamp for countless years has been the NiteCore NU32; it’s a workhorse, performs well, but wasn’t perfect.
The NU33 headlamp builds upon the overall design of the NU32 and corrects the issues that it had.

USB-C Charging

Excellent charging port cover - the NU32 cover absolutely sucked and barely worked
Comfortable

Good button sensation even with medium thickness gloves
Review Cons :
Head strap comes loose over time
Non-removable battery may be a con for some
Lack of a dimming option for the red mode - it’s bright which I like but there are times when a lower setting would be beneficial
Summary :
After running this headlamp for the last couple of weeks I have to say that I really like it. It doesn’t have any glaring problems, the performance is good, the weight is good and the price is also good.
To be honest, after reviewing the terrible NiteCore UT27 I wasn’t sure that I would take a look another one of their headlamps….seriously, that headlamp was absolutely terrible but being that I liked the NU32 so much I gambled on this one and I’m pleasantly surprised.

Based on your review of the NU32, I bought one. And I've had it for years, and it still is a great headlamp. I am 48 years old, with a 22 year old son. The NU33 will be my Christmas present to him this year, thank you for the review. I have never been disapointed with a product that I have purchased based on a review of yours. I have utmost respect for the way you conduct your "Agenda Free" channel, it matters, (integrity).

The NU25 is the most popular headlamp of Appalachian Trail long distance hikers. It's small, light and relatively rugged and has red and white light functions with several settings each. The feature that I am particularly fond of is the ability to lock the switches by pressing them both, simultaneously, thus preventing the light from being accidentally turned on in your pack. There are numerous tutorials on KZfaq on how to replace the original headband with shock cord and a cord lock to lighten it even further than the stock unit. It's awesome! Get the yellow one so you won't be as likely to lose it. It's TINY!

Honestly, I've used an nu25 for years with the same water resistance level and it's never been a problem. Have hiked in rain, snow, paddle trips, etc and it's been fine. Unless y'all want to swim in the lake at night or something, I don't see why it needs to be that waterproof.

For me it works great, but having the NU33 as a backup headlamp would make sense. Thanks

I use a Black Diamond which is so old I have no idea what model. It still serves its purpose which is all that matters, but I do like the idea of a rechargeable battery. I always have solar charging capability on my excursion and would like to ditch carrying extra batteries. I actually considered the NU32 after seeing your frequent use. Will now take a look at the NU33.

For those that want that light with removable batts: get the Black Diamond Spot 350. Almost the same lamp, without the turbo (that ramps down anyway) and light and great. It takes 3xAAA - put some Eneloops in there and you're ready for anything. 👍 Oh, and it's way cheaper.

I recently purchased their NU25 I believe? Anyways, loving that little light! Tiny, very light, puts out all the light I need from a headlamp and I really like the fact that there is a separate switch for red light mode so one doesn't have to start with white light and then cycle through the lighting modes with a selector switch. Plus the red light mode on that light has a low, high, and flash settings. I was eyeballing some of their other offerings, but having that separate switch for red light mode was the deciding factor for me.

@usamade5943 Жыл бұрын

The buttons on the 33 are much better quality, the spotlight is more powerful, the high cri light (50 lumens) encompasses a larger and more uniform viewing area for reading than the nu32's, (19 lumens) though the nu32's dual lights emit more white light while the 33's single one has a somewhat yellow tint. The battery power indicator is more pleasing on the 33, but the strap loops twice around my large head on the 32, while the 33 only has a single loop. That explains always having to adjust the headband when active. The part that rests on your head on the 33 has the strap directly on your skin (or hat) while the 32 has it in front of the plastic piece, so it never gets stained by the oils on your skin like the 33 will. As mentioned, the usb cover is much easier to use on the 33. On the 32, there's a certain technique that's easy to do to snug the cover correctly. I call it "the push and wiggle" with the tip of your index finger.

You say that it only puts out 200lm on the high setting. Do you have a comparison with the nu32 on this feature?

Can u do a video with the beam stale head lamps I would like to see ur thoughts on them

Did you see their USB powererd lights? They can be straped to your hiking bags and powered by a portable power bank. You can buy a usb switch to so it can be switched on or off as I believe they don't come with one, I can be wrong. However how your backpack can have extra light too. I like it and will get some for my back pack next year.

Strength and honor, brother. With reviewing the products like you do. Maybe they will finally see their mistakes and improve the product 🤔. Where is the product made?

Luke check out the Fenix HL60R it's by far the best headlamp I've ever used, more lumens replaceable 18650 battery heavy duty construction aluminum body but still light weight enough to be used without center over head band.

I love my Olight head lamp, simple, rugged, waterproof, light weight and the battery can be replaced when it wears out some day

My strap had troubles holding adjustment. I finally adjusted it and then placed a paperclip over where the two parts of the strap overlap. Problem solved and adds only a fraction to the weight.

The NU33 is quite a bright Headlamp plus a Ton of feature but it has one major drawback, the Brightest Lamp goes bad after some time it became a strobe with a very short flash gap I thought it was a real strobe but its actually not its the lamp that goes bad I bought another cheaper model with some almost the same feature like different level of brightness and the red light and what do you know after some time the same problem occurred the brightest spot light became a strobe with the same short gap flashes, so I went for a different brand I went for a SILVA 400 Lumens and currently testing it I hope it will not have the same problem
