Nitecore sent me the new NU25 headlamps to try out. Are they still the best ultralight headlamps on the market?

New Nitecore NU25 Sports Model: amzn.to/3D9HI8j
New Nitecore NU25 Ultralight Model: amzn.to/3XqCBZd
Old Nitecore NU25: amzn.to/3sdaCiE
Petzl Bindi: amzn.to/3XFeyGl
- Two different styles
- UL (ultralight)
- Sports model (heavier headband)
- Weight (slightly heavier than older model - hard to compare, since old model weight didn’t include headband (1.9oz with headband on old one) - need to weigh them all)
- UL: 1.59oz
- Sports: 1.98oz
- No longer has 1 Lumen “moonlight” mode - changed to 6 Lumens
- Slightly more confusing button/operation configuration
- Still has lock mode - long press both buttons (don’t like the flashing light to indicate locked mode)
- Red light will cycle through some white light modes (Mix, Spotlight, Floodlight) - not really a fan of this one. If you’re wanting a red light, you want it to avoid white light. Why mix those?
- Really like the shock cord headband option - also, the shock cord is reflective!
- Like that it’s now USB-C charger instead of old version (micro USB) - fewer cords I have to carry into the backcountry
- Old = 360 Lumen max, New = 400 Lumen max
- No “Turbo” mode
- Throw is shorter in new version (70yds vs. 88yds)
- Max run time is 45 hours (in ULTRALOW mode) vs. 16 hours with old version
- Much better battery level indicator (old one was flashing lights and I could never remember what each pattern meant - now, it’s just a scale)
