4.0 out of 5 stars Great with a few niggles
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 4 March 2021
Colour Name: GreenVerified Purchase
Very nice product. It would be even better if it had more water proofing as this is suited to occasional splashes, I would like to be able to feel confident wearing this in the rain without worrying about damaging the unit. This headtorch uses PWM to control the brightness settings, I can notice this occasionally which if you are sensitive to PWM can be slightly irritating, I would love to see a fully regulated current controlled version available. Overall these are only a few niggles, and the retractable head band makes this a unique, lightweight and very pocketable torch, so I do recommend it!

Habe die Kopflampe ca 1 Jahr Tolles Patent mit der Schnur verwende sie zum arbeiten im Winter fast jeden Tag bei normalen Bewegungen bleibt sie wo sie hingehört fällt einem die Leiter an der Dachrinne um und man hängt dann auf selbiger und hat dan ca 1,5-2 m um wieder auf den Boden zukommen und löst das Problem durch abrollen kann sie verrutschen fällt einem aber nicht vom Kopf und ein Halsband wird daraus auch nicht

年を経るに従って明るく改良されるのがフランス製では珍しいと思います。
価格が安定しないのが、ユーザーにとってはマイナスですね。

4.0 out of 5 stars PETZL - ZIPKA Headlamp, 300 lumens works great!
Reviewed in the United States on 13 March 2020
Colour Name: BlackVerified Purchase
This 300 lumen Zipka did not disappoint. I’ve had several Petzl Zipka models for around 19 years and each newer version is a little better. The “headband” is ingenious, comfortable, and makes the headlamp very compact. Just don’t let it “snap back” when removing it from your head. I’ve always retracted it back gently and have never had a problem with the mechanism. The red LED is great for nighttime in a hotel, tent, cabin, etc as opposed to a bright white light. With it you don’t disturb kids or spousal unit if they’re sleeping or if you don’t want to reduce your night vision when star gazing. The three levels of white light is nice with an even spread on the beam pattern.
The reason for the 4 star as opposed to 5 is twofold, and they are minor flaws.
1) I wish it had a lockout so you don’t activate it in a backpack, pocket, or pouch accidentally. It’s never happened with any of the Zipkas that’s I’ve owned, but it has with other push button activated headlamps so it’s just a matter of time.
2) If you could angle the beam a little up or down, that would be great. It is accomplished by now by moving the light slightly up or down the curve of your forehead. It does have a wide beam so that minimizes the need to do it.
All in all, these minor shortcomings are not enough to make me abandon it as my favorite headlamp, and I’ve had over ten different kinds and different brands over the last forty years. If I were to lose or break this one, I would purchase another one of the same kind in an instant.

4.0 out of 5 stars Compact, lightweight, & bright.
Reviewed in the United States on 6 May 2022
Colour Name: GreenVerified Purchase
1st time customer to Petzl products & I gotta say it's awesome. This will be an addition to my Nitecore headlamp, which is my main, whereas this will be backup. That said, I intend to use it regularly for it's "break-in" period to see how it fairs vs. the rest of my gear.

Out of the box:
Pros - *compact & very light, crafty headband mechanism (which attributes to its compactness), multiple color outputs, multiple modes/outputs for both colors, surprisingly bright for its size (though I feel the same way with my Nitecore headlamp), easy to change batteries, uses common household AAAs (however you can purchase Petzl's batt. pack separately if you wish), long battery life (according to Petzl's included specs/instructions; will test myself with more use), water resistant, glow in the dark ring around LED (not sure the exact purpose of this, but I like it), feels robust, & comes with everything you need to use it right out of the box. The button functions are very intuitive as well & easy to remember.

Cons: The main negative aspect for me was that it doesn't fit as snug around my head as I'd like; I guarantee that if I were to run/jog with it on, it'd come off my head & there's no way to adjust it or make it tighter. All the tension comes from the spring in the retracting mechanism. 2nd, there's no adjustment on the LED throw itself, as some others have said, you basically adjust it by moving it up & down on the contour of your forehead.
