TheFenix HM65R-DT is an upgraded version of the reliable headlamp, whose two light emitters with a total light output of 1,500 lumens and an extremely durable yet extremely lightweight magnesium housing make the model suitable for the toughest situations.
The flashlight has a lightweight and rugged magnesium alloy body, a material that is resistant to mechanical damage, corrosion and weather conditions. The headlamp has a compact and lightweight design with no external wires, making the flashlight very convenient to use and great for any form of outdoor activity, from cave exploration, camping and evening jogging.
The flashlight's main light source is a Luminus SST40 LED with a cool 6500 K color, which emits a maximum output of 1300 lumens. The optical system uses an OP (Orange Peel) reflector, which equalizes and softly disperses the light beam, so that the beam evenly illuminates objects up to 170 meters away.
The smaller Luminus SST20 LED with a color temperature of 3000 K supported by a smooth SMO reflector provides concentrated light with a warm color, so it's great for fog and bad weather conditions. The flashlight has, of course, an angle adjustment, which is done by tilting the entire flashlight module.
The Fenix HM65R-DT headlamp is powered by a 18650 rechargeable battery (included), which can also be replaced by 2 disposable CR123 batteries. However, we recommend using the 18650 battery, which guarantees full light performance and longer flashlight operation. This model features a USB-C port, which allows you to charge the battery with a high current of 1.5 A without removing it from the device. This is a very functional solution in a situation where you plan to work for a long time with a headlamp.
Thanks to the use of two buttons, the operation of the flashlight is very simple and convenient and, most importantly, does not require removing the flashlight from the head. Each emitter is operated by a separate switch, which is also used to change the brightness level. The long-range SST40 emitter offers 3 modes: high (1300 lumens), medium (400 lumens), low (130 lumens). The smaller SST20 em itterprovides three alternative modes: high (400 lumens), medium (130 lumens), and low (5 lumens). The flashlight's output can be increased up to 1,500 lumens by turning on two LEDs simultaneously.
The Fenix HM65R-DT headlamp is equipped with reverse polarity protection to prevent incorrect battery installation. The flashlight features a high IP68 rating, which means that it is resistant to dust, dust, heavy rain and even full immersion in water (2 m) for 30 minutes. Therefore, the HM65R can be successfully used in all weather conditions, for virtually any physical activity. Convenient carrying of the flashlight on the head is ensured by an upgraded rubber band, which wicks away perspiration and is equipped with reflective inserts to increase our visibility and safety when moving at night on the road or trail. The HM65R-DT uses a constant-current driver, which guarantees longer flashlight runtime.
Included: rechargeable lithium-ion battery ARB-L18-3400, rubber headband, spare O-ring, USB type C charging cable.
