NITECORE HA13 (2026) RGB Headlamp 350lm

Most headlamps stick to white light, but the NITECORE HA13 (2026) adds full RGB auxiliary LEDs to a robust white-light workhorse. Red preserves night vision, green reduces glare for map reading, and blue aids in signaling or creative tasks. The dual-button interface keeps white and RGB modes separate, so you can switch without cycling through unwanted settings. A 60-degree tilt mechanism lets you angle the beam precisely, and the IP66 rating means dust and powerful water jets won't stop you. Powered by three AAA batteries (alkaline or Ni-MH), it's easy to find replacements anywhere.
