The Fenix HM70R rechargeable headlamp (Fenix part no. FX-HM70R) puts up to 1600 lumens on your forehead, powered by a single high-capacity 21700 battery. A white spotlight, a neutral white floodlight and red light modes cover trail walking, camp chores, reading and work around the shop. A large, glove-friendly switch makes it easy to run with cold hands, and the hidden USB-C port keeps charging simple. For hiking, running, camping or hands-free work, it is a capable all-around Fenix light.
