Product Description
The Petzl Zipka Headlamp is the smallest and lightest headlamp in Petzl's lineup. You won't find a Backcountry.com employee out in the mountains without one. We use it to return safely from climbing and mountain biking epics. But housewives, dentists, and nearly everyone else have told us they find the Zipka just as handy. At 2¼ ounces, there's no excuse for venturing into the backcountry without one of these in your pack. Three LED bulbs powered by 3 AAA batteries (included) cast bright white light over relatively short distances (10m), making the Zipka perfect for trail hiking, setting up camp, and reading. The Zipka is the same headlamp as the Tikka, except that a retractable wire strap system replaces the elastic headband, making it even more compact and lightweight than the Tikka. You can also attach the headlamp to your wrist, tent pole or anywhere else you can think of.
Bottom Line: MacGyver might be able to construct a smaller headlamp using duct tape, tin foil and a potato, but we prefer the simplicity of the Petzl Zipka.
