The HA13 (2026) is a versatile headlamp designed for hiking, camping, night running, wildlife observation, fishing and a wide range of outdoor activities. This new generation combines a 350-lumen white light with three additional light sources: red, green and blue.
Its 4-core NiteLab UHE LED delivers a maximum output of 350 lumens, a beam distance of up to 80 metres and a peak beam intensity of 1,595 cd. The unibody optical lens system with multiple facets provides practical illumination for a wide variety of outdoor situations.
Four white-light brightness levels are available: 350, 170, 60 and 6 lumens. The HA13 also provides 350-lumen SOS and beacon modes for emergency use and signalling.
Two RGB LEDs provide three additional light colours, each offering specific advantages.
The 5-lumen red light helps preserve night vision and reduces insect attraction. It is particularly useful for stargazing, night photography and situations where discreet illumination is required. A slow-flashing red mode is also available.
The 10-lumen green light is easily perceived by the human eye and can be useful for wildlife observation, map reading and viewing markers or signals.
The 3-lumen blue light is particularly suited to night fishing, as it is less likely to disturb fish.
The HA13 features a convenient dual power system. It comes with three widely available AAA alkaline batteries, making replacement easy when travelling or spending extended periods outdoors. It is also compatible with the optional NITECORE HLB1500 1,500 mAh rechargeable Li-ion battery pack, which features a built-in USB-C charging port.
With the included AAA batteries, maximum runtime reaches 94 hours at 6 lumens. Using the optional HLB1500 battery pack increases maximum runtime to 160 hours at the same output.
Two buttons with different shapes and tactile surfaces allow easy one-handed operation and make the controls easier to distinguish by touch. A lockout mode prevents accidental activation during storage and transport.
The housing is made from special PC material designed to provide impact and low-temperature resistance. The HA13 withstands drops from up to 1 metre and carries an IP66 dust and water resistance rating.
At just 59 g including the bracket and headband but excluding batteries, the HA13 remains comfortable for prolonged outdoor use.
The included diffusing stuff sack provides convenient storage and can also diffuse the headlamp's light to create softer area illumination around a campsite or bivouac.

Performance with AAA batteries was measured by NITECORE using three 1.5 V alkaline AAA batteries. Rechargeable battery performance was measured using one NITECORE HLB1500 1,500 mAh Li-ion battery pack. Testing was conducted in accordance with ANSI/PLATO FL 1-2019 at an ambient temperature of 26°C. Actual performance may vary depending on battery use and environmental conditions.
