No one wants to be left in the dark. And that becomes even more important, even critical, in a genuine emergency. Ultra-lightweight and highly compact, Petzl’s e+LITE headlamp is designed to be the one to always have with you. Thanks to its robust carry case, it is always ready to use and can be stored with its batteries for ten years in a backpack, running vest or vehicle emergency kit. Its minuscule size and weight also make it the perfect back-up headlamp. Featuring a white or red, continuous 30-lumen light or strobe setting, it will guarantee you get spotted. The headband also features an integrated SOS whistle for signalling. In short, you’d be a fool to go out there without it.

As a brand, Petzl was born in the darkness. Their story began with founder Fernand Petzl’s passion for caving, back in the mid-1930s. Out of that passion, Petzl started to design innovative solutions for ascending, descending, belaying and moving about underground. This included pioneering headlamps and rope safety equipment. But alpinists soon discovered that what worked below the earth also worked above it, and Petzl kit was quickly co-opted by climbers, mountaineers and skiers.
Today, Petzl remains one of the leading technical brands in all these fields, still devoted to one mission: to access the inaccessible. The product range is split into two core categories: lighting – which includes some of the world’s most advanced head torches; and verticality – highly technical equipment designed for those venturing into the world’s loftiest mountain ranges as well as the globe’s deepest, darkest places.
