For extended low-light adventures, a decent head torch is a must. But many bulky and heavy headlamps get uncomfortable if you’re forced to wear them for hours on end. Petzl’s Iko is different. It has been ergonomically designed for supreme comfort, while combining multiple technologies to offer a bright, 500-lumen output with a weight penalty of just 90g. Key to the design is Petzl’s Airfit headband, which fuses an ultra-thin lamp body with a battery unit worn at the back of the head. This balanced construction ensures enhanced long-term wearing comfort. The multiple LEDs are easy on the eyes too, being ideally distributed for optimal uniform lighting, with no retina-burning hotspots. The Iko comes Petzl’s Core rechargeable battery for maximum performance, rated at 500 lumens. But it can also be used with 3 standard AAA batteries, making it a versatile adventure companion. The low-bulk design packs away easily, while it can also be worn around the neck or even transformed into a lantern, using the supplied storage pouch.

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.
