S4E98 Felix 65R-T V2.0 Rechargeable Headlamp Product Review

Glad I found this Headlamp. Its super bright. Also lightweight. It fits real nice around your head you dont really notice your wearing it. The boa system is awesome, it allows you to tighten it or loosen the strap with one hand, so it can be adjusted as you run of do work amd still have a handfree, which means you dont need to stop or play with the strap with both hands. Its super convenient. The battery lasts longer then most on the market. The brightness is also adjustable and has two kinds of light. That way you can choose what works best for the conditions your in.

Episode Transcript

(00:09):
All right, this is the Phoenix HM 65 RT version 2 point O Max
600 lumens. We're just going to run down
some specs real quick for this product review. 1600 lumens at 3
hours, 400 on, 12130 on, 24 for the white light.

(00:30):
The warm white light, 800 on high for six hours, mediums 4
for 12, lows 130 for 24, and you're calling me 5 for 300.
If you're going to get on the highest setting, 100 and 1600,
you get about 170 meters of visibility.

(00:54):
Again, that's always dependent on so many different factors, so
I don't even like to go into that too much.
This I will say is my new go to headlamp for the time being.
The band itself, Let me see if Ican get a good view.

(01:15):
It's very breathable as you can see the holes in it.
It's going to keep, you know, your head a little bit cooler.
It's going to pull the sweat away a little bit more.
Got the cool boa in the back here.
You don't know what a boa systemis.
It allows you to tighten or loosen the strap you see there.

(01:36):
It's pulling this a little bit tension on that.
So we'll just put it on my head real quick.
So what's really cool about the BOA?
So if you're running a night race or doing any outdoor
activity where you need a light,maybe you're maybe this is your

(01:57):
work headlamp. Maybe you know you work in night
conditions at your job. You can change the tightness
with one hand while having one hand free, which is really cool
if you're trail running. So maybe you have your poles in
your hand, you don't want to setthem down.

(02:18):
Or if you just want your one hand free, you can do it pretty
quickly without having to worry about pissing around with a
strap. So many other headlamps make you
do so if you know if you ever had a headlight before, we have
to play with the strap. It's basically a two hand
operation. Tighten and loosen the strap.

(02:42):
So there's a really big pain in the butts with this boa system.
It allows you to keep one hand free on the go.
So let's just say you're runningdown downhill when you want it a
little bit tighter just in case you wear it loose and you know,
just from a bouncing and just orwhatever, whatever the case may
be, Maybe you're working and you're looking down a lot.

(03:05):
So you want to keep it a little bit tighter so it doesn't fall
off. It really shouldn't know because
the way this material is, it's going to stick to your head a
little bit. I'll show you right now.
So this is it's on my head like this.
Do a little, do a little head banger action, you know, getting

(03:26):
a mosh pitch. It stayed on my head.
It didn't bounce at all. Obviously the movement, it's
going to move the light up and down, but whatever.
It's also nice is it's rotatable.
So whatever angle you want the light to shine, you can adjust

(03:51):
that very easily whether you're using the sides.
You know all you have to use theone side because the other
side's for the battery, but I just end up grabbing it and
doing it myself. Got that charging port on the
back here. It's got a nice cover on it so

(04:13):
you don't have to worry about getting all kinds of grime and
dirt and it because it gets tucked away behind the like the
plastic that it encases it and then the waistband behind that
and also this waistband keeps plastic from digging into your
head, which is really cool. Don't want that trying to think

(04:35):
what else here see which side ofthe battery is so to open for
the battery. It's got what is it a 3400?
Yeah, it's a 3.6 Volt, 18, 1653.634 hundred MAHI.

(05:05):
Don't know what that stuff stands for, I just know it's a
lot. Then you got both sides here.
One's the warm light, one's the bright light.
Just do this real quick. Turn that off.

(05:29):
So as you see, I adjusted it with a couple of clicks there.
Gives you the different settings.
I know that doesn't really show you how much or how bright it is
compared to being outside in thedark, but I'm not going to go
out there and do that right now.But I will say this.
I wore this during a trail race a couple months ago.

(05:51):
I've had this since. I've had this for about 3 months
now and I worked for the first time during a trail race pacing
one of my friends and light it emitted was amazing.
Blew my old other brand headlamps away.
I think I had, you know, using black diamonds before and

(06:12):
they're the best black diamond compared to this thing is
ridiculous. The difference this specific
headlamp makes. I think it's like 3 times as
bright as my best Black Diamond headlamp that I've had before.

(06:36):
So it really shine a bright light, allow me to see where I
needed to go on technical terrain.
So if you know the Lower Highlands hiking trail, we went
from like 271 to the end the last 13 miles.
And then there's technical sections, especially the
downhill coming in the last three miles.
I had no trouble seeing with this headlamp.

(06:57):
It didn't cast any shadows or anything like that.
They gave a wide view so I was able to see it not trip and hurt
myself. So it's a very useful headlamp.
I really do like the Boa. This is the first headlamp that
I've had with a Boa. Definitely going to stick to

(07:18):
that from the now on. Again, it's rechargeable whether
you're just, you know, putting abattery pack into the side or if
you're replacing the batteries. So if you're doing like a long
race, obviously you're going to want more batteries depending on
your usage, how much you're going to need, but it's very

(07:42):
quickly changeable. So if you have what 3 batteries
or something like that, even on the highest setting, yes, if you
have the white light, 1600 lubessays it lasts three hours.
So if you had three batteries, that's nine hours and darkness.

(08:05):
But typically I'd probably stickwith the warm light, which is
800 rooms for six hours. So if you had, I'd still
probably take three batteries just in case because you never
know it's going to last you all through the night.
So if you're doing like 100 milerace, like a 2436 hour cut offs,

(08:26):
take this with two batteries, it's going to be all you need.
Well, it's also impact resistance at 2 meters.
And another reason why I got this, I forgot to mention it's
submersible. It's IP68.
Let me see if it says what IP68 means on this.

(08:46):
I always forget offhand. So basically, if it's pouring
down rain, it's not going to affect this light.
It's not going to ruin it. You can even put this in a
swimming pool and probably do a couple laps for about an hour.
Unless you're diving in like 10 to 15 feet, this won't get
ruined. I know somebody's gonna probably

(09:08):
say that's wrong, but this is basically a waterproof light as
well with a big IP68. So again, if you get caught out
in the wilderness, it's pouring down rain, you don't have to
worry about having a backup because this will withstand
those temperatures or wetness and temperatures as well.

(09:32):
Not sure how it doesn't like below, you know, sub zero
temperatures, but 8085° temperatures.
And I was using this at night. I had no issues.
So works pretty well. And as I said, I tested this
myself. I really like this over my other
headlamps that I've had. I've had probably about a dozen

(09:54):
so far. And this is my new go to and
it's definitely my favorite and the best one that I've had
because I'd like what I look forto headlamp is weight,
durability, brightness and comfortability.
And this meets all of them. I'm not a big fan of the ones
with the big battery packs in the back because it seems like

(10:17):
they dig into your head and thismeets all my check marks.
Plus it lasts a long time. So yes.
If you're looking for a good hand lamp, check out the Phoenix
HM 65 RT version 2 point OI forget what the price point is,

(10:37):
but it's definitely well worth it.
If you're a trail runner or Roadrunner and you're going to
be out there for long hours doing some training or need
something for work, this is definitely going to be one of
your favorite pieces of equipment that you're ever going
to use.
