Overview

Fenix builds the HM50R V2.0 as an ultra compact headlamp with a head mount, an aluminum body and two light sources, white and red. It charges over USB-C, and an organizer and charging cable come in the box.

Choose it for jogging, hiking, camping or running where a small, light lamp with a red night mode is useful. The runtime figure comes without a mode, and the battery is built in and non-standard, so a spare cannot be swapped in on the trail.

Who it's for

A night runner, hiker or camper who counts weight gets a compact lamp with white and red light and a battery gauge. Anyone who wants to carry spare batteries should look at a lamp that takes standard cells.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Compact, light aluminum body
  • White and red light sources
  • Red flash signaling mode
  • Battery level indicator
Cons
  • Built-in battery cannot be swapped
  • Runtime mode not specified
  • Only one beam angle is listed

Performance notes

An LED source drives the white beam, and the listed maximum output sets how bright the lamp gets at its strongest. Runtime depends on which mode is used, and the listing gives one figure without naming it. The red light and flash mode are for low-glare use and signaling.
