Overview

Not a single-beam lamp, the Fenix HM55R packs three light sources into a compact head-mounted body: a spotlight, a floodlight and a red light. Adjustable focus and multiple beam patterns cover close work and distance.

Adjustable focus, three light sources and a long quoted runtime are the reasons to consider it for camping, hiking and running. The limitation is that the listing does not break runtime down by mode, so the top output and the long runtime figure cannot be paired.

Who it's for

Outdoor users who want a lightweight, rechargeable headlamp that handles both close work and distance. People who need a mode-by-mode output chart should look for one before buying.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Spotlight and floodlight
  • Red light mode
  • Anodized aluminum build
  • Long manufacturer warranty
Cons
  • Mode-by-mode output not broken down
  • Runtime conditions not specified
  • Battery capacity not given

Performance notes

Three light sources feed multiple beam patterns, and adjustable focus shifts between a tight spot for distance and a wide flood for close work. Runtime and brightness trade against each other on a lithium polymer battery, though the listing does not say how. The ANSI FL1 standard sets how the figures were measured.
