The opinion of Aventure Nordique
The Duo RL from Petzl is an ultra-powerful headlamp. It features the brand's Reactive Lighting technology. A sensor evaluates the ambient light and automatically adapts the light output to the user's needs, thus saving battery power. In Reactive Lighting mode, it delivers up to 2800 lumens for at least 1.5 hours, with a range of 255 metres. In medium power at 550 lumens, it has a minimum runtime of 6 hours. It also has a Standard Lighting mode (fixed power, without using the sensor). Each mode has 5 levels of lighting intensity that can be programmed manually (even with gloves on) using a small dial on the side of the lamp.
The wearer is balanced thanks to the remote battery at the back of the head and the presence of a top headband.
