The opinion of Aventure Nordique
The Kiska 3 from French brand Stoots is dedicated to trail running. This versatile model has unique lighting, with 3 beam widths to maximise the range of light. It has the best weight - power - range ratio, making it the perfect light for ultra trail running!
It has a maximum output of 1200 lumens and a 2-hour runtime. A total of 5 levels are available: 100 lm (30 h), 200 lm (12h), 400 lm (7h), 700 ml (4h) and 1200 lm (2h).
The Kiska is powered by a removable, cylindrical Easylock 18 12 Wh battery with a capacity of 3500 mAh. The lithium ion battery is recharged via the waterproof USB-C port.
The light pack features :
- 6 white LEDs that allow you to mix 3 beam widths (wide, medium and narrow), for a lighting range of up to 120 metres.
- 1 red LED to indicate battery charge level. It is also used to illuminate in fixed mode at low power and in flashing mode. This mode is ideal for map reading, to avoid disturbing neighbours and wildlife. The flashing mode lets you be visible in any situation.
The Easylock concept adds versatility to this lighting system: the lamp is independent of the battery, holder and strap. The light can be easily attached to a variety of accessories: straps, helmets, bike handlebars, etc.
3 lighting technologies:
- Fixing Focus adjusts the width of the beam according to the lighting mode. This technology makes vision more comfortable and increases the range of the beam without loss of diffusion.
- An all-encompassing, homogenous lighting environment that reduces visual fatigue.
- The electronic control system maintains constant power, so there's no drop in brightness depending on the battery level.
The Kiska 3 has an electronic lock to prevent it from switching on accidentally when being transported. The design is robust, thanks to the aluminium chassis.
Choice of color :
This Stoots headlamp comes in black. You can customize it by choosing an additional color palette. This option is sold separately.
