The Nitecore UT6 is a rechargeable running headlamp with up to 1600 lumens and a 195 m beam. Eight dual-core MCT UHE LEDs offer warm 3000K light with CRI 98, neutral 4500K with CRI 85 and cool 6500K with CRI 73. TrueVision+ optics spread illumination across the trail, while dedicated colour-temperature buttons keep selection straightforward.

A physical slider selects High-Performance, Long-Runtime or Lockout. Long-Runtime mode provides up to 31 hours at 150 lumens. The included 4000 mAh NL1840R battery is removable and charges through its own USB-C port in approximately three hours with a 5V/1.5A supply. Compatible button-top 18650 cells must support discharge current over 8A; flat-top 18650, CR123 and 16340 cells are incompatible.

The 130 g running-ready build combines magnesium alloy and PC with a Rapid Reel headband and detachable tilting bracket. IP68 protection, a 2 m impact rating and a supplied diffusing stuff sack support trail and camp use. Output changes with heat and use; follow the manual's battery and safety instructions.
