Its candle power is ideal for running on wide trails or fire roads, but somewhat lacking for navigating extremely technical trails in the dark. The ratcheted tilt mechanism targets the light exactly where you need it, and holds the angle firmly in place even with heavy activity.

This lamp is also compatible with Petzl’s Adapt2 system (not included), which allows you to attach the light elsewhere when it’s not strapped around your head. Water resistance is rated IPX4, so the lamp shines normally even in a driving rainstorm. Toggling between brightness modes (high-low-flashing-off) or changing from red to white light mode is easily done via the single top button.
Switching from spot mode to flood mode is as easy as flipping the diffuser up or down.

Petzl improved the ergonomics with a single multi-function button on the top casing, and a hinged battery compartment that’s much easier to open and close than the previous model. Compared to its predecessor, the XP2 is brighter (60 lumens vs 40) and shines farther (60m vs 35), in a package that is 7g lighter – so the performance upgrades are apparent right off the bat.
