- Is the Fenix HL16 bright enough for trail running?
- For easy paths and walking, yes. At 150 lumens on high with a 104-meter beam it lights the ground ahead, but runners on technical trails usually want a brighter, wider beam.
- What batteries does it take?
- Three AAA batteries. Alkaline works, and Ni-MH rechargeables are supported, but there is no built-in charging, so you need a separate charger.
- Is it waterproof?
- It carries an IP66 rating, so it resists dust and heavy rain. It is not rated for submersion.
- How long does the battery last?
- Fenix rates up to 100 hours on the low modes and about 8 hours on high at 150 lumens. Real runtime depends on the cells and the mode you use.
- Can I use it with gloves on?
- Yes. The dual switch is separate from the lamp head and the 60-degree tilt bracket moves without tools, so it is manageable with gloves.
- Does it come with a headband?
- Yes, the headband is included, and the quoted weight of about 97 g includes it and the batteries.
