You can read the full review in english or german, like all my reviews, on my website dahamstah.de.
You can also find it on BLF and german TLF.
You can buy the light directly from Wurkkos or at Amazon with code ND9QEQLO.
Summary
Drawing a conclusion on this light isn’t easy. The build quality is good and the dual-switch concept is interesting. The light wears comfortably on the head, and the beam profile works well both indoors and out.
The UI unfortunately lacks any shortcuts—if you can live with that, it works perfectly and offers diverse adjustment options. In exchange, the performance is solid, and the included accessories are useful and varied.
The SST-40 wouldn’t have been my first choice, and I would have preferred High CRI in the flood channel, but the setup works surprisingly well.
My conclusion is likely already apparent: I like the light better than I expected before the review. Wurkkos got a lot of things right and designed a versatile headlamp—a V2 with a revised UI and High CRI flood would be a definite “buy” for me again!
