Comparison: Petzl TIKKA vs. Petzl ACTIK CORE Headlamp
Petzl’s TIKKA headlamp is a step down from the ACTIK, and the ACTIK is a step-down from the ACTIK CORE.
The TIKKA headlamp has 300 lumens and only comes with AAA batteries. You can buy the CORE lithium-ion rechargeable battery as an accessory – this is the same for the ACTIK headlamp. The ACTIK CORE has the lithium-ion battery included with the kit.
The Petzl ACTIK and TIKKA are ideal for kids and for light use around the house, camping, running, fishing, or working on the car. Both headlamps come with a red light function and a red strobe for emergencies.
We highly recommend the ACTIK, and if you want to get the latest model, the ACTIK CORE 450 lumens headlamp is your best choice.
