I was wondering if they would update it with modern features and I'm so glad they did. This is the best headlamp for travel as it takes up far less space in your bag or pocket than a traditional design. I find it comfortable and it has great performance to boot.The "string" that you use to wear the headlamp is comfortable and secure, but it can leave a crease on your forehead after you use it. This solution is so much more space efficient than the large tangle of nylon most headlamps use. The light itself is a full quality Petzl. Bright enough that I usually use it in the dimmer mode. The batteries last so long it seems like magic. And all this in a water resistant design!This model is an improvement on the original. The battery compartment doesn't open up in your bag, and I appreciate the option to use a red light. The design is a bit handsomer as well, not that anyone will ever notice. They did reduce the brightness modes from three to two, but I prefer it as I only ever used the highest or dimmest modes. They added an extra strobe mode, so now there are two blinking modes instead of two, but I haven't had the chance to use it.For over a decade when people see how small and useful my Zipka is, they want one for themselves. I still can't believe it's not a more popular model. Just a super item all around. Buy it, use it, love it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Compact, bright, and extremely versatile. Perfect for deployments. *by S***. on Reviewed in the United States on May 31, 2013* Ordered this in preparation for my husband's deployment. We already own several other headlamps, but I wanted to equip him with something better. I shopped around and researched headlamps with the one requirement the headlamp must have red LED/night-vision capabilities. Ended up ordering this and the Petzl Tikka XP2 (traditional headband version).I'm super pleased with both purchases. It's not quite as bright at the XP2, but still provides plenty of bright light. This is very compact and light. The retractable strap is pretty comfortable. It's a little awkward around the head, but great around the wrist, and best of all: you can strap it to anything else: bag strap, pillar - it's the best feature.Another plus: comes with duracell batteries! Now that's quality.[Update July 2014]: we now recommend this headlamp to all of friends preparing for deployment. My husband loved how tiny, durable, and powerful this was; when you are already lugging around a ton of gear and have limited space, size and weight are a priority. The lack of the headband really cuts down on size and doesn't affect functionality (the retractable backing worked great) -- it was easy to carry around in his pocket.We still use this headlamp when we travel, go hiking, other outdoor activities, and I even use it at home when I need a flashlight!Spend the extra money, you won't be disappointed. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Awesome light *by S***M on Reviewed in the United States on September 7, 2013* This headlamp has it all; compact, bright, adjustable levels, and a red light. My last Zipka lasted 5 years and wish it had a lifetime warranty like Princeton Tec products. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/8680761-petzl-zipka-improved-lumen-output-plus-2-headlamp](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/8680761-petzl-zipka-improved-lumen-output-plus-2-headlamp) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-06-02*
