PETZLNOCTILIGHT Lantern Case, Transform Your Headlamp for Camping & Hiking

Muy buena. Se adapta perfectamente a la linterna

Protects my generic headlamp, can stand and can hang. Does a good job of diffusing light. Just make sure that the settings is not too bright on the light level or it may burn through after a while.

I always buy the retractable Petzl light, so I’ve usually just put it around a translucent water bottle with the light facing into the bottle to diffuse the light. But I wasn’t bringing a translucent bottle on my river trip so I got this instead. Works well to diffuse the light without dampening the brightness and the hanging strap/hook allowed me to hang it up instead of being at ground level when it’s on a bottle. Definitely worth it once you’re in the tent and don’t want to blind your tent mate by keeping your headlamp on. My retractable light is loose inside, but that’s because this is made to have enough room for a regular strap headlamp. The on/off button on this didn’t line up for my lamp, but probably does for headlamps with a bigger strap.

When I saw this product I fell in love with the idea of it and had it on my wish list for some time. A few few weeks ago I was in a position to purchase it and can now say that I love it for what it is. I have a light duty bodied petzl which cuts down on weight, however felt that there would not be proper protection for it as it rattled around with my other small gear. Furthermore I wanted to have diffused light for my kit without needing to go out and get another light which would mean more weight, cost, and room. Also,I like good, long lasting gear and will pay for it if I have to. Enter the NOCTILIGHT. Added weight, cost, and room is unavoidable when looking to add to capability to a system compromise must be made. That said, the NOCTILIGHT didn't add much weight, gives a comfortable level of protected to my headlamp, defuses light effectively, didn't add much weight, took up little extra room, and is good gear that does not break the bank. Other things to note, the zipper is heavy duty, and the cord attached to hook has a strong return for its tasking, which in my experience means the elasticity of the cord will remain good over long use.

When is saw this I had to have it but after using it I realized that since it is not water proof there is really not much point. The diffusing of the headlamp light is ok but really not necessary. A simple hook on your headlamp or just hanging it on a branch accomplishes the same thing and with a water proof headlamp you are good to go in the rain anyway.

Great little device and perfect for lighting up a small area. We have all been there and just hung our headlamp from a hook to act as a makeshift lantern, and I will continue to do so if I have to put it back on right away. But with this, if I just need to use it as a lantern, it works great. The lens is frosted, sending light in a broader range vs. being direct from the headlamp. It's easy to store the headlamp in, and I was skeptical about the button to turn it on, but it worked great. It's also a great way to store your headlamp when packing it away or in your gear. It also works with some off-brand headlamps.

I was surprised by how great this case is designed. Not only does it fit my headlamp, but I can even turn it on while it's still in the case. The case turns into a light diffusing "lantern"! Also, there's a built-in cord that you can use to hang it up as lantern in your tent. The only downside is I don't think it's a waterproof case.

Hiking the Pacific Crest Trail to The John Muir Trail this ingenious case turns into a overhead tent reading light..Don't leave home without it!
