- Transcend 1500 Rechargeable Headlamp | 1,500 Lumens, 5 Light Modes, Detachable Magnetic Work Lamp, Waterproof, Bright LED Head Light for Hiking & Camping, Includes USB Charging Cable

impressive for the size, and it puts out more light than I expected. The build quality feels good too—durable and not cheap or flimsy. The magnetic base is a great feature and actually holds well, which makes it super handy when you’re working and need both hands free. Fit is comfortable and easy to use, and the material feels like it’ll hold up over time. Overall, great value for the money. Reliable, bright, and just works the way it should.

It was shipped fast and delivered with no problems. I've had a lot of different brands of headlamps, but most of them were less than great. The Nebo Transcend 1500 is exceptional. The build quality and design are better than expected, and far better than any other headlamp I've ever used. The controls and functions are simple and intuitive, and easy to memorize. Some people don't like headgear that don't have a top strap, but it's not a problem with this headlamp. It's easily adjustable and comfortable, and it stays put pretty well. As for the brightness, it is completely sufficient on the medium setting for normal everyday things, and the High setting is WAY bright. I have a bicycle light that uses a 4-cell battery pack and is ridiculously bright, and this nearly matches it with only one cell. The Turbo level is even brighter, but hardly seems necessary. I can't really imagine a scenario where this headlamp isn't more than enough to do the job very well. It comes with a rechargeable 18650 cell that is slightly longer than a standard button-top (due to the Type-C charging port), but my 18650 cells that I use in other devices fit easily and work well in this headlamp. I haven't used it for extended periods yet, so I don't know how long the battery lasts. It's not super important, though, considering the fact that standard 18650 cells will fit, and it's easy enough to swap one out if necessary. I can't think of a single thing about it to criticize, and for this very low cost, it's an unmatched value. I will probably buy one or two more. It’s pretty great to find something so excellent for such a good price.

This is an ideal headlamp, with rechargeable battery, and super bright light. It doesn’t have a red light function, and its sturdy metal construction may limit its use for super light trips like backpacking, where weight is of utmost importance.

best headlamp we have ever purchased, this is our second one! Has the different settings so you have have the light as bright (or not) as you want/need, you can adjust it to direct the light up, down, straight ahead. Absolutely LOVE that it is rechargeable. I find that the charge lasts a while as well, depending on how long you are using it at one time. Also love that it is adjustable so you can tighten or losen it to fit as needed. I do not find that it gets hot but have not used it for super long periods of time, easy to turn on & adjust the light modes, etc. You will not regret buying this!

Normally I buy $10 or less lights, but this time I decided to splurge and get a really nice one. When it arrived I changed it for 5 hours, then overnight before the led turned green...the headlamp still would not turn on. Tested the battery with an electrical multi-meter, and fully charged it read 0.26 volts. It is a 3.7 volt battery, fully charged it should read around 4.2 volts, so, completely dead (unusable) battery. I was SO disappointed, because I finally bought a "nice" light, but It didn't even work right out of the box. Returned for a replacement. When the replacement arrived, I tested it (it worked), then changed it, and the light on the battery turned green in an hour. I love that this light is rechargeable, I hate having to buy and replace batteries. I bought this to use for my "food delivery" job when it is dark out. The light mode selection dial is what really sold me on this one, because it is really a pain to have to cycle through modes to get the right one when I only use the light for a maybe minute while dropping off at a house. When testing it, my kids accused this light of being "brighter than the sun". The low mode of 30 lumens doesn't sound like much, but is actually decent, enough light for most things indoors. The medium mode is bright enough for almost all outdoor uses and will be the mode I use the most. High mode is very bright and will light up my whole back yard. Turbo mode would be very useful if the bulb burned out on your lighthouse, or if you need to signal the international space station. I think strobe mode could give someone a seizure even if they don't have epilepsy. Did I mention this thing is BRIGHT? So far I love this light. It is just what I needed. It seems well made and durable and is very bright. Definitely a 5 star product. The reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is for the disappointment, hassle, and extra time waiting, of having to return the first one.

Bought this light for HVAC work and its been great. Ive dropped it from various heights and it wasn't phased at all. Can be dim enough to not blind your comrades under the house or in the attic when you're moving around but can be bright enough to light up the entire area when you start working. Battery life lasted me all day no problem even on high. The magnet came in clutch all the time.

Bright and the battery last a long time. Great product/price. Easy to recharge.

I have been using Nebo lights for many years, one of them is 10 years old, still works like the day I bought it. I've also been using headlights for years, but couldn't even begin to count how many I've gone through. Some failed the first time I used them. As I was lamenting the short life of my last one, and reflecting on the annoyance of dysfunction leading to failure (how long I put up with crap before writing it off) the thought occurred to me: wouldn't it be cool if Nebo made one? A quick google search, shezam, my wish come true. Amazon put one in my hands the next day! The Nebo Transcend is everything I expected it to be, it is truly excellent! The usual Nebo quality is evident, it is elegant and precise. On its "high" setting it absolutely bathes everything within several steps with white light. For things within arm's reach (my primary use case) high is overkill, "low" is more than enough -- and it lasts for 28 hours on that setting! I haven't owned it long enough to speak to it's durability, but I have no doubt it will perform like a Nebo always does. The elastic band might've been a concern, elastic only lasts so long, but I see the rest of the industry wasted no time aping Transcend's form factor and tilt mechanism, there are 3rd party replacement bands to be had for $3, so this isn't a concern. The only other thing I wanted to say is about another reviewer crying about charging port lifetime. He clearly is not well informed about current battery standards. This light uses a standard rechargeable battery known as the 18650, made by literally hundreds of makers. The charging port, built into the battery, is an extension of that spec. New ones are out there for less than $10 (be sure the milliamp hours match or exceed the original.) If the charging port fails you have a couple of options: you could replace the battery with one just like it, or you could buy a cheap 18650 charger and charge it out of the light -- no big deal, you have to remove the battery to expose its charging port anyway. A stand-alone charger would likely maintain the battery better, charging circuitry on the battery is limited by space. Decent chargers do extensive charge-state analysis and tailor the charge operation accordingly. It would also set you up to carry replacement batteries that lack the charging port (cheaper, more plentiful, bigger ma/h capacity -- I have some with 9800 ma/h capacity.) And you may even find you already own other devices with the same battery type, this gives you a solution to charging problems on any of them! Nebo even offers replacement batteries with their brand on them. Discarding this fine light for charging issues is highly wasteful and (as opposed to this headlight) not very bright. Addendum: I've now owned this light for more than a year, I still love the light. The headband, otoh, just sucks! It's now stretched out almost long enough to go around my waist and its adjustment will not hold. Moments aga I wrapped a piece of duct tape around the bands to keep it in place, and I ordered a compatible one from another maker. For a maker of such fine products to provide this abomination of a band, it's difficult to fathom.

I decided to purchase the Trancend 1500 as an upgrade from my 1000. Overall the 1500 works just as well but you have to fully remove the battery from the headlamp to recharge. That means you have the 1500 broken down into 3 SEPARATE PARTS to recharge. It may not seem like much but, when outdoors, better to keep your equipment in one piece. The 1000 only requires you to loosen the knob to provide access to charging port (keeping the headlamp in one piece).

Awesome head lights.
