Description
Description
Runtime Extender for the NU43, NU45, NU53, HC60 UHE, HC65 UHE, HC70 UHE, HC75 UHE Headlamps
The Nitecore Carbon Battery 6K Kit can double or triple the runtime of Nitecore headlamps such as the NU40, NU43, NU45, NU50, NU53, HC60 UHE, HC65 UHE, HC70 UHE, and HC75 UHE. By connecting directly to the headlamp, the Carbon 6K Battery Kit activates the headlamps' Performance Mode, ensuring long-lasting illumination and stronger brightness. It first draws power from the battery kit, maximizing its runtime before utilizing the headlamp's internal battery.
Lightweight and Comfortable
Weighing just over three ounces, its well-balanced design offers optimal weight distribution between front and back for a comfortable and secure wearing experience.
Reliable Connection
The Carbon Battery 6K Kit features a USB-C port for easy connection and charging, along with a quick-release clip that ensures a secure connection between the charging port, headlamp, and battery, guaranteeing reliable charging. To check the remaining power, simply short-press the Power Button to illuminate the three red power indicators. Additionally, for added safety, the kit includes a rear red light that serves as a signal light at night.

Customers praised this extended runtime kit as "light" and "well made" with intuitive controls. It effectively extends headlamp battery life and doubles as a power bank. However, heavier headlamps may slip without a top strap, and the cable lacks an on/off switch, causing potential battery drain. Most found it a quality upgrade despite the higher price.
A little engineering and works perfect as a weapons power bank! Nitecore could open a whole new market for this at no expense.
The strap you need to use for this kit is incompatible with the top head strap which makes heavier headlamps like the Nitecore HC75 UHE more practical.
I have tried the Nitecore HC75 UHE on the 6K Extended Headlamp Runtime Kit's and it slips down my head and tugs on my hair because of the weight.
I recommend for heavier headlamps like the HC75 to just buy extra batteries and switch them instead
(unless you aren't able to and need constant light for the extended run time)
Great product light
Everything worked out of the box. Buttons are fairly intuitive. Have not used outside yet.
Looks great and works fine with my NU43. Haven’t had the chance to try battery life yet on it though.
Haven’t really put it to the test yet. Like the fact it integrates well with the headlight and serves multiple tasks.
This is a nice quality item and increased run time as advertised.
I really like the fact that I can extend my headlight time now❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I absolutely love this company and their products. I am in the trades industry and needed good quality long lasting flash lights, head lamps and power banks. The customer service and product quality is second to none. WARNING: your coworkers will try to steal your Nitecore products once they use them once! These products are not cheap Chinese crap (which I was first skeptical of)… these products are actually great quality, strong with cutting edge technology…… and no, I do not work for Nitecore
Great to have extra run time come from a light weight package. Adds a little extra weight to the headband but not enough to be cumbersome.
The Nitecore Carbon Battery 6K Extended Headlamp Runtime Kit gives my NU50 Headlamp an increased run time of 10,000mAh over the 7600mAh, when using the Nitecore Extension Battery Case, with the NL1836HP 3600mAh Battery. (1.3x or 32% increased run time) The 21700 Carbon Fiber 6K Powerbank is a great plus for spare back-up power or charging your phone. My only complaint is neither set-up has an on/off switch. You have to remove the USB-C cable from the Headlamp charging port to shut down the blue charging indicators, which will drain the extension battery, when not being used. This is not a deal breaker for me, but it should have been designed with an on/off switch. The price is a little high, but Nitecore is the best and you get what you pay for with them; High Quality! I still give it 5 stars.
Seems like a good product but can't give it 5 stars until we find out how it holds up. My concern is the cable that links the two items will not properly hold up. So far so good with 2wks everyday use.
