The Exposure HTGO head torch is a top choice for hiking and camping. Weighing just 74 g (around 104 g with the headband) and featuring compact dimensions — 49 mm wide with a 20 mm head — it offers excellent wearing comfort and quickly disappears on night outings.
The HTGO head torch features a two-colour charge indicator built into the lens. This visual cue helps you manage available power and plan recharging to maintain a consistent beam. For five seconds after switching off, the indicator shows the remaining battery level:
The HTGO uses a single button to access all lighting modes with ease. It also features a USB-C charging port (USB 2.0) for quick, convenient recharging.
The OMS (Optimised Mode Selector) lets you tailor the balance between light output and runtime to your activity. The higher the output, the shorter the runtime — choose the right mode for your terrain and trip duration.
On a way-marked trail, choose Prog. 2 for extended runtime. In rough or unlit terrain, select Prog. 1 to benefit from a maximum of 400 lumens. OMS ensures lighting adapted to every situation.

| Modes | Output | Runtime | |

In an emergency: the HTGO provides up to 30 hours in strobe mode and 5 hours in SOS mode, ensuring your safety and visibility even in demanding conditions.
Fast USB-C charging: the battery fully recharges in 2 hours, so you can quickly restore full light output on your HTGO.
The integrated indicator blinks green while charging, then stays solid when the battery is full.
