Headlamps: Batteries or Rechargeable Batteries, How to Choose?

Headlamps have become an indispensable tool for many activities, whether camping, hiking, working or even spying. At Dealeez, we understand the importance of choosing the right power source for your headlamp. In this article, we’ll explore the pros and cons of battery-powered versus rechargeable headlamps.

Understanding the basics: batteries vs rechargeable batteries

Batteries: They provide a STANDARD LIGHTING energy source that diminishes with use. They are readily available on the market and do not require recharging.

Rechargeable batteries: They provide CONSTANT LIGHTING energy that lasts longer thanks to additional accessories. They require a power source to recharge.

Strengths and weaknesses

Autonomy & lighting power: The lighting power of rechargeable batteries is generally greater than that of batteries. However, in terms of autonomy, batteries, thanks to their chemical composition, can last longer than rechargeable batteries.

Availability & ease of use: Batteries are readily available on the market, whereas rechargeable batteries may require a visit to the manufacturer. What’s more, using a battery is simple: just pop it in and you’re ready to go. Batteries, on the other hand, require regular recharging.

Environmental impact: Rechargeable batteries have a lower environmental impact because they can be recharged and reused. Batteries, although efficient, can take over 50 years to degrade and cannot be recycled.

Self-discharge: Rechargeable batteries can run down quickly, even when not in use. Batteries, on the other hand, last longer and are more reliable in this respect.
