ARIA 2 RGB PETZL front lamp

• Specificities of the Aria 2 lamp:

-Large and mixed bundle (wide and focused) to see from near and far
- Color lighting to adapt to different situations: red to preserve night vision and ensure discretion, green to facilitate card reading and strengthen contrasts and blue to identify traces of blood and improve visibility in water, without scaring fish
-fixed or flashing colored lighting as required
-Waterproof of dust and water (-1 meter for 30 minutes)
-Unique button to easily and quickly select the level or lighting color
-Three levels of white lighting: max burn time (maximum autonomy), standard (best power/autonomy balance) and max power (maximum power)
-Light witness to the ignition and extinction of the lamp allowing to consult the battery level
-Platinum allowing to orient the lamp very easily in the desired direction
-Removable and washable headband
-Lock function to avoid untimely ignitions during transport/storage

Construction Hybrid Concept:

The lamp has a dual power system, it can be powered with three AAA/LR03 batteries or with the core rechargeable battery. 

The lamp detects the energy source and optimizes lighting performance: with a core rechargeable battery the lamp provides more power to ignition (600 lumens in max power mode) and throughout the duration of use.


• Security and accessories:

- versatility in the choice of power supply, battery or batteries
- additional Core battery available as an option to increase autonomy: click here
- optional Noctilight case to turn the headlamp into a lantern and diffuse the light

• Lighting:

- for a short activity, favor the Max Power level to maximize the lighting power
- for an enduring or long activity, which requires good battery management, choose the Standard level which offers the best compromise between lighting power and battery life
- for an activity requiring little movement (bivouac, camping, reading), the Max Burn Time level with moderate lighting preserves the batteries or the battery

Mixed beam (wide and focused) for movement and distant vision

The mixed beam allows you to see near and far to be able to move around (wide to see at your feet and focused to see at a few meters and anticipate the relief).



• Lighting performance according to ANSI protocol (American National Standard Institute):



Petzl follows the ANSI/PLATO FL 1 protocol to measure and communicate on the lighting power and the autonomy of its headlamps. This approach allows you to easily compare the performance of different models of headlamps from Petzl and other manufacturers who adopt this protocol, using the same benchmark.

• Lighting power (in lumens)

This measurement is carried out between 30 seconds and 2 minutes after lighting the lamp. It indicates the maximum power emitted, with new cells or batteries, when the lamp is started.

• Lighting distance (in meters)

This is the maximum distance between the lamp and the place where only 0.25 lux of illumination remains. The measurement is carried out on ignition with new cells or batteries. The lighting distance depends directly on the lighting power, but above all on the shape of the beam.

• Autonomy (in hours)

It corresponds to the duration during which the lighting is optimal, from the ignition of the lamp until reaching 10% of the maximum power. Below this power, we switch to the "lighting reserve" phase.

• The lighting reserve (in hours)

The lighting reserve guarantees minimum operating or safety lighting.
