Zebralight H600 Mark II coming August 2013!!!

Shorter model (3.82 inches compared to 3.9 inches) and hopefully the new 502/SC52 UI and lower modes of these lights. These lights can't come soon enough!!!!

This is the second 18650 light I mentioned in the 602 thread. Hopefully what I was told about the 602 coming out around the same time as the MkII 600 is true. I'm done waiting!

I may have to pick up a H602 along with a H600 MKII when they arrive at Zebralight.

I don't feel a need to update my H600w, but I probably will! I'm definitely waiting before I sell the H600w to make sure I don't get stuck with another green tint. Lots of exciting ZL stuff going on!

What is supposed to be the difference between the two? Are they really going to have two different 18650 headlamps?

Basically two 18650 headlamps just like you have the two AA lamps (H51 and H502).

The H602 will be an all-flood (like the H502 but larger running on 18650 Li_ion)

The H600 MKII will just have some updates on the old H600

I can't take it! please put this on the market already! lol..
looking forward to anything from ZL but the 602 &H600 MKII Are top of the list!

double post

has anyone noticed the MkII is listed as ~950 lumens?

And that it has 384 discrete levels? Hmm? What could that possibly mean?

Possibly an ingenious way to modulate heat and output. Perhaps no silly thermal/time drop of 300 lumens like everyone else does? Perhaps a nearly imperceivable drop in output to keep it from overheating, allowing maximum output at all times?

Some more information I copied from my post in the H602 thread:



Also is listed as having 384 discrete level PID thermal regulation.

In a nutshell the light will maintain highest output possible based on thermal temperatures using 384 levels and a PID controller. The PID not only regulates the output based on the temperature it is reading, but it also monitors present/recent conditions to regulate the output. If the light is outside in the breeze in a cool environment it will not need to cut back on the output as much as if it is sitting on a table with no breeze in a 75 degree house. It monitors how much it needs to cut back and self adjusts to keep from overshooting optimal output.

Use of the PID cuts the output as little and as slow as possible and for the most part is not perceived by the user.

Cool, huh?


Important note: When they listed the 950 lumens the used a tilde( ~) which means approximate. So we will still need to wait to know actual out the front lumens.

Whoa, I just saw the new H600 MkII on their comparison sheet. 1020 lumens.....nice. That's like having a 100 wat bulb on your head.....very nice. The H600 has been my all-around favorite headlight since it came out almost 2 years ago, and I can't wait for the upgrade. Looking forward to the increase in output and improved UI.....still looking forward to the H52 for my AA hiking set up as well.

New model upcoming ?
On the site Zebralight yesterday there have been changes..

Guess so. After the clearance sale, new model is surely coming.

I just hope the new model will be less picky when it comes to battery length (despite being even shorter).
Otherwise I am very happy with my H600FW as it is, but improvements are always welcome of course.

That would be nice. My EagleTac 3400's are pretty short for a protected battery, but it's a tight fit and they look like crap now from the spring digging into the negative end.

New Zebra H600 arrived!

Light Output (runtimes)

• High: H1 1020 Lm (PID, approx 2 hr) or H2 620 Lm (PID, approx 2.5 hrs) / 330 Lm (3.9 hrs)
• Medium: M1 65 Lm (30 hrs) or M2 30Lm (66 hrs) / 11 Lm (172 hrs)
• Low: L1 3.5 Lm (16 days) or L2 0.4 Lm (2.5 months) / 0.06 Lm (4.6 months) / 0.01 Lm (5.5 months)
• Beacon Strobe Mode: 0.2Hz Beacon at Low / 0.2Hz Beacon at H1 / 4Hz Strobe at H1 / 19Hz Strobe at H1

The news is interesting, but I am perplexed the gap between 65 and 330 lumens, with the old model could be programmed 170 lumens for 7 hours.
In addition, the output values ​​are identical to H600 and H602, this seems a bit strange.
Perhaps there is an error on the website?

Wow finally released, I did a double take when I saw the updated website.
I agree the jump from 65 to 330 lumens is a strange choice.
Now we just need to wait for the availability to change from 'not for sale'.......

It would be nice to have a H4 with a lower value like 170 lumens.
I wrote to Zebra asking this, maybe in a future version could introduce this change.
I have a Zebra H600 H2 and I planned to 170 lumens, it is very convenient because there is a good light and many hours of battery life.
These are the old values​​, progress is remarkable!
More light and more time

This is the new H600 model, although 2 mm shorter.
