All rechargeable headlamps from 2015+ have this feature included as a new standard. When the battery reaches the last 10% of its total capacity, the Battery Reserve feature activates. This feature fades the light down to approximately 10-15% of the maximum lumens. This way you will get a visual notification, that the battery is low, and you will always know, when it is time to find a new battery or start heading home. With at least 40-80 lumens available in battery reserve for up to 30-60 minutes, depending on the rechargeable headlamp model.
