From Campmor:
"The ultra-compact ZIPKA 2 headlamp is equipped with the ZIP retractable cord system. This feature allows the headlamp to be worn on the head or wrist, or attached to any other support, like a tent pole, etc. This headlamp is extremely versatile, thanks to its three lighting levels (maximum, economic and flashing), which are accessed with a simple electronic pushbutton switch. In maximum mode, the four LEDs deliver 40 lumens of light and provide enough light to see over a distance of 29 meters. In economic mode, the lifetime of the batteries can be extended to up to 120 hours for a long burn-time. The battery compartment is now hinged for easier access along with an easier to use closure system. Compact, light and comfortable: 25% more compact than the TIKKA 2 headlamp. Single compartment contains LEDs and batteries. ZIP retractable cord is adjustable. Versatile and energy efficient: Three lighting modes (maximum, economic and flashing mode). 120 h light duration at economic level/ 90 h at maximum level/ 300 h flashing. Easy to use: Electronic push button switch. Battery pack is easy to open. ADAPT system easy to mount. Four high-output LEDs. 40 lumens at maximum level. Shines up to 29 meters maximum level/ 13 m economic level/ 5000 m flashing. Reliable: Push-button switch limits inadvertently turning on the lamp during storage. ZIP retractable cord is adjustable.

From Backcountry.com:
"Stash the Petzl Zipka 2 Headlamp in your jacket pocket, backpack, or anywhere else you can fit a pack of gum, and bust it out when you're in dire need of compact, superbright illumination. Four LED bulbs with three different brightness settings give you the perfect amount of light for any situation, and the retractable dyneema headband lowers bulk while still providing a secure fit. The Zipka is also compatible with Petzl's ADAPT system (sold separately), which allows you to detach the casing and attach it to a helmet, pack, jacket, or any other gear."
