I really did not see a state of the market report so I thought I would ask here.  Looking for a decent headlamp that has a rechargeable battery pack or can use rechargeable batteries and recharge them using a USB-C cable.  Thank you!

Not to many UL headlamps with USB C. I would suggest Nitecore NU25 with USB C to micro adapter.

 

Fenix HM65R is great but not UL.

I use a Nitecore NU20, which uses a micro USB, but I have a small adaptor to convert charging cord to a USB-C for use with mobile. Works well for mix and match electronics.

More Nitecore NU20 (white only) or NU25 (white/red) love. Very hard to beat – Cheap, light, good light options (1 lumen Low setting is good for night tasks or walking on flat ground with a 100 hr rated burn time, or 70 lumen medium setting is enough to night hike with over uneven terrain with a 7.5hr rated burn time)

Thanks all but I am really only looking for USB-C native as I only want to carry one cord and all my other items are USB-C.  All I can really see is the Nitecore NU35 and some of the cheap WalMart ones.

Amazon sells 4 tiny mini-usb to usb-c adapters for $7.  Then you can buy whatever headlamp you want. :)
