Industry-leading brightness
Bright and clear LED illumination for optimal vision during surgical procedures.
Exceptional battery life
Superior battery life that ensures uninterrupted operations.
Ophthalmic Precision
Specifically designed for surgical loupes that require reliable and precise illumination.
Made in Japan
More than half a century of Neitz experience in the highest quality medical optics.
The NTZ-NSI-X 100 lighting system combines power and precision: a uniform LED beam, free of shadows and hot spots, that illuminates the surgical field with true color fidelity. It can be mounted directly onto the loupe frame for a compact, balanced setup, or on a headband, which distributes the weight across the head and provides greater comfort during extended procedures. Choose the configuration that best suits your technique.
The long battery life, exceptional brightness, and comfortable design of the Neitz NSI-X illuminator make it the perfect complement to the Neitz BL surgical loupes and a powerful tool for any clinic.
The NSI-X operates on an integrated rechargeable NiMH battery capable of sustaining the highest illumination level for 3.5 hours. At medium illumination level, the NSI-X can deliver an impressive battery life of 7.5 hours of light, sufficient even for the longest days in the clinic. In the event that the battery runs out, its fast-charging technology allows it to be fully recharged in just 2.5 hours.
The small and lightweight format of the battery pack, along with the long cable reach connecting it to the LED body, allows the NSI-X to rest comfortably in a coat pocket or clipped to a belt.
The NTZ-Headlight NSI-X 100 Illuminator can be turned on/off remotely using the Remote Switch when connected to the Remote Jack (REMOTE) of the Battery Pack, providing the physician with maximum comfort. The Remote Switch operates by pressing the On/Off Switch when the Light Adjustment Knob has been set to level 1, 2, or 3. Each time the Remote Switch is pressed, the Illuminator toggles between on and off. After connecting the Remote Switch, hang it in an easily accessible location using the Hook of Remote Switch.
The NTZ-Headlight NSI-X 100 Illuminator has been designed to be used with the NEITZ Unbreakable Frame and the NEITZ Binocular Loupe.

This level of brightness facilitates ophthalmic examinations performed with the Neitz surgical loupe line and provides crystal-clear clarity to videos and images captured with the SC-I surgical camera system. This is just one of the reasons why the NSI-X received the Good Design Award 2014.
