Flood

Drop these headlamps in water and they’ll still work—they’re IP rated to withstand submersion for at least 30 minutes. Use them to shine light on your work while keeping your hands free. All can cast either a spot beam with a bright center for long distances, or a uniform flood beam for close-up tasks and inspection work. These headlamps are tested against ANSI/PLATO FL 1 standards to confirm the accuracy of performance attributes such as beam distance, impact resistance, and battery life.

Rechargeable Battery


Style A	Style B

Style C

Style A—Style A can be used as a flashlight—just snap them out of the strap. Wrap them around a hard hat with their rubber-coated elastic strap, or attach them with the included clips. The strap is reflective, so drivers will see you. These headlamps have a battery life indicator to let you know when to recharge. If you need these headlamps to work right away and can’t wait for them to charge, you can use disposable batteries instead of their rechargeable one. They work with two CR123 batteries.

Style B—Style B can be used as a flashlight—just snap them out of the strap. Wrap them around a hard hat with their rubber-coated elastic strap, or attach them with the included clips. The strap is reflective, so drivers will see you. These headlamps have a battery life indicator to let you know when to recharge. If you need these headlamps to work right away and can’t wait for them to charge, you can use disposable batteries instead of their rechargeable one. They work with three AAA batteries.

Style C—Style C fit on a welding helmet or hard hat without weighing down the front of your head. The battery pack is in the back to balance the weight. You can also hang the pack off your belt by adding the included extension cable. To connect these headlamps to a welding helmet, use the included snap-together fasteners. To wrap around a hard hat, attach the rubber strap—no clips required. A battery life indicator lets you know when to recharge.

Green Beam—On headlamps with color options, the green beam shows more contrast than the red beam, but it can interfere with your ability to see in dark conditions.

Red Beam—On headlamps with color options, the red beam lets you see in low light without disrupting your night vision.

IP68 Enclosure Rating—IP68-rated headlamps can be submerged in water for more than 30 minutes. They’re also sealed against dust.

These headlamps are tested against ANSI/PLATO FL 1 standards to confirm the accuracy of performance attributes such as beam distance, impact resistance, and battery life.

Rechargeable Battery

Style A

Style A—Style A withstand drops from up to 6 feet.

Spot Beam—Headlamps with a spot beam have a bright center for lighting up long distances.

Flood Beam—Headlamps with a flood beam cast a uniform spread of light that’s good for close-up tasks and inspection work.

Intrinsic Safety—Intrinsically safe headlamps cannot cause an explosion, so they're a better choice where hazardous material is present in normal operating conditions.

Charging Base—Headlamps with a charging base can mount out of the way to keep your charging area free of clutter.

Hazardous Location Rating—Hazardous location ratings indicate where manufacturers have included safety features in products to facilitate their safe use in hazardous environments. Before selecting a product for a hazardous location, ensure it is rated for your environment.

Headlamps for Rescue and Tactical Helmets


Style A	Style B


Style B (with Included Strap)	Spot Beam

Clip these headlamps right into a mount on your tactical or rescue helmet. You can also clip them onto your gear’s MOLLE strap. These headlamps all have multiple LED color options for different scenarios. Use the red or blue beam in low-light environments to preserve your night vision. The blue beam lets you see more details and color differences than the red beam—you can even read. The green beam shows more contrast than red and blue beams, but it can interfere with your ability to see in dark conditions. Meeting ANSI/Plato F1, these lights have been tested for light output, impact resistance, and run time.

Style A—Style A are best for lighting up long distances where water is a concern. Our most water-resistant option, they’re rated IP08 to handle prolonged submersion. Their spot beam has a bright center to illuminate faraway objects. When wearing night-vision goggles, switch these headlamps to infrared light to see clear, crisp images in dim light or pitch black. You can also program the order that the beam colors appear with each push of a button based on your preference. Bend the arm to direct light where you need it. To keep them from turning on accidentally, they have a digital lockout option. These headlamps include common helmet mount adapters such as ARC, M-LOK, MICH, Picatinny, and ABR.

Style B—Style B project light the farthest of these headlamps. Tilt them up to 90° to point light where you need it. To view clear images through night-vision goggles in dim light or pitch black, switch them to infrared light. A digital lockout option keeps the beam from turning on accidentally. IP07-rated for temporary submersion, they’ll keep working if you drop them in water. These headlamps are compatible with NVG mounts and include a strap if you want to wear them without a helmet.
