Overview
Hikers, anglers and mechanics get a small rechargeable light that works on the head, clipped to a pocket or stuck to steel by its magnet. One button cycles white, flood and red modes, and it charges over USB Type-C.
Head, clip, hand and magnetic mounting cover nearly every job with one light. The included items are listed only as a flashlight, so check that a headband ships with it.
Who it's for
Made for camping, fishing, running and vehicle work where hands need to stay free. People who want swappable alkaline batteries should choose a different light.
Pros and cons
- Very bright output
- Red light preserves night vision
- Magnetic base for work
- Two-way pocket clip
- Headband not listed in box
- Battery listing is contradictory
- Built-in battery not swappable
Performance notes
Peak brightness triggers temperature control, which lowers output to hold the shell temperature, so the highest setting will not run at full power for long. Lower modes stretch runtime toward the listed maximum.
