FAQs
How long does the battery last on a full charge?
Run times vary by mode: Low (15 lumens) up to 5 hours, Medium (50 lumens) up to 2 hours, High (150 lumens) up to 1 hour. Turbo mode operates in 30-second intervals. Red and Green modes last up to 10 hours.
Can I use the headlamp while it's charging?
Yes, the headlamp can typically be used while charging, but performance might be affected, and it's not recommended for extended use in high-power modes during charging.
What does IPX4 water resistance mean?
IPX4 means the headlamp is protected against splashes of water from any direction. It is not designed for submersion.
How do I switch between headlamp and cap light mode?
The headlamp unit detaches from the headband and can be attached to the included cap light clip, which then clips onto a hat brim.
What is the difference between the red and green light modes?
Both red and green lights are designed to preserve night vision better than white light. They are useful for tasks where maintaining natural night adaptation is important, such as astronomy or wildlife observation.
How do I activate the PowerSave lockout?
To activate, turn off the light. Then, press and hold the power button for approximately 5 seconds until the light flashes briefly or turns off again. To deactivate, press and hold the power button again for about 5 seconds.
Troubleshooting
Headlamp does not turn on.
Ensure the headlamp is charged. Check the PowerSave lockout is disengaged by pressing and holding the side button for a few seconds. Verify the battery is installed correctly if applicable (though this model has a built-in battery).
Light output is dim or flickers.
The battery may be low; recharge the headlamp. Ensure the LED lens is clean and free of debris. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
Turbo mode does not stay on.
This is by design. Turbo mode is intended for short bursts of maximum brightness and will automatically revert to the previous mode after 30 seconds to prevent overheating and conserve battery.
Headlamp won't recharge.
Ensure the USB-C cable is securely connected to both the headlamp and the power source. Try a different USB cable or power source. Make sure the charging port is clean and dry.
