Perhaps something that is overlooked by many airsoft players, but for those who go into long weekend games, they find that having a headlamp helps them free their hands when they navigating at night or looking for stuff in the dark. While there are lots of choices of headlamps in outdoors market nowadays, Biolite promises a revolutionary headlamp that may just blow away the competition as it is also affordable.

Simply called the Biolite Headlamp, the company claims that the 330 lumen headlamp with four lighting modes is comfortable to wear and is also rechargeable.  The company are raising funds now on Kickstarter and with funding goal reached on the same day it was launched, those from Canada and the US who have pledged funding may just receive theirs by the holiday season.

“We have an amazing community on Kickstarter, which made it the perfect place to launch the HeadLamp,” says BioLite co-founder and CEO Jonathan Cedar. “The Kickstarter environment invites people to really dig into what makes our design so different and create space for a truly unique offering in a historically crowded category.”

To achieve this design for a headlamp, Biolite credits their proprietary 3D SlimFit Construction:

That unique design is anchored by BioLite’s proprietary 3D SlimFit Construction; by integrating the electronics and fabrics together into a seamless unit using a custom, composite molded housing, the HeadLamp’s 9mm front sits flush on the forehead and eliminates bounce. Through redirection of the Li-Ion power source to the back of the head, BioLite creates a gravity-friendly design, allowing users to enjoy a near weightless feel without worry of slippage. Moisture-wicking fabrics keep users cool and dry while internally bonded layers protect electronics from sweat. With 330 lumens and four lighting modes, including strobe and red night mode, the BioLite HeadLamp provides top-tier lighting performance.

The Biolite Headlamp weighs 2.42oz (69 grams) with a 3.5 hour run time on high power and 40 hour run time on low power. The beam throw can reach distance of 16 meters on flood and 75 meters on spot. As for the lightning modes:  it has Dimmable White spot, Dimmable White Flood, Dimmable Spot/Flood, Red Flood, and Strobe.

The  Biolite Headlamp will be available in four colors: four colours midnight grey, sunrise yellow, ember red and ocean teal. For those backing the product on Kickstarter, they will receive eceive a light-diffusing stuffsack. They can put the Headlamp into it, transforming it into a hangable lantern as well as a storage sack for transport.
