Milwaukee Tools Launches Major Expansion of Their Headlamp Offering

The leading jobsite lighting provider in the industry, Milwaukee Tool, continues to expand their rapidly-growing Personal Lighting family of products with a major expansion of their headlamp solutions.

The line-up includes two new rechargeable lights – a game-changing USB Rechargeable HI-VIS Hard Hat Light, which provides 360° of personal safety lighting, and a USB Rechargeable Low-Profile Headlamp. Also launching is a non-rechargeable solution, the Milwaukee® Spot/Flood Headlamp.

“At any time of day, in any work environment, ensuring yourself and others are visible is critical. Milwaukee Tool has a long tradition of improving safety through product innovation, so we paired our leadership in cordless technology and our advanced lighting features to improve users’ safety through a range of new high-output headlamps,” said Gaetano Martines, Product Manager for Milwaukee Tool. “The most groundbreaking of these headlamps is a USB Rechargeable HI-VIS Hard Hat Light – the first headlamp to provide high-output task lighting combined with active personal safety lighting.”

At the core of the new rechargeable solutions is Milwaukee Tool’s revolutionary REDLITHIUM USB* – an extremely compact, removeable battery technology:

USB Rechargeable Hard Hat Light HI-VIS

The USB Rechargeable Hard Hat Light HI-VIS is the epitome of Milwaukee Tools approach to deliver personal safety lighting with uncompromised task lighting performance. This Hard Hat Light makes wearers visible in all directions by combining exceptional hands-free task lighting with an innovative HI-VIS backhead personal safety light that wraps around the backside of hard hats. With steady and blinking light options, the HI-VIS personal safety light makes users visible up to 400 meter from all directions when used with the front hard hat light. The front hard hat light delivers 600 Lumens of TRUEVIEW High Definition Output with spot and flood beam modes. Overall, this hard hat light is a safer option for roadside, tunnel or underground work, spotters, signalers and users working around moving equipment.  

Compatible with all hard hats, this light’s elastic strap, silicon grip and universal hardhat clips adjust to any size or type. Wearers can achieve all-day run time with five light output modes: Hybrid Spot/Flood, Flood High, Flood Medium, Flood Low, and Spot High. Water and dust resistant, the USB Rechargeable Hard Hat Light HI-VIS can withstand up to 2 m drops and the toughest conditions on and off the jobsite.

USB Rechargeable Low-Profile Headlamp

Designed for convenient bare or hard hat use, the USB Rechargeable Low-Profile Headlamp features a thin 2,5 cm light head which, despite its small size, delivers wide flood beam coverage and 600 Lumens of TRUEVIEW High Definition Output. With the battery pack positioned in the rear, this headlamp offers maximum maneuverability in tight spaces and a balanced design for all-day use. Versatile for all headwear, it features a sweat-absorbing microfiber strap for bare head comfort, and hard hat clips for a secure connection to all hardhats.

Users can easily maximise the light output or extend run time with 4 light output modes: High, Medium, Low, and Eco for 25+ hours of run time. Water and dust resistant, this headlamp can withstand up to 2 m drops and the toughest conditions on and off the jobsite.

Also available is one non-rechargeable solution:

Alkaline Spot/Flood Headlamp

The new Alkaline Spot/Flood Headlamp gives user spot and flood functionality while maintaining a compact and lightweight design. With 450 Lumens of TRUEVIEW High Definition Output, a 100 m spot beam and five different modes, users can choose the best beam type, output or run time for the task at hand. A premium strap with sweat absorbing microfiber provides an all-day comfort while optional Hard Hat Clips allow for attachment to any Hard Hat. The headlamp is powered by (3) AAA batteries.

These new headlamps join Milwaukee Tools fast-growing Personal Lighting offering. Focused on the user and investing in game-changing technology, Milwaukee Tool will continue to design and develop lighting solutions with the ability to adapt, perform and survive the demands of professional use.

* REDLITHIUM USB gives users rechargeable convenience and performance where maintaining a compact size is critical, and eliminates the downtime associated with other rechargeable solutions due to slow charge speed or integrated batteries. Capable of being charged either on the product or on a separate charger, and with a 3X faster charge time, users can get back to work more quickly. Plus, with over 2,000 recharges, REDLITHIUM USB eliminates the dependency on disposable batteries in situations of extended use.

** TRUEVIEW Technology utilises the most advanced LED technology and optical designs to deliver a consistent beam, optimised colour temperature, and true representation of colors and detail leading to a more productive work area.
