Head Strap

Other Types of Lights LED Headlamps

I was thinking of get a Ultrafire Headlamp the 18650 and AA ones.

But the prices are expensive, so I decided to get 2 Head straps aso I can attach my normal flashlights to my head.

Can anyone help I need one for a 18650 light and one for AA light.

the Nitecore headband might work for you.

I have this ultrafire one: http://kaidomain.com/ProductDetails.aspx?ProductId=10960

It is similar to the one that comes with the UF-H2, but with larger elastic rings for the flashlight.

I usually use it with a trustfire R5-A3 or a akoray k-106. It also fits the UF-H2 without needing to remove the pocket clip.

Since you mentioned 18650 lights, I've just tried it with a trustfire TR-801 and it fits, however it feels a little heavy, (need to tighten the elastic headband more).

it might fit, it would be pretty tight. but i've never been a big fan of Niteize bands. maybe it's the shape of my head, but i've always thought that they weren't as comfortable as elastic headbands.

Ive got 2 of the nitecore headbands, version 1 and 2, and they both are very very useful additions to a torch collection. I use one for the angle headlamp (UF-h2) short range light. And any AA single torch on the other, for quick go to hands free light. For otdooor/work

I use this headband from ortec for my lights that are bigger than 1 - 2 AAs:

Advantage is that you can adjust the angle and it fits my (old) UK 4AA and my smaller 18650 lights. Only problem is that the elastic straps holding the light don't have a good grip/are slippery (work fine with a piece of bike tube around the light, though)

It may appear expansive... but the fenix head strap it's almost a bargain for the quality.

2 holsters, both removable and inclinable. 2 waterproof battery holsters.

The size is good for small size 18650 lights and under.

I just ordered a Nitecore HBO2 from Battery Junction. A little less than $11 delivered and shipped from inside the USA. Looks like just what I have been looking for to hold my 18650 lights a little better than my Niteze.

A 18650 battery strapped on my head jsut feels wrong to me. Id rather have a belt clipped thick aluminum completely sealed unit with little vent holes capped (blows of if the cells go nasty) at one side and absolutely away from me.

I might make (have them machined) a few choice of 2S or 2P 18650 sized for bike use with switch and safety vent.

I like the Fenix headband, cause I can have two flashlights on my head instead of one :wink:
It won’t support an 18650 light (not a thick walled one) but it’ll fit the cr123 or AA size with no problems. I run two Solarforce L2R’s one with an R2 smooth reflector and one with an R5 Orangepeel reflector :slight_smile: bright and great throw for there size.
Board and secures are way easier when you have more light than you need :wink:
