Nitecore HM01 Tactical Helmet Light

The HM01 is Nitecore's first compact helmet torch that is specifically designed to be mounted on a ARC rail using the built-in mount for easy attachment.

It utilises a Luminus SST20 W LED combined with a TIR lens that produces a maximum of 320 lumens soft white light with a beam range of up to 74 metres, as well as a low output of 35 lumens for close range tasks.

A CR123A non-rechargeable lithium metal battery is included and provides a run-time of 3 hours on high. A RCR123A/16340 lithium-ion rechargeable battery can also be used, but will need to be purchased separately along with a suitable battery charger. The head of the torch can be unscrewed to install the battery.

To mount the torch onto the rail, slide the base into the ARC rail until the limit screw reaches the desired connection point. Once in position you can tighten the limit screw with the included 2.5 mm hex allen key to secure it in place. The 3D pivoting system allows the light to extend out, and the rotational ball joints are at both sides for flexible 360° positioning at both ends. In order to move the light to the position you require, firstly loose the screws on the base using the included 1.5 mm hex allen wrench. It will then allow you to move it into position, and the screws can be tightened again to ensure the desired position is maintained throughout your task.

A single button controls the HM01, with a long press to turn the light on in low, and once on a single press will toggle between low and high.

The integrated advance temperature regulation (ATR) technology regulates the output of the HM01 according to the working condition and ambient environment to maintain the optimal performance.

Lightweight and compact, the HM01 is the perfect companion for your helmet.
