BioLite HeadLamp 325 Rechargeable LED Head Torch

The BioLite HeadLamp 325 is a compact, rechargeable head torch that weighs in at only 50 grams. It is available in three different colours and offers both spot and flood outputs as well as strobes.

The 3D Slimfit construction prevents bounce as the housing is integrated directly into the headband for a flush front that stays put, while the moisture wicking smart fabric of the headband keeps you comfortable and dry. Additionally the headband features a reflective strip on the back to keep you seen and safe.

The spot LED provides a maximum output of 325 lumens white light and a beam range of up to 70 metres while the red flood has a beam range of 10 metres. Both white and red outputs have strobe options and are dimmable to get the ideal brightness, and the head torch has a hinged bracket, allowing the light to be tilted for the best angle.

A single button on the top controls all the outputs, and will cycle through the outputs with each press within 0.5 seconds of each other in the order of red flood, white spot, red strobe, white strobe and off. If in any mode for longer that half a second the next press will instead turn the light off. To dim the brightness between high and low in either the white spot or red flood setting, simply hold down the button and release at your desired output. The brightness will decreases or increase, and flash to let you know once it reaches the maximum at either end.

The HeadLamp 325 has mode memory and will remember the last used setting when you next turn it back on (for 12 hours), which is useful if you are carrying out a task in a particular mode that requires you to keep turning the light on and off.

The integrated 700 mAh lithium-ion battery is located on the front of the headband leaving a smooth back band, and can be charged by tilting the front panel down and lifting the dust cover on the side to reveal the micro USB port. Then simply plug the included micro USB cable into the charging port and the other end into a suitable USB power source, the torch will slowly blink green to confirm it is charging stopping when the torch is fully charged. Remove the cable and ensure the dust cover is properly replaced to maintain the IPX4 water resistance rating. When turning the torch off it will blink to indicate the level of charge left. Two green blinks indicate the torch is 50-100% full, two red blinks mean the torch is less than 50% full and four red blinks mean the torch is out of charge.

A lockout function prevents accidental activation in transit and the HeadLamp 325 is put into lockout mode by holding the button down for 8 seconds while the light is off until the red light blinks twice. To exit lockout mode repeat the process again, and the red light will blink once. This will also need to be done when you first take it out of the packaging as it is stored in lockout mode to preserve the battery.

Thanks to the adjustable clips on the headband, the torch can fit both children and adults, and the band is adjusted by pulling on both clips at the same time to tighten or pushing them closer to loosen the headband.
