Ledlenser MH11 Rechargeable LED Head Torch

The Ledlenser MH11 offers a maximum output of 1000 lumens white light from a single high powered LED on the boost setting and comes in black with a silver bezel.

This model is the flagship head torch of the outdoor series and is the first head torch in the series to offer bluetooth connectivity. This enables it to be controlled and personalised via a “Ledlenser Connect” app. This app, available on both iOS and Android, provides the ability for users to set up to six individual light profiles to suit needs, as well as set timer, interval and SOS signals or activate the integrated automatic dimming Opti-sense Technology. Users who like to read before bed can use the slow-dim function to turn the light off after a certain time - ideal for battery-saving use when camping.

The first press in the white light mode will access the optisense function where the output will automatically adjust between 100%-10% depending on how close you are to an object and then each press after that will cycle through the four white settings of low, mid, high, strobe and then off with each press. If in any setting for longer that 5 seconds, the next press will turn the head torch off. The boost mode is momentary and is turned on by double pressing the button within 5 seconds in any state. After 10 seconds the boost will revert back to the previous output or off if it was activated with the light off.

The MH11 also features a red, blue and green light which are useful for low level lighting, preserving the users night vision, animal spotting and map reading amongst other uses. Once in the RGB mode each press cycles through in the order of red light, green light and blue light.

To change between the app mode, white mode and RGB mode simply hold the button down from off and the light will then blink once for app mode, twice for white mode and three times for RGB mode.

When the light is first turned on, the battery indicator will display a green, yellow or red light for 2 seconds to show the charge status of the battery so that you know when it needs charging. If the battery is very low, the light will blink four times while in use.

The light can be focused from a flood beam to a spot beam by twisting the focusing bezel outwards and the hinged bracket allows the MH11 to be swivelled up or down within a 120° angle so that you can position the light where you need it. The torch can be taken off the bracket / head band and used hands free.

The MH11 is powered by a lithium-ion battery pack which is included and is charged inside the head lamp. To install or change the batteries the head lamp firstly needs to be removed from the bracket. The battery cover can then be popped open so that you can put in the rechargeable lithium-ion battery.

To charge the lithium-ion battery you need to connect the magnetic end of the included cable to the charging point on the underside of the head lamp and the standard USB at the other end plugs into a computer or compatible USB adaptor (not included). The battery indicator light will turn red to show charging is in progress and will go green once charging is complete.

To prevent accidental activation in transit the MH11 can be put into a lockout state by holding down the button for 5 seconds from off until either light blink four times rapidly. To unlock the torch hold the button down again for 5 seconds until the light first blink twice, followed by four blinks.

A great head torch for everyday use and activities such as climbing, camping and hiking and comes supplied with a nylon pouch for storage when not in use which also has a belt loop for easy carrying.
