IR/Visible Light Red+Green Helmet Light

[Seth_Erebor]

Looking for recommendations for a helmet light () that has the following features:

 

IR Constant/Strobe

Red and Green Visible

 

The repro Hel Star 6 and Manta lights are ok, I'm not looking to spend more than £40-60.

 

I will be editing in ones that I find for second opinions.

 

Thanks

The Manta one you linked (repro ones found on eBay) do the job well enough and are about £20. The LEDs are really bright, which is either a good or bad thing depending on what you want.

I've got the FMA Manta, does the trick, but I will be replacing the shoddy velcro...

Yeah FMA and Element seem to be the main people making them.

I think I will go for one of them.

Or perhaps consider S&S Precision v-lites. Get 2 - 1 IR and 1 colour.

I really like them, might go for that instead. Good shout!

Have a look on eBay, there are a few on there, and the generic brand ones are cheap as.

Ah, batteries are not replaceable.

They last for ages, but your call.

True, I think it is the best option so far.

I'm going for a combo, Hel Star 6 Green + V-Lite Red/Hel Star 5 Red.

That way I get red, green and IR.

 

Thanks for the help and advice guys!
