Description

The HL450N is Bigblue’s compact narrow-beam dive head lamp. It puts 450 lumens into a sharp, focused 10° beam and sits on your head, so your hands stay free. Bigblue calls it multi-purpose and ideal for travel on both land and sea, and lists it as an Advanced main light.

There are four brightness levels: 45, 113, 225 and 450 lumens. Burn time is 2 hours at full power, 4 hours on level III, 8 hours on level II and 20 hours on level I. A body-mounted push button with a battery indicator runs it, for quick, intuitive operation even in challenging conditions.

Power comes from 3 AAA alkaline batteries instead of a rechargeable pack. Batteries aren’t on Bigblue’s in-the-box list, which shows the head lamp and head strap.

The light head is aluminum alloy on a polycarbonate body, with tempered optical glass, and it’s tested to 100 meters. It weighs 187 g with batteries.

Want it on a helmet? Bigblue’s Dive Helmet Head Lamp Mount takes the HL450N, and the FILREDHLN red filter fits it. Both are sold separately. Need more light? The HL1000N puts 1000 lumens into the same 10° beam and runs on a rechargeable 18650 battery.
