- How long does the battery last?
- About 2.5 hours at 450 lumens and up to 14 hours at the 50-lumen low setting. Runtime scales with the stepless dimmer.
- Can it be used without the head strap?
- Yes. The light head detaches and its magnetic base sticks to steel surfaces such as panels, lifts and toolboxes.
- How do you charge it?
- Through a USB connector with the included rechargeable Li-Ion battery. No disposable batteries are needed.
- Is it waterproof?
- Milwaukee rates it for job-site use, but it is not a dive light. Treat it as water-resistant, not submersible.
- How does it compare with a 500-lumen headlamp?
- Peak output is close, but this one adds the detachable magnetic task light and stepless dimming. Rivals with fixed modes usually run longer on their top setting.
- What is in the box?
- The headlamp with strap, the rechargeable Li-Ion battery and a USB charging cable.
