- Why Bulletproof Zone?
The Fenix HL45R is a rechargeable headlamp built for outdoor professionals and active users who need both white and red light in a single, durable unit. It outputs up to 1000 lumens across a beam distance of 722 feet (220 meters), runs up to 54 hours on a charge, and accepts either its included 1900mAh rechargeable battery pack or three AAA batteries. One size is available.
Dual Light Sources, One Rotary Dial
The HL45R carries two separate LEDs: a Luminus SFT25R cold white LED and an OSRAM GR QSSPA1.23 red LED. Switching between them requires only a turn of the rotary dial, so a user moving from a lit trail to a low-visibility situation does not need to cycle through modes to reach red light. Eight total modes (four white levels, three red levels, and red flash) give precise control over output and battery draw without unnecessary complexity.
Adjustable Beam, Hands-Free Control
A focus ring on the HL45R lets the user shift the white light beam from a wide flood to a concentrated spotlight, adapting the same headlamp to close-range camp tasks or longer-distance trail reading. A gesture-sensing control adds a hands-free option: a wave of the hand toggles the lamp on or off, useful when hands are occupied or gloved. Brightness adjusts separately via a side button tap, keeping the two controls distinct and reducing accidental mode changes.
Built for Field Conditions
The HL45R uses aluminum alloy construction, carries an IP66 waterproof rating, and is impact resistant, making it suitable for rain, dust, and rough handling. The headlamp accepts a 1900mAh rechargeable pack charged via USB Type-C or three AAA batteries as an alternative, so it remains usable when a power source for charging is not available. Total weight with battery and headband is 4.69 oz (133 g).

Who This Is For and Isn't
The Fenix HL45R suits outdoor professionals, hikers, campers, and tactical users who need reliable white and red light in one headlamp, value hands-free gesture control, and want the option to recharge via USB-C or fall back to AAA batteries in the field. The IP66 rating and aluminum alloy body make it appropriate for wet or dusty environments.
The HL45R is not a ballistic or protective product and carries no armor or protection rating. Users who need a headlamp compatible with ballistic helmets should confirm headband and mount compatibility before purchase, as no helmet-mount adapter is listed in the included accessories.
Common Questions
What battery does the Fenix HL45R use, and can it run on standard batteries?
The Fenix HL45R includes a Fenix ARB-LP1900 1900mAh rechargeable battery pack that charges via the included USB Type-C cable. The headlamp also accepts three standard AAA batteries, providing a backup power option when charging is not available in the field.
How do the white and red light modes work on the HL45R?
The Fenix HL45R uses a rotary dial to switch between its white and red light sources. White light offers four brightness levels plus a focus ring that adjusts the beam from flood to spotlight. Red light offers three brightness levels and a red flash mode, selectable independently from the white modes.
What does the gesture-sensing control do?
The Fenix HL45R includes a gesture-sensing feature that turns the headlamp on or off when the user waves a hand in front of the sensor. This allows hands-free operation when hands are wet, gloved, or otherwise occupied. Brightness adjustment is handled separately via the side button.
Is the Fenix HL45R waterproof?
The Fenix HL45R carries an IP66 waterproof rating, meaning it is protected against powerful water jets and heavy rain. The aluminum alloy body also provides impact resistance. IP66 does not cover submersion, so the HL45R is not rated for underwater use.
What is included with the Fenix HL45R?
The Fenix HL45R ships with the Fenix ARB-LP1900 1900mAh rechargeable battery pack, a USB Type-C charging cable, and the headband. No helmet mount adapter or additional accessories are listed as included.

The Bulletproof Zone Promise
When you buy body armor, you're buying your safety. We don't take that lightly. Here's what every order from Bulletproof Zone includes.
1. Authorized dealer of every brand we carry
Every plate, vest, and carrier we ship comes from the manufacturer directly to our warehouse. We don't sell gray-market product, surplus, or returns. That means factory-fresh stock, the full manufacturer warranty, and real after-sale support — the kind only an authorized dealer can offer.
We maintain authorized-dealer relationships with America's leading body armor brands, including Spartan Armor Systems, AR500 Armor, RMA Defense, Shellback Tactical, Caliber Armor, DFNDR Armor, Protection Group Denmark, BulletSafe, BulletBlocker, and over 40 more.
2. Best price, guaranteed
If you find a lower price at another authorized dealer of the same product within six months of your purchase, we'll refund the difference.
Why the "authorized dealer" requirement? Because gray-market and surplus armor may not be genuine, may have a compromised supply chain, and almost never comes with a manufacturer warranty. We won't price-match against products that may not actually protect you.
3. Free fitment consultation
Body armor only protects you if it fits. Email us a photo and your measurements before you order, and one of our specialists will help you size your carrier and plates correctly — at no charge, no obligation.
4. Trusted by thousands of customers
Bulletproof Zone has been a trusted authorized dealer of America's leading body armor manufacturers for over five years. We have over 4,000 verified Trustpilot reviews from real customers across all 50 states.

- The item must be in stock on the competitor's website at the time of your request.

- The competitor must be an authorized dealer of the product. Auction sites (eBay, Overstock), discounters, and gray-market resellers do not qualify.
