{"product_id":"streamlight-vantage-180-x-helmet-light","title":"Streamlight Vantage 180 X Helmet Light","description":"\u003cp class=\"product-lead\"\u003eThe Streamlight Vantage 180 X is a lightweight helmet light, right-angle light, and pocket flashlight in one unit, designed for firefighters and rescue personnel who need hands-free illumination and rear visibility during operations. A front-facing C4 white LED provides primary illumination, while a rear-facing blue LED functions as a safety tail light visible through heavy smoke. The light is available in orange and black, each packaged with a CR123A battery and a helmet bracket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThree Lights in One Compact Unit\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Vantage 180 X combines a forward-facing C4 white LED, a rear-facing blue safety LED, and a position-sensing mode change into a single body. When mounted on a helmet and oriented forward, the blue LED faces rearward, making the wearer visible to crew members behind them in low-visibility or smoke-filled environments. Rotating the head of the light 90 degrees automatically switches the blue LED to white, redirecting light downward for close-work or ground-level tasks without any manual button press.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eMounts to a Helmet, Detaches in Seconds\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe included helmet bracket features a quick-release mechanism that lets the Vantage 180 X detach from the helmet for immediate use as a handheld flashlight. Once removed, the light can clip to a coat, pocket, or turnout gear via its turnout gear attachment hook, keeping it accessible without a separate carry case or holster. The bracket stays on the helmet; the light travels with the wearer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSerialized for Accountability\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach Vantage 180 X is individually serialized, supporting positive identification and equipment tracking across a crew or department.

The individual serialization makes it practical for departments that track equipment by unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-fit-no\"\u003eThe Vantage 180 X is not a ballistic or protective device and provides no protection against physical threats. Its stated role is helmet-mounted crew visibility and close-work task lighting, not primary long-range search illumination. Output levels, beam distance, and runtime are not stated for this light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCommon Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eDoes the Vantage 180 X come with a helmet bracket?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eYes. The Vantage 180 X includes a helmet bracket with a quick-release mechanism. The bracket mounts to the helmet and holds the light securely during operations; the quick release lets the wearer detach the Vantage 180 X in seconds for handheld or clipped use without tools.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eWhat does the blue LED do, and when does it switch to white?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eWhen the Vantage 180 X is mounted on a helmet in the forward-facing position, the blue LED faces rearward and functions as a safety tail light visible through heavy smoke. Rotating the head of the light 90 degrees automatically switches that LED from blue to white, providing downcast illumination for close-work tasks. No manual button press is required for the switch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eCan the Vantage 180 X be used without the helmet bracket?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eYes. The Vantage 180 X detaches from the helmet bracket and can be carried as a pocket flashlight or clipped directly to a coat, pocket, or turnout gear using its built-in turnout gear attachment hook. The helmet bracket remains on the helmet when the light is removed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eWhat battery does the Vantage 180 X use?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eThe Vantage 180 X runs on a CR123A battery. Both the orange and black variants use the CR123A battery type.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eHow is the Vantage 180 X identified within a crew or department?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eEach Vantage 180 X unit is individually serialized, meaning it carries a unique serial number. This supports positive identification and equipment accountability for departments or agencies that log gear by unit, without requiring aftermarket labels or markings.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Streamlight","offers":[{"title":"Orange \/ Box \/ CR123A","offer_id":67031095935347,"sku":"KRC-STRE-88901","price":169.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ Box \/ CR123A","offer_id":67031095968115,"sku":"KRC-STRE-88903","price":169.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1926\/7025\/files\/vantage-180.png?v=1791004175","url":"https:\/\/bulletproofzone.com\/products\/streamlight-vantage-180-x-helmet-light","provider":"Bulletproof Zone","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
