{"product_id":"surefire-hl1-helmetlight","title":"SureFire HL1 HelmetLight","description":"\u003cp class=\"product-lead\"\u003eThe SureFire HL1 HelmetLight is a compact, variable-output helmet-mounted light designed for military, law enforcement, and tactical operators who need reliable close-work illumination in low-signature environments. It combines primary LEDs, colored secondary LEDs, and an infrared Identify Friend or Foe (IFF) beacon in a single watertight polymer body. The HL1 is available in Tan or Black, with a choice of Blue\/White or IR\/Yellow\/Green light color configurations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBuilt for Operational Environments\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe HL1's durable polymer body is watertight, meaning it holds up in wet conditions without requiring additional protection. The variable-output design lets operators dial illumination to the task at hand rather than committing to a fixed brightness level, which matters when preserving night vision or avoiding light signature in the field.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThree Light Sources, One Unit\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe HL1 carries three distinct light sources: primary LEDs for general-purpose close-work illumination, colored secondary LEDs optimized for low-signature use in dark-adapted-vision-friendly color, and an infrared IFF beacon included in the box. Having task-specific LEDs in a single compact unit reduces the number of separate lights an operator needs to carry or manage on a helmet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFast Mounting, Full Rotation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe included ambidextrous mount attaches to any Modular Integrated Communications Helmet (MICH) and offers 20 preset positions across a full 360 degrees of rotation, so the light can be positioned precisely for the operator's dominant hand and task angle. Once the mount is in place, the HL1 locks on securely and releases with a single lever press for quick removal, with no tools required. An optional Z71 carry clip (sold separately) extends compatibility to MOLLE or ALICE vests when helmet mounting is not needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable output:\u003c\/strong\u003e adjustable illumination level to suit the task\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThree light sources:\u003c\/strong\u003e primary LEDs, colored secondary LEDs, and an infrared IFF beacon\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWatertight polymer body:\u003c\/strong\u003e durable construction rated for wet conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAmbidextrous MICH mount included:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20 preset positions, true 360-degree rotation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle-lever quick release:\u003c\/strong\u003e secure attachment with fast one-handed removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMOLLE\/ALICE compatible:\u003c\/strong\u003e optional Z71 carry clip (sold separately) for vest mounting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eTan \/ Blue\/White\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eBlack \/ Blue\/White\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eTan \/ IR\/Yellow\/Green\u003c\/th\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eSKU\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eKRC-SF-HL1-A-TN\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eKRC-SF-HL1-A-BK\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eKRC-SF-HL1-D-TN\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eColor\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eTan\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eBlack\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eTan\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eLight Color\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eBlue\/White\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eBlue\/White\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eIR\/Yellow\/Green\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e0.5 lb\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e0.5 lb\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e0.55 lb\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eBody material\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd colspan=\"3\"\u003eWatertight polymer\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eHelmet compatibility\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd colspan=\"3\"\u003eMICH (Modular Integrated Communications Helmet)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eMount positions\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd colspan=\"3\"\u003e20 preset positions, 360-degree rotation\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eIncluded accessories\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd colspan=\"3\"\u003eAmbidextrous MICH mount, IFF beacon\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eOptional accessory\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd colspan=\"3\"\u003eZ71 carry clip (MOLLE\/ALICE vest mounting, sold separately)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWho This Is For and Isn't\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-fit-yes\"\u003eThe SureFire HL1 HelmetLight suits military personnel, law enforcement officers, and tactical operators who need a compact, multi-function helmet light with low-signature colored output and IFF capability.

The IFF beacon is included in the box with every HL1 configuration and does not need to be purchased separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eCan the HL1 be mounted to a vest instead of a helmet?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eThe SureFire HL1 HelmetLight can be mounted to MOLLE or ALICE vests using the optional Z71 carry clip. The Z71 is not included with the HL1 and must be purchased separately. The included mount is designed for MICH helmet attachment only.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eWhat is the difference between the Blue\/White and IR\/Yellow\/Green variants?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eThe SureFire HL1 is available in two light color configurations. The Blue\/White variant provides colored secondary LEDs in blue and white. The IR\/Yellow\/Green variant provides secondary LEDs in infrared, yellow, and green, suited to operators who require infrared output alongside visible low-signature colors. Both variants include primary white LEDs and an IFF beacon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eHow is the HL1 removed from the helmet mount?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eThe SureFire HL1 HelmetLight is released from its mount by pressing a single lever, allowing quick one-handed removal without tools.
