We think that headlamps are great for their hands-free applications- this comes with the caveat that they’re not super easy to hold in your hand comfortably. The Fenix HM61R is a side carry flashlight with an easy to use mount point for the included headband. Along with this touch of versatility, the HM61R has some unique features like a magnetic mount for fixing the light to metal surfaces.
It goes without saying that the HM61R isn’t optimized for outdoor applications, there’s no reason you couldn’t use it in the backcountry but its weight and intention is more suited for contracting and crawl spaces than cliffsides.
Things we like:
-
The best model for industrial or commercial purposes
Things we don't like:
-
A lot of its best features won’t be much use outside
- Max Brightness: 1600 Lumens
- Max Burn Time: 300 Hours (not ANSI rated)
- Brightness Levels: 5 + Red Light
- Battery: Rechargeable Lithium Ion
