BioLite HeadLamp 330
Wildly Capable. Simply Comfortable.
On a recent camping trip, BioLite’s designers observed people sitting around the campfire with their headlamps around their necks and red marks on their foreheads. Their friends and teammates only wore their headlamps when absolutely necessary because they were bulky, uncomfortable, and constantly reminded users of their presence. This led the team to wonder why so many other wearables (sound, footwear, eyewear) have evolved into modern, lighter, smarter designs yet headlamps have remained largely the same.
BioLite set out to change that and ultimately developed a powerful, rechargeable headlamp with unprecedented fit thanks to our proprietary 3DSlimFit Construction. With 330 lumens and 4 lighting modes, the BioLite HeadLamp 330 provides top-tier performance with a fit unlike any other headlamp. By integrating electronics into the fabric with a custom molded housing, BioLite packs the lighting into an ultra-thin facing that is designed to sit flush on a user’s forehead and move with them seamlessly. By relocating the power source to the back of the head, BioLite solves the classic slippage problem. Headlamps are generally worn at a slight angle, with the light in the upper position. If you put all the weight where the light is, it’s going to seek equilibrium which means a slow and constant slip downward. By keeping the front super light and minimal and moving those grams to the back of your head, BioLite’s HeadLamp embraces a gravity-friendly design that feels nearly weightless when you put it on. Paired with an efficient, compact lens and high-performance fabric that can withstand a variety of activity, the BioLite HeadLamp 330 introduced the category to truly wearable tech for the first time in 2018. And, thanks to its rechargeability, you can ditch the alkalines and fill up using power banks, solar panels, or any other micro-USB source.
