Bilby 400 Headlamp

Best little Headlamp around, and value for money

My Second One

I love this headlamp! I bought the original one many years ago when it was a Kickstarter offer (I think - it's been that many years!) I still have it and it's still going strong. The rubber housing hasn't stretched or faded and the headlamp still holds a charge for a super long time. I use it all the time in the winter for evening dog walks and even for cleaning my house to see all of the spider webs I might have missed (my house is dark.) The only complaint I have is that occasionally my hair gets pinched at the back where the adjuster clip is, so as long as I am careful when I take it off, or I wear it over a hat, it's fine. I am super happy with this headlamp!

My whole family has these lights. I used it for running. They use it for caving and camping. Love how easy it is to charge, nothing worse then everyone needing cords to charge or different size batteries for their headlights. Plug mine in next to bed and ready to go for morning runs. Small enough to stash in pocket when sun comes up

Features +-

Multiple Light Options

The 5 LEDs on the Bilby are optimally placed for their individual purposes – a high beam to see by, 2 elliptical beams for mid and wide beam angles, a red light for night light purposes and downlights for reading. Within each mode there are four brightness settings. On the brightest setting, the Bilby has a range of up to 330 feet. 

Another outstanding feature of the Bilby is its ability to be customised via Knog’s own Modemaker app. This app allows users to increase Bilby’s modes from 6 up to 8, and choose which order they are operated, allowing users to create a headlamp that is customised to their specific own needs. 

A final unique feature of the Bilby is its special ‘boost mode’ that allows a user to extract full power from 2 LEDs simultaneously. This really lights things up for a period of up to 10 mins.

Rechargeable with Integrated USB

Say goodbye to single use batteries. The outstanding feature of this design is the fact that the USB is integrated into the lighting pod – which means no cables to lose or break. 

To recharge the headlamp, simply plug the pod into a USB-A port, and you’ll have a full charge in just 4 hours from flat.

Matte Silicone Finish

The Bilby’s body and strap are moulded in matte finish medical grade silicone that won’t tangle your hair. It’s easy to clean and is adjustable to fit head circumferences from 11.8 to 26 in. The extremely comfortable silicone strap adjusts with a toggle. Once you’ve found your size you can set and forget or adjust on the fly.

Unique Pod Chassis Design

Our new removable pod chassis design is packed with advanced optics allowing for various beam widths and elevations. Through the use of the 2-intuitive buttons, users can electronically raise and lower the light beam over a 20-degree arc which overcomes the need for the traditional mechanical adjustment ensuring the light points right where you need it when you need it. 

The same removable pod is fitted with an innovative heat sink design, which helps prevents the headlamp overheating even when on full power over long periods of use. And remember, the Bilby is IP67 rated, meaning it’s waterproof to 3 ft as well as dust-proof. This headlamp is made tough.
