Klarus HC3 PRO - Clip-On Motion Sensor Light 260 Lumens

The Klarus HC3 PRO clip-on headlamp is an ultra-innovative lighting solution combining extreme lightness and enhanced performance. Weighing only 40g and delivering up to 260 Lumens, it represents a major upgrade over the original HC3: +160% power, +350% beam range, and +20% battery capacity. Its integrated motion sensor and 0°-90° adjustable clip make it the ideal light for night running, night fishing, camping, hiking, and repairs.

Its spot-and-flood optics in 5700K white light deliver balanced illumination with a maximum range of 67 meters (220') in high mode. The steady red light mode at 4 lumens preserves night vision for up to 19 hours, while the red strobe mode ensures effective emergency signaling. These two light sources make the HC3 PRO a versatile tool for all outdoor situations.

The integrated 0°-90° adjustable clip easily attaches to a cap or backpack strap, allowing adjustment from horizontal to vertical lighting angle as needed. The included headband enables instant conversion into a traditional headlamp for hands-free use without a cap.

Hands-free motion control: A simple hand wave 10-15cm (4-6 inches) in front of the light is all it takes to turn it on or off, perfect for night fishing, repairs, or any hands-busy task. The single button also allows direct control with a simple press.

Built from high-strength ABS engineering plastic, the HC3 PRO features IPX6 protection against water splashes and 2-meter drop resistance. Its integrated 600mAh lithium polymer battery delivers up to 36.5 hours of runtime in low mode, approximately 3 full nights of use. Rechargeable in just 2 hours via USB-C, it also supports use while charging.
