Princeton Tec Switch MPLS Helmet Mounted Task Light LED Headlamp
I have the same and from what I can tell our best option is to attach a small section of picatinny to the m-lok section and mount it that way. This light, according to reviews, has a pic rail adapter.
The plastic tabs broke off the first time I tried to attach it to one of the mounts. The light portion works well, but I now need to tape or Velcro it to my bump helmet if I want to use it. I emailed Princeton and they said they’ll fix it, but expect...

Package was loose and open, out of package but nothing was damaged. Upon installation, light does not function despite troubleshooting and visual inspection.

Features of Princeton Tec Switch MPLS Helmet Helmet Mounted Task Light
Focused Wide Beam: This beam pattern is an excellent choice for multipurpose activities. At close range, wide beams simulate normal daylight conditions and allow you to take advantage of your peripheral vision.
IPX4: These lights are designed for water resistance to splashing and quick dunkings. If a light with a IPX4 rating is accidentally submerged for a longer period of time, the batteries should be removed and the cabinets should be carefully inspected for signs of battery leakage. If water has entered the housing, the light should be dried and batteries replaced.
Ultrabright LED: The Ultrabright LED is bright and efficient. The smooth, white, wide-beam light emitted by Ultrabright LEDs is ideal for close to mid-range tasks. Ultrabright LEDs are usually grouped together to offer a more powerful light source. Advances currently underway will continue to improve the efficiency and brightness of Ultrabright LEDs. "Ultrabright" can also be yelled when using the term in conversation, but not nearly as loud as "Maxbright".
