Nice Light by Legacy Reviewer, April 28, 2012
Overall this is a good little light. I like that the on/off button is larger than similar lights I looked at, making it easy to manipulate with gloves on. I mounted it to a ballistic helmet, and it's on there good and sturdy. I also like that it can ...

Sidewinder by Greg, Verified Owner, April 11, 2018
It has great features with the different style lights and is easy to use. It seems strong and will hold up to the abuse I'll put it through. It is a bit bulky when wearing it on the rail of my helmet. I feel that if they created one that had a rail m...

Perfect Headlamp for all situations by DeltaBravo, March 11, 2016
I've bought 2 because they're so good. I love the ability to use different batteries (AA & AAA). I've used red lamp feature as well. It's a full featured light - use as headlamp or attach to helmet. Highly recommended.

Product Info for Streamlight Sidewinder Compact II Military Flashlight

Streamlight Sidewinder Compact II Helmet-Mounted Flashlight is a powerful hands-free, multi-battery, multi-source flashlight that provides reliable tactical illumination in five different modes. These highly versatile and battle-tested Streamlight flashlights utilize C4 LED technology to produce up to 55 lumens of light from your helmet, belt, or hands. Built with an incredibly tough nylon case, the Stream Light Sidewinder Compact 2 Military Flash Light is O-ring sealed and features IPX7 waterproofing, giving you tactical illumination in heavy rains or wet environments. The Sidewinder Compact II operates in four brightness settings plus a Strobe mode, all toggled via a pull-to-turn locking rotary selector knob that can be easily operated from your helmet, wearing gloves, and with only one hand. However, Streamlight has included not just the white C4 bulb, but also a red, infrared, and blue LED bulb to preserve your night vision or for use with a night vision device. The Side Winder Compact 2 flashlight was designed to be mounted on a helmet, and its body can tilt up to 185 degrees, giving you independent control of the flashlight even when it's on your helmet. For a tough, efficient, and multi-use flashlight for military service men and women, equip yourself with the Stream-Light Side Winder Compact Two 4-Mode LED Illuminator.image
