Yato Headlamp 5W 500LM IPX4 3.7V 350 mAh battery

The Yato headlamp is designed specifically for professional use where reliable and efficient lighting is required. This rechargeable headlamp is equipped with a durable Li-Po battery that guarantees a long operating time on a single charge, which is critical for long-term work tasks. Thanks to the IPX4 protection class, the lamp is resistant to splash water and is therefore an excellent choice even for challenging weather conditions. The magnet on the base of the lamp allows it to be attached to metal surfaces, leaving the user's hands free to work. This feature makes the lamp very versatile in various work environments.
Two power versions are available: 5W and 15W. The 5W model offers an excellent balance between light output and battery life, making it well suited for general use and longer-term tasks where maximum light output is not required continuously. The 15W model is designed for situations where very bright light is needed for large areas or for detailed work in low light or darkness. Both versions utilize modern LED technology, which ensures efficient lighting with low power consumption and a long service life.
The ergonomic design of the headlamp and the adjustable headband ensure comfort even during long periods of use. The lightness of the lamp, together with the balanced structure, prevents neck strain. In addition, the lamp has several light modes that allow you to adjust the light output according to your needs, which optimizes battery life and the amount of light. The user can easily switch between different light modes, which increases the flexibility of the lamp for different work tasks.

Intended use:

Maintenance and repair work: Thanks to the magnetic attachment, the lamp can be easily attached to the side of vehicles, machines or other metal structures, leaving both hands free for maintenance and repair work. The powerful light illuminates the work area brightly, improving work accuracy and safety.
Construction sites: IPX4 protection allows the lamp to be used even in damp and dusty conditions on construction sites. Bright light is essential in dark or poorly lit areas, such as basements, tunnels or for nighttime work. Different light intensities allow the light to be adjusted to the requirements of the task.
Rescue operations: A powerful and reliable light is a critical part of the rescue personnel's equipment. The bright light of the Yato headlamp helps in search and rescue missions in difficult conditions. The magnetic attachment can be useful as a temporary light source in vehicles or other metal surfaces.
Industrial Inspection Work: Precise and detailed industrial inspections require good lighting. The 15W version is particularly suitable for this purpose, providing very bright light to see even the smallest details. The rechargeable battery ensures that you don't run out of power in the middle of an important inspection.
Camping and outdoor activities for professional use: Although primarily designed for professional use, the lamp's durability and efficiency also make it suitable for demanding outdoor conditions where a reliable light source is vital. For example, during nighttime maintenance work in the field or at campsites.

Yato Headlamp IPX4 rechargeable user manual:

Charging: Before first use, fully charge the headlamp using the supplied USB cable. Connect one end of the cable to the charging port on the headlamp and the other end to a USB power source (e.g. a computer USB port or USB power adapter). The indicator light will be red during charging and will turn green when the battery is full. Charging time may vary depending on the power source.
Placement on the head: Place the headlamp on your head so that the light part is on your forehead and the headband goes around your head. Adjust the headband to a tight enough fit so that the headlamp stays securely in place but is not too tight.
Turning on the light and changing the light mode: Turn on the lamp by pressing the power button. The lamp usually starts in the default light mode. To change the light mode, press the power button briefly again. The different light modes may include different brightness levels and possibly a flashing light. Get to know the different light modes of the lamp by testing the button.
Adjusting the lighting angle: On most models, the angle of the lighting section can be adjusted up or down. Adjust the lighting angle so that the light is directed at the desired work area.
Using the magnetic mount: If you want to mount the lamp on a metal surface, place the magnet on the bottom of the lamp directly against the metal surface. Make sure the mount is secure before releasing your grip on the lamp.
Turning off the lamp: Press and hold the power button for a few seconds to turn off the lamp.
Maintenance: Clean the exterior of the lamp with a soft, damp cloth when necessary. Do not immerse the lamp in water or other liquids, even though it is IPX4 protected. Regularly check the condition of the headband and adjust if necessary. Store the lamp in a dry, cool place when not in use.
Battery life: Battery life depends on the light mode you choose. Brighter modes use more power than dimmer modes. Try to use the dimmest light mode that is sufficient for the task at hand to maximize battery life.
Charging after use: It is recommended to fully charge the battery after use so that the lamp is always ready for the next use.

How to choose the right headlamp:
Choosing the right headlamp depends primarily on its intended use and the requirements you expect from the lighting. Consider the following factors when making your selection:

Light output (Lumens): Light output is expressed in lumens (lm). The higher the lumen value, the brighter the light the lamp produces. For general use and short-term tasks, a lower light output (less than 300 lumens) is often sufficient, while for more demanding tasks, dark conditions or to illuminate large areas, a significantly higher light output (more than 500 lumens) is required. For professional use, such as on construction sites or in rescue operations, 1000 lumens or more may be necessary.
Battery life and charging method: Battery life is a critical factor, especially for long-term tasks. Rechargeable batteries (Li-ion or Li-Po) are common in professional use, as they offer a good power-to-weight ratio and are more environmentally friendly than disposable batteries. Check the battery capacity (mAh) and the estimated operating time in different light modes. Also consider the charging method (USB, AC).
Protection class (IP code): The IP code (Ingress Protection) indicates the lamp's protection against dust and water. For professional use, especially when working outdoors or in humid conditions, it is important to choose a lamp with a sufficient protection class (e.g. IPX4 splash water protection or higher).
Comfort and weight: For long-term use, the weight and ergonomics of the lamp are important. The adjustable headband and balanced design help prevent neck strain. Lightweight materials increase comfort.
Light modes: Different light modes (e.g. bright, dim, flashing) increase the versatility of the lamp. The dimmer mode saves battery life for longer periods of use, while the bright mode provides maximum visibility. The warning flash can be useful in emergency situations.
Mounting options: Some headlamps have additional features, such as a magnetic mount that allows the lamp to be attached to metal surfaces. This is very convenient for maintenance work, for example.
Lighting angle adjustment: The ability to adjust the lighting angle is useful so that the light can be precisely focused on the desired object.
Durability and materials: Headlamps designed for professional use should be made of durable materials that can withstand impacts and wear.
Additional features: Some models may have additional features, such as a zoom function that allows you to adjust the width of the beam, or infrared light for night vision. Consider whether these features are necessary for your specific use.

Compare different models and their features in relation to your own needs and work environment. Invest in a high-quality and durable headlamp that meets the requirements of professional use.
