Compact power in Kangaroo tan or black: the 5.11 EDC HL2AAA

Keep your vision and stay mobile in any environment with the 5.11 EDC HL2AAA headlamp, here in the earthy Kangaroo colourway. A CREE XP-G3 LED behind a TIR optic pushes 183 lumens out to a 56 metre spot beam, all from a body light enough to forget you are wearing.

Spot and flood in one

Dual mode switches let you flip between a tight spot for distance and a wide flood for close-up work, with high and low levels on each. Spot-Max runs for up to 8 hours, and switching to the flood modes stretches runtime much further, so you can match output to the task.

Built to take a knock

The polymer housing and a revised, stronger battery door protect the internals from drops and bumps, it is shock rated to 2 metres, and IPX4 sealing keeps rain and splashes out. Power comes from just 2x AAA cells, so resupply is simple wherever you are.

Everyday-carry ready

Camping, repairs, dog walks or a power cut at home, the HL2AAA earns its spot in your kit. Browse more lighting and field gear in our tactical range.

Frequently asked questions

How bright is the HL2AAA?

On Spot-Max it delivers 183 lumens through a CREE XP-G3 LED and TIR optic, throwing a focused beam to around 56 metres. Lower spot and flood levels let you dial it back to save battery.

What batteries does it use?

It runs on 2x AAA batteries, which are included. AAA cells are inexpensive and available almost anywhere, making resupply easy in the field.

How long will it run?

Runtime depends on the mode: up to about 8 hours on Spot-Max, with the lower flood modes running considerably longer for extended tasks.

Is it weatherproof?

Yes. It is rated IPX4 for water resistance so it handles rain and splashes, and it is shock resistant to a 2 metre drop.

What colour is Kangaroo?

Kangaroo is 5.11's tan/coyote-style earth tone, a practical low-key colour that blends well with outdoor and field kit.
