Summary: The LumiLight lights up everything at once, not just one spot like old headlamps. Here are 10 reasons people are dropping traditional headlamps for good.

REASON 1 

Lights Up Everything, Not Just One Spot

A traditional headlamp only lights one small spot. So you keep turning your head, or moving it with your hand, to point it where you're working. 

 

LumiLight lights up the whole area at once. You just look, and it's lit.

REASON 2

2.7x Brighter Than Old Headlamps

Old narrow-beam headlamps are dull and weak. LumiLight is 2.7x brighter. 

 

You can turn the brightness up or down, and there's a spotlight on the side too.

 REASON 3

Turn It On With a Wave

Normal headlamps make you press a button with dirty, cold or gloved hands. 

 

LumiLight turns on with a wave. Wave once for on, wave again for off. 

 

And if you're in a tight spot, you can switch the wave sensor off and just use the button, so the light stays on no matter what.

REASON 4

No More Buying Batteries

Normal headlamps run on batteries. They die when you least expect it, and you keep buying more. 

 

LumiLight charges with a USB cable, just like your phone. 

 

One charge lasts up to 8 hours. You never buy batteries again.

REASON 5

Lightweight & Comfortable

Old headlamps are heavy. The battery pack on the back drags down and hurts your neck. 

 

LumiLight weighs about 70g (2.4oz), less than half the weight of a modern smartphone. 

REASON 6

Built to Take a Knock

Cheap headlamps feel flimsy and break in a couple of months. 

 

LumiLight is made for real work. It's rated IPX4, so knocks, drops and rain won't kill it.

REASON 7

30% Off, Plus a Free Case While They Last

LumiLight is 30% off right now, and every one comes with a free hard case. 

 

The cases are nearly gone though, over 90% are already claimed, so once they're out, they're out. 

REASON 8

One Headlamp for Every Job

Big bulky headlamps are a pain to grab, so they end up in a drawer. 

 

LumiLight is the one you actually reach for. The car. The loft. Under the sink. The garden. A power cut. A lot of people buy a second one for the shed.

REASON 9

60-Day Guarantee

Try LumiLight on your own jobs for 60 days. If it's not the best headlamp you've owned, send it back.

 

You get your money back. No questions asked.

REASON 10

The One People Don't Replace

Old headlamps get binned and replaced within months. Not the LumiLight.

 

Over 220,000 people have switched to LumiLight. 

 

A 4.8 rating on Trustpilot from more than 3,000 five-star reviews can't be wrong.

"So the products are amazing!!! The headlight is BRIGHT and there are so many little ways it comes in handy - from the walk with a dog at night, to reading a book in bed, to looking in the garage for something that's under other things -- you will use it more than you think!!"

"Easy ordering, decent price and ability to track my package was important to me. LumiLight checked those boxes perfectly. The product is good looking and the carrying case is a thoughtful addition. I liked the products enough that I plan to order a few more to keep on hand in my gift stash. Thanks"

"I bought my mum a gift from Lumilight before Christmas which came quickly, was well packaged and she really loved it. I then bought myself some things which again arrived quickly and well packaged and smelled lovely. I would not hesitate to buy from this company again as they really make an effort to make sure everything goes smoothly and there products are great. 😊"

FAQS

How bright is it?

LumiLight delivers 350 lumens with a 230° wide-angle beam & spotlight. That's about 9 times brighter than an average phone torch.

Unlike narrow headlamps that only light a small circle, ours floods your entire workspace with bright, even light.

Will it slip or move around on my head?

No. The adjustable, lightweight strap stays put during any activity. Customers say "I forgot I was wearing it" - even during hours of work. It also fits over hard hats!

How long does the battery last?

The headlamp lasts 3hrs on the brightest setting and 8hrs on the lowest. It features a USB Type C connection to charge the battery during the day or whenever you're not using it.

Is it water-proof?

It's water-resistant (IPX4 rated), which means it handles rain, sweat, and splashes perfectly. Just don't submerge it underwater.

What's the returns policy?

60-day money-back guarantee. If you're not completely satisfied, return it for a full refund - no questions asked.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes - we provide a 60-day money back guarantee. If you change your mind, just reach out and we'll give you your money back.
