FAQ

You've got questions, we've got answers (and lights!)

Here are some of the most common questions about these common-battery flashlights

Ask us anything

What batteries do these headlamps use?

Most of our AAA headlamps take 3 AAA batteries. The MORF R230 and R700 take 4 AAA, the Lookout 1000 and MORF L650 take 4 AA, and Twin Power models pair a built-in rechargeable battery with 3 AAA. Batteries are included with most models.

Should I get an AA or AAA headlamp?

AA batteries are larger and hold more energy, so AA headlamps like the Lookout 1000 can deliver more output. AAA headlamps are smaller and lighter, which makes them more comfortable for long wear and easier to pack.

What’s the brightest AA or AAA headlamp?

The Lookout 1000, at 1,000 lumens on 4 AA batteries. Among models that run on AAA batteries alone, the Blackout 615 tops out at 615 lumens.

What’s the difference between an LED and a COB headlamp?

COB (“chip-on-board”) is a type of LED. Many small LED chips mounted on one board produce a wide, even flood instead of a focused beam. COB is best for close-up tasks like reading or engine work, while a standard LED beam reaches farther. The Breakout 600 and Connector use COB, and the MORF R230 has both.

Are AA and AAA headlamps good for emergency kits?

Yes. Alkaline batteries store well and are easy to replace, so the headlamp is ready even after months in a drawer. For long-term storage, keep the batteries outside the headlamp to prevent leaks, and check them once a year.

AAA Headlamps

Our AAA headlamps are compact and light enough for all-day wear, and most run on three AAA batteries. The Ryder 500 and Breakout 600 include red night-vision modes for dark campsites and early mornings. The Breakout 600 and Connector use a COB LED, which spreads a wide, even flood for close-up work.

AAA Power With a Rechargeable Light

The Twin Power 550 and 800 charge over USB-C and also take 3 AAA batteries in a rear cartridge, so you have a second power source when the charge runs out. The MORF R230 and R700 run on 4 AAA batteries and have a front light that detaches for flashlight use.

AA Headlamps

For more output, the Lookout 1000 runs on 4 shelf-stable AA batteries and reaches 1,000 lumens. The MORF L650’s front light detaches into a magnetic flashlight or hangs as a lantern.

A Dependable Pick for Emergency Kits

Alkaline AA and AAA batteries hold their charge for years in storage and are sold almost everywhere. That makes these headlamps a reliable backup for power outages, car kits and go-bags.
