Klein Tools 56062 Rechargeable Headlamp and Work Light, 300 Lumens All-Day Runtime

The Klein Tools 56062 clips straight onto Klein hard hats that have the bracket system, so no strap is needed on those. If you want to wear it without a hard hat, or on a hat without the bracket, order the Klein Bracketed Strap, Cat. No. 56060, which the lamp also attaches to.

Runtime depends on which of the three modes you use: 4 hours at the 300 lumen Boost/all-on setting, 9 hours on the 215 lumen spotlight, and 14 hours on the 100 lumen floodlight. Crews working a full shift generally sit on flood or spot and save boost for pulling wire in a dark ceiling. A colored LED battery gauge on the lamp tells you what you have left before you head up the ladder.

Yes. There is a strong magnet on the back, so it sticks to a panel door, a strut channel, a stud plate, or any steel surface and works as a hands free work light. The mount also pivots up to a 64 degree angle, so you can aim the beam down into a junction box or up at a ceiling without moving the lamp.

It runs on a built-in rechargeable lithium-ion battery, charged through a USB-C cable that comes with it. There is no AA or AAA option, so on a long job either carry the cable or plan around the runtimes. Charging has to be done between 32 and 113 degrees F, so a truck box in a hard freeze is not the place to top it up.

The housing is ABS with a 6 foot (1.8 m) drop test rating, and it is dust and water resistant. At 2.6 oz (74 g) it is light enough on the brim of a hard hat that it does not pull the hat forward over a long shift.

Storage is rated from 14 to 131 degrees F (-10 to 55 C), so an unheated van in most climates is fine for storage. Operating and charging is a narrower window, 32 to 113 F (0 to 45 C), so bring it inside to warm up before you switch it on in a hard freeze.

The lamp body measures 2.60 inches long, 2.09 inches high and 1.42 inches wide. That slim footprint is what lets it sit flat against a hard hat brim rather than sticking out where it catches on ceiling grid or attic framing.

It is marked BC, CE, NR Can, REACH and RoHS. That covers the California and Natural Resources Canada energy marks plus the European CE and the RoHS and REACH material restrictions, which is usually what an institutional or government purchasing spec is asking for on a battery powered light.

Order by Klein Tools part number 56062. It is a single configuration, one lumen output package and one mount style, so every unit you buy matches what your crew already carries and works with the same 56060 bracketed straps.
